Little Big Town assert themselves as a vocal quartet with real power and attitude on their new album 'Tornado.' The project -- their most consistent and satisfying yet -- sheds the milquetoast midtempo exercises that bogged down previous albums in favor of ones with true grit.

As the genre pendulums between pop and traditional trends, Phillip Sweet, Kimberly Schlapman, Karen Fairchild and Jimi Westbrook have never compromised their unique harmonies or blunted their sharp, descriptive lyrics.

The tune was an instant smash for the four-piece group following its release, and it has also become the highest-charting single of their career.
