CCMA Award Winning Country Artist Bobby Wills Releases
New Album June 24, 2014
– Alberta Native To Rock Nashville North During the Calgary Stampede –
Toronto, ON; May 20, 2014 – Following a
charitable performance during the Golden Globe® weekend, and winning his
second consecutive Alberta Country Music Association (ACMA) Male Artist
of the Year title earlier this year, Billboard chart-topping country
music artist Bobby Wills (MDM Recordings Inc. / Universal Music Canada) will release his third album Crazy Enough on June 24, 2014 (available at Canadian retail and on iTunes).
The 10-track album is a new blend of an intense mixture of
rock-inspired country tracks featuring a musical attack of the senses
with heavier percussion, contrasted with Wills’ signature melodic
harmonies and intimate lyrical storytelling.
Shares Wills, “I became a musician because I
was moved at a young age by the masterfully crafted songs found in
country music. With this album we set out to stretch our sound, and we
have done that by combining my traditional lyrical style with a more
melodic and hard-hitting production that takes the music to new
heights. I cannot wait to share it with the world!”
2014 has been an eventful year for singer, songwriter and philanthropist
Wills, starting off with inking a new deal with Canadian country music
label / distributor MDM Recordings Inc., and co-management with Mike
Denney and Mitch Merrett. Collaborating once again with Walt Aldridge
and Mike Pye, his debut single “Crazy Enough” peaked the Canadian charts
at #13 on both the BDS country spins and BDS country audience charts,
and was the #1 Mediabase most added song at country radio in February
2014. A committed humanitarian, Wills performed earlier this year
during the Golden Globe® awards weekend in Los Angeles as part of the 2nd annual Oh Canada Cocktail Party
to benefit the Friends of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. He
will be touring throughout Canada this summer, including an appearance
on July 11, 2014 at Nashville North during the Calgary Stampede.
