New Big & Rich album 'Comin'' to stores in November
As country duo Big & Rich continue to hit concert venues on their "Deuces Wild" tour with fellow performers Brooks & Dunn and The Warren Brothers, the pair is set to release a new studio album on Nov. 15.
"Comin' to Your City," was produced by Big & Rich (John Rich and Big Kenny) and Paul Worley, chief creative officer for Warner's Nashville imprint, and also co-producer of Big & Rich's 2004 RIAA-certified double-platinum debut album, "Horse of a Different Color."
Like their first album, "Comin' to Your City" features a variety of guest performers. Kris Kristofferson lends his voice to the ballad "8th of November," described in a press release as "a true story about Vietnam vet Niles Harris and the fateful day on November 8, 1965, when the 173rd Airborne Brigade was ambushed by over 1,200 Vietcong during Operation Hump."
Big & Rich, Billboard Magazine's current New Country Duo/Group Artist of the Year, are currently on the road with the 34-city "Deuces Wild" tour, set to hit Camden, NJ, on Friday (8/19) and run through an Oct. 30.
During the "Deuces Wild" trek, tourmates Brooks & Dunn unveiled their new, state-of-the-art 576-square foot LED projection screen, which accompanies the live music with videos and new footage shot for the tour, according to a press release. Brooks & Dunn is working on the live production with visual director Marcia Kapustin, who has worked with U2, The Rolling Stones, Metallica, Paul McCartney, KISS and Elton John, among others.
