Colt Ford Returns with Chicken And Biscuits

03/17/2010
.
Average Joes Entertainment announced plans today to release a sophomore album on flagship artist Colt Ford on Tuesday, April 20, 2010. The studio album, Chicken And Biscuits produced by Jayson Chance and Shannon "Fatshan" Houchins, is the follow-up to Ford's debut album, Ride Through The Country—Ford's 2008 release that successfully catapulted the country star to mainstream status after selling 150,000+ albums and over 450,000 paid song downloads. Country afforded Ford notoriety among artists like Randy Houser, Joe Nichols, Josh Gracin, Darryl Worley, Ty Stone, James Otto, DMC, Kevin Fowler, and more who appear on his sophomore effort.

"I never thought I could make a record like Chicken And Biscuits. I pushed myself so hard in writing and finding the songs for the record, and I was blessed to write with some of the greatest songwriters in the world. To be able to make a second album that I feel is better than the first and still maintain who I am as an artist...wow! That was my goal and I hope the fans agree because I gave it all I have," says Ford.

Ford, who is often mistakenly described as a 'country rapper,' has garnered national attention for his unique vocal delivery and fast-paced lyrical style. The self-proclaimed sexiest 300 lb. man in country music requested his friends lend vocals to many of the tracks that appear on the album as Ford admits, "I can't sing all that well, but I sure can have fun on stage, and performing over 200 shows last year taught me that fans are hungry for something different."

Ford first noticed that country music venues would feature live country music then, in between sets, the DJ would play urban and hip-hop music and that's when people would get on the dance floor. "I guess it was 2006 and my wife said to me 'you can make music like this only that speak to country folk about our way of life,' and that's what I've set out to do."

Ford joined Larry The Cable Guy and Jason Aldean for a series of dates in 2009, and although neither appear on the all-star line-up of featured guests on CHICKEN AND BISCUITS, Ford used inspiration from both tours and the fans to write the majority of the music for this album.
