Austin, TX. (Top40 Charts/ Equity
Music Group) - Rousing country artist
Kevin Fowler, whose upcoming release, BRING IT ON (September 25; Equity
Music Group), is already generating a big cyber-buzz, has begun a CD release tour to bring his pure, working-class country sound to venue-packing fans across
Texas and in Oklahoma.
Starting this week, Fowler and his band play big venues around Texas and in Oklahoma - from county fairgrounds and festivals to parks and raceways - with songs from the upcoming album. Cuts like the funny family-of-origin lament "Long Line of Losers," which hit No 19 in its first week on The Texas Music Chart and has been played more than 55,000 times at Fowler's MySpace page. Other songs, including the title track, "Best Mistake I Ever Made" and "Me and the Boys," his duet with superstar George Jones, are revving up Fowler fans into a frenzy.
BRING IT ON, produced by Blake Chancey, doesn't follow Fowler's typical album MO. This time, he's added screaming guitar and a heavy drum beat to his traditional country fare, a new sensibility to keep himself and his fans on their toes. It's not surprising to learn that Fowler has sold more than 250,000 records independently and that Jones, Mark Chesnutt and Sammy Kershaw have recorded his songs.
