Jadi Norris Makes Hay With Debut Album Featuring His Chart Climbing Military Tribute

Nashville, TN (Top40 Charts/ PLA Media) - Jadi Norris, the rising country singer behind the patriotic Hail the American Soldier, premieres his debut album Make Hay at retail centers across the nation this Tuesday, July 27th. "Hail the American Soldier is a great song. Any station that's not on this one is making a mistake,' says Jim Patrick at KIKT in Greenville, TX. Truly living up to the lyrics in his first single, Jadi visited the Fort Carson Military base just outside Colorado Spring, CO a few weeks ago alongside country leaders Darryl Worley and Trent Tomlinson. They signed autographs and mingled with active servicemen and their families.

Make Hay features the patriotic tune alongside Jadi's contemporary rockabilly sound. Slated for a late summer release to country radio is the rowdy Home is Where the Heart Is. 'With the new single, people are going to get a really good taste of the energy I put into my live shows. This is my 'honky-tonk-hillbilly-in overdrive' side!"'

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. For current updates and news, go to www.myspace.com/jadinorris.
