The only way to live life is to go all in. At least that’s Criag Campbell’s take, as he prepares to release his new album “Never Regret” on May 7th.

This is Craig’s sophomore album, and he approached it a little differently than his first, which garnered such hits as “Family Man” and “Fish:”

By on April 18, 2013 in In The Press

April 17, 2013 – The Ram Truck brand is celebrating the end of its successful “Road to the Ram® Jam” all-star country music series which raised a total of $181,731 for charities with the auction of each participating artist’s Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn truck. The series concluded with Easton Corbin’s truck raising $37,101 for the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund, which honors Americans in our Armed Forces who have sacrificed life or limb defending our country by awarding college scholarships to their children.

As a part of the Road to the Ram Jam series, five participating country music artists – Kellie Pickler, Brantley Gilbert, Billy Currington, Zac Brown Band, and Easton Corbin – received a one-year lease on a 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn truck. The trucks were auctioned off, one at a time, beginning in late January with all proceeds benefiting a charity of each artist’s choice. Fans had two weeks to bid on each artist’s truck.

Gypsy Runaway Train Puts The Roys On Fast Track

By on April 18, 2013 in In The Press

THE ROYS latest full-length release, GYPSY RUNAWAY TRAIN, puts the award- winning sibling duo on the fast track.  Due in stores on June 4, their third outing for Rural Rhythm Records contains six Roys’ originals and some of their all-time favorite Bluegrass and Country classics.  Hot vocals, steamin’ pickin’, unbridled enthusiasm and passion make this 13-track wonder a celebration of the Roots genre.  Says Elaine Roy, “There was a real sense of freedom surrounding this whole project.  The album strips away all pretenses and gives the listener a glimpse of both the highs and lows of life.”

Recorded following the death of Lee’s beloved father-in-law and during Elaine’s painful divorce, the songs indeed address a broad spectrum of emotion.  For Lee, the entire process was cathartic.  “I wrote ‘Another Minute’ about my Grandpa,” he notes.  “But it makes you think about all kinds of loss.  Putting those feelings out there in a song makes it easier to live with them.”

“To come back and play on this field where I grew up cheering on the Bulldogs was a dream come true! And I got to return the favor and sing with some of the UGA football guys. I think we should both probably stick to our current career paths,” joked Thomas Rhett.
