Nashville, Tenn. (Top40 Charts/ PLA Media) - Home Is Where the
Heart Is, the second release from Jadi Norris' Make Hay album, makes a strong debut becoming the most added country song on the New
Music Weekly chart. 'This song couldn't be any more opposite from my patriotic debut. I am excited to see radio embracing my 'honky-tonk-hillbilly-in overdrive' side!'' says a humble and appreciative Jadi.
Jadi's debut album has been making waves within the industry as well. Below is a review from the International Country Music Database.
Jadi has obviously learned how to write and pick strong songs that stand on their own as well as fit his voice nicely. All of the songs on this album are well worth taking a listen. Jadi isn't just about touching ballads. "Home is Where the Heart Is" is the exact opposite with its up-tempo kiss-off attitude! This song is just pure fun! In all, Make Hay is a strong debut album from a man who has honed his craft.
Jadi's zealous pursuit of life and the stage has seen its share of dark periods. A drunk driver nearly claimed his life resulting in countless back surgeries and a body pieced together with titanium. His friends jokingly refer to him as the 'Man of Steel' and Norris is happy to whip out his special issued medical card picturing an x-ray of his metal plated back. 'I set off every buzzer, bell, and whistle at airports,' he laughs.
That wasn't his only dark night as a bizarre incident at a hotel would prove to be his most trying situation. While showering, he slipped and fell hitting the soap dish chipping it into an unlikely weapon. It cut deeply into his right (guitar playing) arm hitting an artery. The damage to Jadi's arm was so severe he was told by multiple doctors that he'd never play guitar again. Undaunted, he hired a guitar player and kept entertaining. For the next three years, through tenacious determination, he re-taught himself to play guitar again. Jadi has since graced the stage alongside chart toppers Trace Adkins, Keith Urban, Reba McEntire, Toby Keith and Martina McBride.
