One of the biggest and most anticipated releases is by one of music's best and most underrated vocal groups, Little Big Town. The cd, which is their fifth studio cd is called "Tornado" and based on the sales and popularity of their lead off single, the summer anthem "Pontoon", this one's gonna be a hot seller. The cd will be produced by Jay Joyce and will hit shelves on September 11. Just as a side note, "Pontoon" sold over 520,000 tracks in just 8 weeks! "Tornado" will showcase 11 songs, which include several written by Little Big Town including "On Fire Tonight", "On Your Side of the Bed", and "Night Owl".
We think this is the year that LBT will become more than passing song on the radio, they will make finally make their mark and snub the critics who said they didn't have what it took to become a major act. Who's cryin' now mister critic? Not LBT, they're laughing all the way up the charts.
Showdog Universal's hot newcomer, JT Hodges, has his baby blues set on major record sales with the release of his debut cd, "JT Hodges", due out on August 21. Trust me, this one's been a long time coming for Hodges fans and is gonna scream up the charts faster than Justin Beiber being chased at 100 mph in his exotic sports car by paparazzi, only difference being that Justin got stopped, JT won't be. With smooth, mellow vocals and a sexy, quiet demeanor, it's no wonder JT was voted one of country's hottest new male artists by Country People magazine. "Hunt You Down" got him noticed, "Goodbyes Made You Mine" solidified his place in music and the new music ahead is just as intriguing and sexy with songs like "Sleepy Little Town", "Green Eyes Red Sunglasses", "When I Stop Crying" and others. Side note: JT co-wrote 8 of the 10 tracks on the cd.
Other releases this summer that have fans anxiously waiting are "Whippoorwill" by Blackberry Smoke, "Declaration of Independence" by Colt Ford, "Love and Theft" by Love and Theft and "All Over the Road" by Easton Corbin.
