TN — The term, “highly anticipated”
is tossed around often in music press, but it can’t begin to describe

Right Beside You, the new album from Jeff White.
Music journalist, Jon Weisberger, has called Jeff White “one of Nashville’s under-sung heroes for more than two decades.”
White has performed on an unbelievable
roster of albums with artists including Vince Gill, Loretta
Lynn, Alison Krauss, Patty Loveless, Lyle Lovett, and The Chieftains, to
name a stellar few. Every
now and then, however, White finds time to surface as a front man, much
to the delight of savvy audiences, and he has recorded two previous,
highly-praised solo projects.
