Attention all Jo Dee Messina fans: you’ll soon be able to enjoy some of her biggest hits in a brand new way.
Set for release on March 10 via Curb Records, Heads Carolina, Tails California: The Best of Jo Dee Messina features 11 of the country star’s most beloved tracks from throughout her accomplished career. The limited-edition, 180-gram clear vinyl with blue and orange flecks includes early No. 1 hits “Bye, Bye” and “Stand Beside Me,” alongside 2000s cuts like “My Give a Damn’s Busted.”
“It’s amazing to look back over a catalog and have so many songs with so many memories attached,” Messina says. “Now, to have them come out on vinyl? Wow! It’s a new way to hold those memories. It’s very exciting!”

The release of Messina’s first vinyl pressing continues a massive country music career renaissance for the 52-year-old talent, partially spurred by the success of Cole Swindell‘s playful 2022 tribute “She Had Me at Heads Carolina.”
After wrapping up a successful stint supporting Reba McEntire out on tour, Messina is gearing up for a busy spring and summer on the road. She’ll perform a mix of headlining shows and festival sets across the U.S., including appearances at April’s Two Step Inn and July’s Country Boom.
