Country
Singer Greg Shirley Set to Release Debut Single and Accompanying
Video for "Hillbilly Girl," on October 14 from Garage Door
Records.
Chattanooga,
TN, USA (October 7, 2014) -- Chattanooga-based
label Garage Door Records announces an October 14 release and radio
add date for "Hillbilly Girl," the debut single from
country music singer Greg
Shirley, along with its accompanying video. The new
single, written by Jason Blaine McEwen and Willie Mack, precedes the
release of his first album, Raised on the Run, which will street in
late winter, 2015, and was produced by T.W. Cargile and Greg Shirley.
The
"Hillbilly Girl" video was directed by Lance Goodman for
The Beauty of Music Productions and perfectly captures the upbeat,
fun-loving spirit of the new single.
Supporting
Alabama-based Greg Shirley on his debut is a virtual "who's-who"
of Nashville players. Jim Moose Brown, a veteran
multi-instrumentalist who has lent his talents to recordings from
Waylon Jennings, Brad Paisley, Alan Jackson, and Bob Seger, plays
keys. Drummer Eddie Bayers has earned the prestigious Academy of
Country Music Drummer of the Year award for eight years straight.
Bassist Kevin "Swine" Grantt's resume includes work for
Toby Keith, Brad Paisley, Colt Ford, and Willie Nelson.
Co-producer
and engineer T.W. Cargile recorded Greg's vocals at Jamey Johnson's
Big Assed Studio in Nashville. The co-producer of Johnson's
Grammy-nominated "In Color," Cargile's track record with
Alabama-based songwriters is undisputed.
In
addition to Greg's own compositions, the forthcoming album includes
contributions from some of Nashville's most celebrated songwriters,
notably Bernie Nelson and Chris Wallin. Kenny Chesney, Chris LeDoux,
and Randy Travis have all taken Nelson's songs to the top of the
charts, and the smash, "Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind,"
earned him Million Airplay status in 2002. Wallin has enjoyed his
share of chart success as well: his recent "Something to Be
Proud Of" kept Montgomery Gentry at number one for weeks. His
songs have appeared on albums by everyone from Trace Adkins to
Confederate Railroad and Diamond Rio.
