American Idol Finalist Josh Gracin Releasing New CD 'We Weren't Crazy' On April 1, 2008

NASHVILLE, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Lyric Street Records) - After selling more than 695,000 copies of his Gold-selling debut CD and delivering three consecutive top 5 singles to country radio, "American Idol" favorite Josh Gracin will release his highly anticipated sophomore album, We Weren't Crazy, on Tuesday, April 1, 2008.

Gracin wrote or co-wrote three songs on the new CD and is admittedly most excited about his newest single, the title track, "We Weren't Crazy." The autobiographical song was written by Gracin, Tony Lopacinski, and Bobby Pinson about Gracin's personal journey from childhood to raising children and having a family of his own. "This time around I got to dig in and share my stories as a songwriter. I'm so proud of how this song turned out," he said.

Josh Gracin's new CD, We Weren't Crazy allows audiences to take a more personal look inside the life of the "American Idol" season 2 finalist and former Marine. "This album is more me," says Gracin. "I was able to focus on making the album I wanted to make. For the first album, I was still in the service, so I had to fly in and out of Nashville to record when I could. This time around it had my undivided attention." Josh worked with producers Marty Williams and Brett James on the CD's eleven tracks.

Josh Gracin's debut album is certified gold by the RIAA and has sold over 695,000 copies. He's one of only three new male country singers to be introduced in the last four years to earn a gold album. Josh is also the only male solo country artist in recent years to release a debut album with three consecutive Top 5 country hits, including his first No 1, "Nothin' To Lose."
