The debut single from Jamey Johnson’s forthcoming album is entitled “My Way To You.” The song, co-written by Johnson and Charlie Midnight, has hit radio stations across the country this past month.Today, August 3, “My Way To You” will be available as a FREE download at www.jameyjohnson.com. On August 11, the digital e-single will be available for download at iTunes and all other digital partners.
The follow-up album to Johnson’s critically acclaimed That Lonesome Song will hit stores this fall and will also be released on vinyl.
In April, Johnson won his second ACM Song of the Year honor. This time, it was for a song he had written and recorded. “I was just happy to be there,” says Johnson. “If I’d ended up going home without a trophy, I wouldn’t have cared. That just floored me – for them to say “In Color” was their Song of the Year and it wasn’t even a Number One record – it was a very special thing.”
Right after the ACM accolade came the news that That Lonesome Song had been certified Gold. When asked did he ever dream about getting a Gold Record as a kid growing up in Montgomery, AL Johnson responds, “Hell, I never even dreamed of it as an adult. When we found out the album went Gold, I said, ‘We’re going to need a whole lot of plaques because I want to be able to give them out to everybody.’”
When Johnson isn’t in the studio working on the new album, he is on the road performing for sold-out crowds. “The road is where it’s at,” says Johnson. “I love it. That’s where you take country music. You don’t get the message out there by sitting at the house.”
