LEE BRICE STRIKES GOLD WITH “A WOMAN LIKE YOU”

ALBUM TITLE TRACK “HARD TO LOVE” AVAILABLE TODAY EXCLUSIVELY ON iTUNES

Appearances on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,”“The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson,” “Fox & Friends,”“Huckabee,” “The Better Show,” CNN’s “Showbiz Tonight,”and more all set for launch of new cd.

Nashville, TN (April 17, 2012) – Lee Brice’s single, “A Woman Like You,” has officially been certified Gold by the RIAA for sales of over 500,000 digital downloads. The hit single also rocketed to the #1 spot last week on both Billboard Hot Country Songs and Mediabase charts and currently resides in the Top 5 on the iTunes Country Songs chart. “A Woman Like You,” is the lead single from Brice’s forthcoming Curb Records album, Hard 2 Love, due out April 24.“A Woman Like You,” penned by Johnny Bulford, Phil Barton and Jon Stone, resonates with both men and women alike. The heartwarming yet honest song is a man’s response to his wife’s question about where he’d be if he hadn’t met her. Brice commented on the lyrics, “The girl in the song asks, ‘What would you do if you never met me?’ And the guy goes, ‘You want to know the truth? I’d probably be doing just what I was doing then, looking for you.’ He’s walking a thin line there for a minute, but then he’s able to hook it to say something every woman wants to hear…I think people dig it because the guy is being pretty darn honest.”

Hard 2 Love, Lee Brice’s much anticipated second album project for Curb Records is now within a one week launch perimeter with energy continuing to build at both radio and retail.

Retail will be further pumped by major Hard 2 Love, hard-to-miss national visibility for Brice on television. Appearances already confirmed include: Fox & Friends (Fox News Channel) - April 23; Tonight Show With Jay Leno (NBC)—May 1; The Better Show—May 2; Huckabee (Fox News Channel)—May 5; Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson (CBS)—air date to be advised. Additional major media is being set.

Hard 2 Love promises to live up to the pre-release buzz. With powerful vocals and top drawer songs, Lee Brice has assembled a stellar collection of songs he’s invested both professionally and personally with honest, raw emotion. Co-writing eight of the thirteen tracks, and sharing co-production credits with Kyle Jacobs, Jon Stone, Doug Johnson, and Matt McClure, Brice notes: “Everything on the album reflects who I am right now and where I am in my life.”

Hard 2 Love will street from Curb Records on April 24.

CURB RELEASES NEW SINGLE FROM LEE BRICE EXCLUSIVELY ON iTUNES

Current Single, “A Woman Like You” #2 on Billboard 

Brice Receives ACM Award for “Song of the Year”

Nashville, Tennessee – (April 3, 2012) – With his current single, “A Woman Like You” sitting just under the chart’s top perch at #2 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, Lee Brice is still three weeks away from his much-anticipated second Curb Records album release Hard 2 Love, scheduled to hit retail on April 24. Curb Records is building additional energy around the new album by releasing multiple singles in the weeks to come exclusively on the iTunes store.

The single, “I Drive Your Truck,” is now available for download exclusively on the iTunes Store (iTunes.com/LeeBrice). This heartfelt and passionate delivery from Brice was penned after one of the writers heard an interview with a couple whose son was killed a month after joining the military. The interviewer asked how in the world they dealt with the pain. They said they would drive his truck around and somehow they felt he was there with them and that pulled them through.

Brice commented on discovering this track, “I went around town and listened to a lot of songs, and one of the publishers said, ‘I know you’re looking for some lighter stuff, but I’ve got a song that we feel is the song of the year.’ They played it, and I started losing it in front of everybody. It just killed me. It made me think about my granddaddy, and everybody I’d lost.”

“A Woman Like You,” the lead single from the upcoming album has a blazing track record of more than 600,000 digital downloads. In addition, Brice performed an acoustic version of the song when he made his “Today” show debut and co-hosted the fourth hour with Hoda Kotb.

Hard 2 Love follows Brice’s critically-acclaimed debut album Love Like Crazy, which spawned Billboard’s Most Played Country Song of 2010 by virtue of its title track. Billboard remarkably repeated the honor in 2011 with the Brice-penned “Crazy Girl” hitting #1 for Eli Young Band racking up “most played” song numbers in the country genre. On April 1, Brice also picked up the coveted ACM Award for “Song of the Year” for his co-writing duties on the 2011 hit. Notable too in recent Billboard Hot Country Songs chart history, he also penned the only song to debut at #1 on the chart, Garth Brooks’ “More Than A Memory.”

The hit tunesmith behind the chart successes of top caliber fellow artists such as Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney, Jason Aldean, and Tim McGraw, Lee Brice has assembled the best of his creative songwriting and performance efforts for the much anticipated Hard 2 Love package. Leading with “I Drive Your Truck” hitting iTunes on April 3, Curb Records will announce two additional exclusive iTunes digital singles prior to Hard 2 Love reaching retail on April 24.

LEE BRICE: NEW ALBUM "HARD 2 LOVE" PROVES THE SUPERSTAR CAREER HE’S BUILDING IS NOW HIS OWN

New Single, “A Woman Like You,” Hitting High Notes with 45,000 Digital Downloads Weekly

(Nashville, Tennessee) -- March 6, 2012 – Lee Brice is poised on the industry high wire with his long-awaited second Curb Records album Hard 2 Love hitting retail on April 24. After much success as a hit songwriter for a litany of country music’s most virile chart toppers from Garth Brooks and Kenny Chesney to Jason Aldean and Tim McGraw, Brice is now focusing his creative talents on propelling his own emergence as a superstar.

Setting the stage for Brice’s spring 2012 breakthrough, is the new album’s first single, "A Woman Like You". Curb’s proven delivery system is currently on target in navigating the single into the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, closing in on gold certification with a blazing track record of 450,000 digital downloads already sold.

Hard 2 Love follows Brice’s critically-acclaimed debut album Love Like Crazy, which spawnedBillboard’s Most Played Country Song of 2010 by virtue of its title track. Billboard remarkably repeated the honor in 2011 with the Brice-penned "Crazy Girl" hitting #1 for the Eli Young Band racking up “most played” song numbers in the country genre, and recently being nominated by the ACM in the prestigious “Song of the Year” category. Notable too in recent chart history, Brice penned Garth Brooks' "More Than A Memory" — the only song in Billboard history to debut at the top of the Hot Country Songs chart.

Undeniably, Lee Brice’s focus on center stage with the new studio project is built on a massive platform of success as one of Nashville’s hottest hit writers. Add to the mix the obvious facts that pure, authentic vocal talent and rough-hewn good looks are the ingredients for superstardom, and the South Carolina native is a rising talent well-worth the career investment to move his imaging pushpin from Curb Music Publishing hit songwriter to full blown major Curb label artist. His strategic branding with a new legion of fans has produced a solid following on 2010-2011 high-exposure runs in concert with Willie Nelson, Jamey Johnson, Luke Bryan, and Jerrod Niemann.

Hard 2 Love boldly showcases what all the excitement is about. Powerful vocals and top drawer songs provide a stellar collection that invests Brice both professionally and personally with honest, raw emotion. “Everything on the album reflects who I am right now and where I am in my life,” he noted in a recent interview.

Songs such as "Parking Lot Party", "Beer", and "Life Off My Years" portray the nuts and bolts realism of the “man’s man” spin on life in today’s reality series-driven culture. The title track "Hard To Love", "A Woman Like You", "Ring In My Pocket", and "One More Day" shed a more personal insight into the heart of the man and the creative, personal journey he’s on.

Co-produced by Lee Brice, Kyle Jacobs, Jon Stone, Doug Johnson, and Matt McClure, some of Nashville’s finest writers have been marshaled into creative service on Hard 2 Love with Lee’s major league troop “A-Team” writing buddies including Billy Montana, Jerrod Niemann, John Ozier, Jon Stone, and Eric Church.
