April 28, 2009 — More than two years after he released his debut album, Jason Michael Carroll has a new CD in stores on Tuesday with Growing Up Is Getting Old.
Once again, the project teams him with producer Don Gehman, noted for his work with John Mellencamp and Hootie + The Blowfish, and with those connections in mind, it’s appropriate that the art work on the Growing Up sleeve has a classic-rock feel to it.
"First time I looked at it, I thought, ‘You know what, that is such a cool cover,’" Jason says. "Especially bein’ in a country market, because that’s more of a Bob Seger kind of cover. It just looks more like a early, mid ’70s, retro kind of album cover, and I love that! I think that’s one of the coolest things about it. That’s why I think it’s probably gonna stand [out on] the shelves hopefully."
The album’s first single, "Where I’m From," found its way into country’s Top 20. In the meantime, Jason is finding his way to Lebanon, Tenn., for launch day. He’s flying the 30-mile distance via "Hello Copter" to do an acoustic mini-concert at a local Wal-Mart. He’s also featured on the Tuesday edition of GAC Nights at 8 p.m. ET.
