Sawyer Brown is a ‘Travelin’ Band’

Celebrating their 30 year anniversary this year, Sawyer Brown releases their 23rd album, Travelin’ Band, today (October 10th, 2011). The CD, featuring the lead-off single “Smokin’ Hot Wife,” has been in the works for the past couple of years.

“We’ve been working on this album so long that they were still called albums when we started working on it,” jokes lead singer, Mark Miller, who also produced the CD.

Travelin’ Band features new songs by Miller and bandmate Hobie Hubbard, as well as songs by Tom Douglas, Jeffrey Steele, and Love and Theft’s Stephen Barker Liles.

“We’ve been blessed to be making records for about 26 years now,” Miller said, “and the great thing about taking some time between the last CD and this one is that it gave us more time to write and to listen to a lot great songs from our songwriting buddies. And, as we’ve found out over the years, there’s no better place to try out new songs than on the road–and you know we’ve never been shy about going on the road.”

The physical CD for Travelin’ Band is available exclusively through SawyerBrown.com and the band’s live events. It is available for digital download on iTunes, with Amazon, Rhapsody, Spotify, Napster and others coming soon.

Riverfront at CMA Fest: Chuck Wicks & Sawyer Brown

We squeezed a couple of Riverfront concerts into our packed schedule at CMA Fest this year. We managed to catch Sawyer Brown and Chuck Wicks, and believe me…they were both worth enduring the excruciating heat.

Friday, we saw Sawyer Brown, and if you’ve never caught these guys on the road…SHAME ON YOU!!! They are fantasic. Not only do they have a zillion hits under their built you can sing-a-long too, Mark Miller is a very entertaining dancer. I took a zillion pictures of them.

Chuck Wicks is more than just the guy who sang “Stealing Cinderella.” He’s a great songwriter and singer, and he proved himself in the sweltering heat on Sunday as he took the Riverfront stage.

You can see all of our pictures here.
