Country Radio Falls In Love With Clay Walker's New Single

Nashville, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Curb/ Asylum Records) - When Clay Walker's title track from his forthcoming album FALL went for adds at radio stations across America this Monday, Clay was delighted when he received word that his single was the second most added song at R&R and Mediabase stations.

'When we recorded 'Fall' in the studio Keith [Stegall], he stood up and high-fived the engineer when we got done with the vocal and I thought, that's the first that I've ever seen that, maybe he was just glad that I got all the lyrics right,' Walker says with a laugh. 'The biggest thing that I wanted to do was to just get songs on the radio and make music that people love. I wanted to continue the style they've known me for and not change things too much because the music we've made in the past is good music.'

Clay's new label feels strongly about the response from radio, too. 'Stations are honestly falling for Clay's new single which is great with his album coming out next week. Clay says it's his favorite song on the album and I have to agree, so far audience response to this song has been phenomenal,' says Carson James, Sr. VP Promotion, Curb Records.

Clay's eighth studio album, and first on Curb/Asylum Records, FALL, is slated to hit stores on Tuesday, April 17th nationwide. It has been over four years since his last release, and for Clay, who has 11 number one country hits to date, including recent success with the Top 20 single ''Fore She Was Mama,' that's too long!

'I trust my gut more than ever now,' Clay says. 'I definitely don't feel like a rookie, but at the same time, I think the best years of my recording career are ahead of me.'

Clay has placed 32 titles on Billboard's Top Country Songs chart total, with 15 of them climbing to the top ten. For liner notes, additional information, and upcoming television appearances visit www.claywalker.com.
