Jennifer Nettles

Jennifer Nettles' new solo album is a round peg too big for country music’s square hole. Actually, ‘That Girl’ is sort of a zig-zaggy shaped object that doesn’t fit neatly within any genre’s stingy requirements. Jazz, blues, country, big band, Broadway, classic rock … Nettles dabbles.

Jennifer Nettles stopped by The Late Show With David Letterman' on Tuesday night (Jan. 14) to perform the song 'Falling' from her just released solo album, 'That Girl.' But the Sugarland singer didn't just perform. She showed off a sexy, modern new look that without a doubt turned heads.

It's a big day for Jennifer Nettles, who is paving the way into a solo career. Her album 'That Girl' streets Tuesday (Jan. 14), and to boost excitement, she stopped into the 'Today' show to deliver a performance of a new song, 'Falling.'

As we welcome 2014, there is a lot of great country music to look forward to. Here's just a sample of what new music is coming up early in 2014.

It's been a crazy year for Jennifer Nettles. Son Magnus turned a year old, the country songstress ventured out on a solo career and she and her husband are in the process of moving into a new home. Needless to say, Nettles is a little behind on Christmas.

Sugarland singer Jennifer Nettles is in love with being a mom – that's abundantly clear. Her son Magnus Hamilton Miller just celebrated his first birthday (Dec. 6) and has brought tons of joy into mommy's life. She revealed that she and husband Justin Miller have plenty of noodly nicknames for their firstborn.

If you can't pick your favorite holiday carol, why not pick two? Jennifer Nettles finished out the 2013 'CMA Country Christmas' special with a medley of 'Christmas Time Is Here' and 'Winter Wonderland.'

Diva alert! Jennifer Nettles -- who served as the host of the 2013 'CMA Country Christmas' on Monday (Dec. 2) -- sang many songs through the evening. But perhaps her most powerful moment was her absolutely gorgeous duet with soul singer Mary J. Blige, 'Do You Hear What I Hear?'

Jennifer Nettles was one busy woman at the 2013 'CMA Country Christmas' special. Not only did she open the show with 'What Christmas Means to Me,' she also hosted the holidayevent and joined Christian singer Michael W. Smith to sing 'Christmas Day.'

Jennifer Nettles has demonstrated through her single and title track 'That Girl' that her upcoming solo album will be one fans should be eagerly anticipating. Now, two more pieces of the puzzle -- the album art and track listing -- have been revealed.

Sugarland frontwoman Jennifer Nettles, announced via Twitter on Monday (Nov. 5) that her solo album finally has a release date. The album, 'That Girl,' will be Nettles' first without her Sugarland bandmate Kristian Bush and is set for release on Jan. 14.

Artists like LeAnn Rimes and RaeLynn spoofed other country stars on Halloween 2013. 'The Voice' singer took a playful jab at Blake Shelton circa 2002, while Rimes and husband Eddie Cibrian dressed as Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers circa 1983. The most adorable costume pictures, of course, came from the new parents. Hillary Scott, Jennifer Nettles and Chely Wright all shared photos of their tots on

Jennifer Nettles' solo single 'That Girl' has a funky yet sultry feel, with confessional lyrics and a touch of danger. Better yet, the video does not disappoint in showing off the singer's remorseful side.

If you follow Jennifer Nettles on Twitter, watch what you say. The songstress doesn't put up with negativity -- in fact, if she sees it, she'll call you out.
