===Nashville move===
Afterwards, Austin moved to [[Nashville, Tennessee]], to pursue a career in country music. Her first solo contract was with [[Arista Nashville]], with the album ''[[Words (Sherrié Austin album)|Words]]'' being released in 1997. It produced singles in "Lucky in Love", "One Solitary Tear", "Put Your Heart into It", and "Innocent Man". "Lucky in Love" and "Put Your Heart into It" both reached Top 40 on the country charts with a peak of No.&nbsp;34 each.

Her second and final album for Arista was 1999's ''[[Love in the Real World]]'', led off by the No.&nbsp;29 "Never Been Kissed", which was followed by "Little Bird". After RCA acquired Arista Records, Austin's publishing company, Reynsong Publishing, formed Wrensong Entertainment and signed to [[Madacy Entertainment]] for her next album, ''[[Followin' a Feelin']]'', which produced another single in its lead-off single, a cover of [[Dolly Parton]]'s "[[Jolene (song)|Jolene]]".

Later, she switched to the independent [[Broken Bow Records]] label. Her fourth album of country music, titled ''[[Streets of Heaven (album)|Streets of Heaven]]'', produced her biggest country hit in its [[Streets of Heaven (song)|title track]]. Following this single was "[[Son of a Preacher Man]]", a cover of the [[Dusty Springfield]] song, which was never included on an album.
