New
Single Release - Steel Drivin', May 10, 2004
Richmond,
Virginia -
Pinecastle Records recording artist Michelle Nixon will release
her new single, "Joan Henry", to radio stations nationwide
on Monday, May 17.
"Joan
Henry", or simply referred to as "Joan" by the Drive gang,
is Nixon's follow up to her debut single, "Harlan", which
charted into the top 10 on the Bluegrass Unlimited singles
chart. Tom T. and Dixie Hall brought "Joan" to life when they
penned the steel drivin' song about the determined daughter
of American legend John Henry.
According
to the Halls, "Joan", much like Nixon, is filled with the
drive to succeed in every aspect of her life. Nixon, who cut
the song complete with steel clink effects, identifies with
"Joan" on many levels. "I like and relate to 'Joan' because
she is a strong woman [besides] the song is fun and catchy!"
Nixon says. "It is a huge favorite at my live shows and it
was just natural to release it as our next single."
"Joan"
is the second of two Tom T. and Dixie Hall original cuts on
Nixon's current project, "It's My Turn". The project, which
also includes songs written by country music artists Bill
Anderson and Steve Wariner as well as Nixon, charted to #12
on the Bluegrass Unlimited albums chart.
Listen
for "Joan", Nixon and Drive on radio stations across the country.
Look for Nixon to be featured on www.cmt.com
(New Voices No Cover) and as a featured artist at this
year's CMA's (Country Music Association) Music Festival (formerly
known as Fan Fair). For the latest news on and tour
