CHASE RICE SURPRISES FANS WITH NEW MUSIC:
THE ALBUM PART I
Seven-Song Project Includes Current Single “Lonely If You Are”
Rice to Perform “Lonely If You Are” on ABC’s “The Bachelor” This Monday, January 27 at 8/7c
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Multi-Platinum entertainer Chase Rice surprised fans with the release of eagerly-awaited new music, dropping The Album Part I today, Friday, Jan. 24, with Part II to follow in 2020. Listen HERE.
As evidenced by its emphatic title, the project reflects what Rice considers to be his most defining release to date.
“I chose to call this The Album because it’s the first thing I would encourage someone to listen to if they want to know who I am as an artist,” explains Rice. “My career has been such a rollercoaster journey, but it’s all led to this moment and these songs. So much of what I’ve learned, so much of what I’ve fought through – it’s all reflected in this music.”
Having teased new music since topping the charts for back-to-back weeks with the No. 5 most-played Country song of 2019 and digital streaming monster (330M+), “Eyes On You,” Rice was eager to release new music now after seeing the fan response at his concerts both in the U.S. and internationally.
“‘Eyes On You’ and ‘Lonely If You Are’ were both huge for us at our live shows before they were even on the radio,” notes Rice. “We’ve recently started mixing in newer songs at our shows – sometimes within a day or two of writing them – and we can feel how passionately the fans respond. It’s clear that they’re eager for more new music, so we wanted to kick off the new year with this surprise!”
The new seven-song digital project includes current single “Lonely If You Are” alongside six never-before-heard tracks:
