Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis make up one of Americana's most beloved couples and vocal pairings, but their latest release finds comfort in being alone.
"Nobody's Perfect," the debut single from the husband and wife's forthcoming duets album Beautiful Lie (out on June 21 via Robison's The Next Waltz label), centers on a jilted lover who swears off romance until they can find someone who's worth the trouble.
"Nobody won't say they love you when they know it just isn't true," the couple sings. "I could get used to nobody, 'cause nobody's nothing like you."
Willis says the boisterous song is made to be shared on an outdoor stage.
"This song has a big dumb electric guitar vibe that feels very fun and anthemic," Kelly Willis tells Wide Open Country. "I'm dying to play it on a big outdoor stage. Cleverly written by one of our favorite songwriters, Adam Wright."
Listen to "Nobody's Perfect" below.
Beautiful Lie is the follow-up to Willis and Robison's 2014 duets album Our Year. The album was produced by Robison at the Bunker, his all-analog studio in Lockhart, Texas.
