In 2000, Harris released her solo follow-up to "Wrecking Ball", "Red Dirt Girl", produced by Lanois protégé Malcolm Burn. For the first time since "The Ballad of Sally Rose", the album contained a number of Harris's own compositions. Like "Wrecking Ball", the album's sound leaned more toward alternative rock than country. Nevertheless, it reached No. 5 on Billboard's Country Albums chart as well as a healthy No. 54 on the pop side. It also won Harris another of her 13 Grammy awards, in the category of Best Contemporary Folk Album.
