"Hidin' Out" is a song by American country music singer Patsy Cline. It was composed by Eddie Miller and W.S. Stevenson. It was released as the second single in Cline's career and second issued on Coral Records. It originally appeared on the album, Songs by Patsy Cline.
After several years of regional performers around her hometown of Winchester, Virginia, Patsy Cline signed her first recording contract in 1954 with 4 Star Records.[2] In early 1955, Cline traveled to Nashville, Tennessee, where she made her first recording sessions with producer Owen Bradley. Because it was believed she had a "pop sounding" voice, Bradley (who had pop experience) was chosen as her producer. Cline recorded "Hidin' Out" in her second recording session with Bradley, which took place on June 1, 1955. The session was held at the Bradley Film and Recording Studio in Nashville. Also cut in the same session was "Turn the Cards Slowly," "A Church, a Courtroom, Then Goodbye" and "Honky Tonk Merry Go Round." The song was composed by Eddie Miller and W.S. Stevenson (a pen name for Bill McCall), both of whom also composed additional material Cline cut during the same session.[3]
