Josh Gracin Josh Gracins life overflows with extraordinary, character-building stories. But, first and foremost, hes well-known because hes an undeniably talented singer and entertainer. So, here are the facts that matter most: Hes one of only two new country artists in recent times to release a debut album with three Top 5 country hits including the No. 1 hit Nothinto Lose). Hes also one of only two new male country singers to be introduced in the last two years to earn a gold album, and Gracins self-titled debut is quickly edging in on platinum status. Its been an amazing couple of years, says the broad-shouldered former Marine with the dark eyes and bright smile. Country music fans have been really receptive and encouraging. I feel like, for a first step, we did really well. But it was just a first step. For his next step, Gracin wanted to make a bigger, bolder stride. His sophomore album does just that. Its a clear, powerful move forward that emphasizes all the energy, humor, outspokenness and depth that makes Gracin one of the great musical discoveries of his generation. This album is more me, says the Michigan native with strong blue-collar roots and a make-it-his-way attitude. 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 to record when I could. It had my undivided attention. And it shows. The young star known for his energetic stage performances made sure his new work focused on his strengths: live-wire, rocking country that blends wit and wholesome fun; inspiring story songs about being true to yourself; moral tales rich with Middle-American values and a strong spiritual core; and songs that celebrate the down-to-earth lifestyle that Gracin pursues and personifies. I wanted this album to reflect my energy and my values, he says. Theres nothing I love more than getting a crowd on its feet and getting them to sing along and rock with me to a great song. I also wanted songs of substance that really explain who I am and what I stand for. And thats what I hope that weve accomplished. The album includes such high-speed, fun-filled romps as the first single, Favorite State of Mind, which opens with an explosive drum roll and a rowdy blast of down-home rock while paying tribute to the notion that sometimes the greatest vacation is time alone with the one you love.
