Warner Bros. Records multi-platinum duo Big & Rich is set to put forth their third studio release, Between Raising Hell And Amazing Grace, June 5th. Their debut book, Big & Rich: All Access, will hit shelves the same day.
Big & Rich kicked off the releases with an appearance on NBC's Today Show Summer Concert Series on June 1st, where they performed the fastest-rising single of their career, "Lost In This Moment," which is quickly becoming the hottest wedding song of the season.
The much-anticipated album is also highlighted by guest performances from John Legend, who lends vocals to the track "Eternity," as well as Wyclef Jean, who wrote and recorded a rap for "Please Man." Lil Jon also adds his own personal touch to the "Country Club" re-mix of "Loud," available as a bonus track at iTunes when you pre-order the deluxe version of Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace.
This past weekend, Big & Rich's image appeared on no less than 500 million Pepsi cans, the design of which Big & Rich unveiled at the downtown Nashville Hard Rock Cafe during CMA Music Fest.
Big & Rich's All Access podcast, "the ultimate backstage pass to the hottest act in country music," is now live in iTunes. Fans are invited to subscribe for free and listen to the first episode, "Country Music Without Prejudice," now. The next episode, "MuzikMafia," drops this week. Stay tuned for all six installations. Big & Rich's "Soundcheck" is also now live at Walmart.com. Tune in for exclusive interview footage and in-studio performance footage of songs from all three of Big & Rich's albums.
The world was introduced to the genre-bending super-duo with the release of their May 2004 triple-platinum, #1 debut release Horse Of A Different Color, which spawned such hits as "Save A Horse (Ride A Cowboy)," "Holy Water" and "Big Time." Their follow-up CD, Comin' To Your City, was released in November 2005 and has also achieved platinum status, fueled by hits like the title track and the much-nominated "8th of November."
Both John Rich and Big Kenny have been crowned songwriters of the year by their respective performing rights organizations. Big Kenny is the 2005 BMI Songwriter Of The Year, and recently scored his first #1 hit for Tim McGraw's "Last Dollar." John Rich is the ASCAP Songwriter/Artist of the year two years running, and has penned #1 hits for Gretchen Wilson, Faith Hill, and Jason Aldean. Rich is also a prolific producer, having worked with John Anderson, Cowboy Troy, Randy Owen, Jewel, Gretchen Wilson and many more.
