LEBANON, TENN. (April 24, 2008) – Building on its reputation as a welcome home for country music artists, Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. will be the exclusive home of Aaron Tippin’s newest CD entitled He Believed. On sale at all Cracker Barrel locations beginning May 6, He Believed features six classic tracks and six recently recorded songs, including the title song which is Aaron’s incredibly moving tribute to his father.
“Although this CD is dedicated to my Dad, I hope it speaks to everyone who has had a mentor like he was to me,” says Tippin. “I am grateful to Cracker Barrel for believing in me and this music. I am honored to partner up with Cracker Barrel on this project that is so dear to my heart.”
Similar to his previous #1 hit records, Aaron and his wife, Thea, wrote several of the recently recorded songs on this record, including He Believed. The song is a touching story inspired by the unexpected death of Aaron’s father in 2005. The lyrics powerfully describe the emotional connection between Aaron and his father who was also his best friend and mentor. He Believed also features six of Aaron’s top recordings including: Working Man’s PHD, Whole Lotta Love On The Line and I Got It Honest.
“Cracker Barrel is pleased to work with an artist who shares our opinion that integrity and being of service to others is important,” says Peter Keiser, Cracker Barrel’s Vice President of Marketing. “This approach is summed up in the title of his hit song, ‘You've Got To Stand For Something,’ and working with Aaron on this very special CD project has been an honor and a pleasure.”
Available May 6 at all Cracker Barrel locations
and online at crackerbarrel.com, He Believed is a powerful addition to
Cracker Barrel’s growing collection of authentic country music. In the last
year, Cracker Barrel has released exclusive recordings by Alabama, Lonestar,
Josh Turner and Merle Haggard.
Country Music sensation Joe Diffie has signed with The Bobby Roberts Company, Inc. for exclusive Booking Representation.
Career highlights for Joe Diffie include 12 #1 Hits, over 20 top 10 hits, two platinum albums, 2 gold albums, a CMA with George Jones, a Grammy, and the Humanitarian Award.
