Gretchen Wilson's new record 'Ready to Get Rowdy' will hit the streets on June 16 on Redneck Records.

Gretchen Wilson remembers hearing herself on the radio for the first time.

Her inspiration for the career-making song is surprising.

Gretchen Wilson’s phone keeps buzzing during an interview with Taste of Country. The “Redneck Woman” singer is back in demand since announcing the end of her two-year hiatus, so that means more media, more meetings and definitely more phone calls.

"Rowdy" is the same old Gretchen Wilson, but for her fans that's not such a bad thing. The thick country-rocker is a party song that doesn't lack honesty.

Gretchen Wilson admits that while her hit song "Redneck Woman" was skyrocketing up the airplay charts she didn't feel like she fit in. Years later she'd tell Taste of Country that at the time, she felt underdressed for a black tie party. It's now clear the guests at that party were happy she injected new energy into their predictable sound.

If you’ve got $1.7 million and are looking for a spacious, rustic mansion where country artists have recorded, Gretchen Wilson has the place for you.

On June 21, 2004, Wilson struck gold -- and platinum.

Shelbie Z showcased her powerful stage presence on American Idol earlier this week. In the Top 24 solo round, she impressed with an edgy cover of Gretchen Wilson's "Work Hard, Play Harder."

It's been 10 years since Gretchen Wilson took the country music world by storm with her debut album, 'Here for the Party,' and in an interview with Taste of Country during 2014 CMA Awards week, the star shares memories of her very first CMAs.

Gretchen Wilson soared to the top of the charts and made her country music debut with her Grammy Award winning song "Redneck Woman" in 2004. Her first album "Here For The Party" seemed to set the pace for the next three years in her fast rising career.
