NASHVILLE, TN (January 28, 2015) – Platinum-selling country star Kristian Bush brings his voice to the forefront with his highly anticipated debut solo album, SOUTHERN GRAVITY,
to be released April 7 on Streamsound Records. Drawing on his proven
skills as a hit-making performer, writer and producer, the record builds
on the catchy, radio-friendly vibe of lead single “Trailer Hitch” and
showcases Bush as a recording artist at the top of his craft.

“I love this album. The songs on SOUTHERN GRAVITY feel
like home to me, and I am proud and excited to share them, finally.
They are your stories as much as they are mine, and I hope you hear
yourself in here, no matter if you are standing up, falling down, or
dancing in between the pieces of your life,” said Bush.
For
his solo debut, the GRAMMY Award winner teamed with friend and producer
Tom Tapley, as well as executive producer Byron Gallimore (Sugarland,
Faith Hill, Tim McGraw), to hone SOUTHERN GRAVITY’s
groove-heavy mainstream country sound. Bush is a co-writer on each of
the album’s 12 tracks, including collaborations with legendary Nashville
songwriters like Bob DiPiero, Paul Overstreet, Tom Douglas and more.
The
feel-good lead single “Trailer Hitch” – now Top 25 and rising at radio
— was released to rave reviews from music critics, radio, and fans
alike. Named USA Today’s “Song of the Week,” the track was also featured in ROLLING STONE Country’s TOP 25 SONGS OF 2014 and iTunes
BEST OF 2014 – COUNTRY SONGS. The infectious tune has racked up
millions of streams to date, and its inspiring lyrics sparked Bush to
partner with Goodwill Industries International for the #GiveItAway campaign to encourage donations of used clothing and goods.

surpassing sales of over 22 million albums worldwide, achieving five No.
1 singles and winning numerous awards, including GRAMMYs, AMAs, ACMs,
