DARIUS RUCKER TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM ‘TRUE BELIEVERS’ MAY 21
(Toronto, ON. – 14 March 2013) – Capitol Records Nashville recording artist Darius Rucker will release his third country studio album, True Believers on May 21 via Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. Ten of the twelve tracks on True Believers were written by Rucker, and the album was produced by Frank Rogers. True Believers features the critically-acclaimed single “Wagon Wheel”, written by Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show, based on a sketch by Bob Dylan. “I’m very proud of this record,” Rucker reveals. “The songs, the co-writes, the vibe – it’s all really different from what we’ve recorded and released on the past two albums, and I hope that difference resonates with the fans.” Rogers, who also produced the Gold selling album Learn To Live and Charleston, SC 1966, shares: “When we were recording True Believers, we had Darius record a lot of the vocals for this album in his hometown of Charleston. I think as a result of that relaxed setting, he was more experimental vocally, and honestly, he sang better than ever before.” Rucker’s first two country albums, Learn To Live and Charleston, SC 1966 both topped the Billboard Country album chart and in 2009 Rucker was named New Artist of the Year at the CMA Awards. Most recently, he achieved a personal goal and childhood dream when he was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry on 16 October 2012.
