August 26, 2009 — It wouldn’t be surprising if Jack Ingram were on vocal rest today — not for singing too much, but simply for talking. The country rocker spent Tuesday, Aug. 25 talking non-stop about himself and his new album, Big Dreams & High Hopes, in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for "Most Consecutive Radio Interviews in a 24-Hour Period."
Did he do it? You bet! Jack more than shattered the previous record of 96 interviews by doing an astounding 215 interviews across most of the 50 states and parts of Canada, Ireland and Australia.
"After the last 24 hours, I officially have nothing left to say," declared Jack.
Jack started the day at 8 a.m. in New York City at the base of the Brooklyn Bridge and wrapped up his talking marathon with a performance of his Top 10 single, "Barefoot And Crazy" on Fox & Friends.
Jack will continue singing tonight in his home state of Texas, with concerts in Dallas tonight and Austin tomorrow. He finishes the week opening three shows for Toby Keith in California.
