Missy Raines & Allegheny announce the release of their new album Love & Trouble out today on Compass Records.

Missy Raines & Allegheny kick off an 18 date tour with the release of "Eula Dorsey," the second single from their upcoming album Love & Trouble. Co-written by Missy and Tony Rackley, the song draws its inspiration from Appalachian ballad tradition and tells the fictional tale of a Scottish immigrant making her way in 1800s West Virginia. Missy describes it as a twist on the "Knoxville Girl" model, saying that she wasn't interested in making another woman a victim in another song.
