Dec. 11, 2008 — Jimmy Wayne had to wait five years from the release of his first album until he was finally able to get a second one out. Not surprisingly, he hasn’t got a clue what to expect over the next five years.
"I try not to think about that," he told the national radio show GAC Nights: Live From Nashville. "I just try to think about the songs I’m writing now and get out and give the fans exactly what they spend their hard-earned money on, just try to give them some great songs. Really, that’s really what I’m focused on 100 percent of the time. I wake up thinking about it. I go to bed thinking about it. I’m totally a different person now, I would say, than I was 10 years ago when I first moved to Nashville."
Jimmy’s current single, "I Will," is in the Top 30 on the USA Today Mediabase country singles chart.
Jimmy was out and about Tuesday night at a Christmas party at the Music Row offices of William Morris, one of the industry’s most-powerful booking agencies. Also spotted at the party: Chuck Wicks, SHeDAISY, Clint Black, Lisa Hartman Black, Bryan White, Love And Theft and at least one member of Whiskey Falls.
