EP REVIEW: "PART ONE" - RICK MONROE
CD: "Part 1"
Artist: Rick Monroe
Label: Render Records
Release Date: May 2012
CLICK TO PURCHASE "PART ONE" ON ITUNES
We've been following Rick Monroe for almost 4 years now and we're so happy to see him finally starting to get the recognition he's been long deserving. He has a new EP, "Part One", a new label, Render Records, and is kicking off a new tour with Randy Houser, the 2012 Jagermeister Tour this summer.
Rick is pure, raw country and not ashamed of it. His music is honest, his live show is like an explosive ignition of a powder keg and he gives it his all each and every time. He wouldn't have it any other way and this cd is no different. This cd is all Rick ... his personality, his heart and his country soul. The first track on the cd, "Crazy Not To" should have just been the title to this EP because you'd be crazy not to buy it. The track is fresh and sincere and hopefully country radio will pick up on this and give us a breath of air in the staleness that is today's country. Rick covers the gamet on this EP with tenderness, a little raucousness, and a lot of honest country. From the simple yet direct message of "Just the Same", to the emotional ballad "Baby Angel" to the foot stompin', wall rockin' "Hammer Down", Rick makes sure to touch on each emotion and every feeling.
If you've listened to Rick's previous releases and then listened to this one, then you can hear the obvious musical maturity that seems to come with each cd released. It seems Rick's found his sweet spot and has found his stride with this EP. Go get your copy on iTunes now, you'd be crazy not to.

Rick Monroe Releases New single, "Crazy Not To" to Retail and Radio with New 5 Track EP, "Part 1" Coming May 1st.
Country music sensation Rick Monroe has released his new single, "Crazy Not To on Render Records. The single will be included on the artist's new 5 track EP entitled Part 1 which will hit retail May 1.
In related news, Monroe begins a new Jagermeister Presents Tour April 26th in support of Randy Houser. Rick is a country music road warrior who isn't opposed to taking his music directly to his fans, one venue at a time, one handshake at a time. This is Rick's fifth Jagermeister Tour.
Monroe's music videos have been seen on CMT and GAC and he's been profiled on shows including Access Hollywood, ET and Extra. He's opened for the likes of Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, Josh Thompson Pat Green, Charlie Daniels, Dwight Yoakam and Montgomery Gentry. Rick's 2011 hit single release, "Get UR Country On" spawned a "Jagermeister Presents" Club tour of the same name.
Fans can hear and purchase the track on iTunes at:

Commenting on the 2012 Jagermeister tour with Randy Houser, Rick Monroe said, "I am absolutely thrilled to be on the road doing what I love to do best. We'll be out there in support of my new single 'Crazy Not To' so I look forward to performing that tune as well as all of the songs from my new Render Records EP -- Part 1 -- live in front of packed houses... and shaking hands with as many country music fans as possible."
No stranger to success, Rick's previous album "Get Loud Get Lit" launched the hit single Honky Tonk Road Trip which spawned a television reality series pilot of the same name. His 'Against the Grain' album featured the international hit single and video 'Midnight Rider'. After receiving rave reviews in print and numerous accolades on television shows such as EXTRA and ET, Rick's gritty Midnight Rider music video remains a huge fan favorite.
A true ambassador of the country music genre, Monroe was among the first country artists to perform in Russia and China. His extensive touring history includes performances throughout Russia, Bosnia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Hungary, Honduras, Ecuador, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Bahamas, Germany, England, Netherlands and Switzerland, sharing the stage with a who's who of musical greats. At the request of Pete Peterson, U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam, Rick performed at the week-long 4th of July celebrations in Hanoi and Ho Chi Mihn City. Monroe was honored to sing the U.S. National Anthem for the 5-year anniversary of the re-opening of diplomatic relations between the countries. This marking the first time the anthem had been sung at a public event in Vietnam in over 25 years.
He followed that up with a Command Performance for the former President of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, on the USS Sequoia Presidential Yacht, Washington, DC. This lead to a trip to Russia where Monroe performed at several orphanages and was a featured performer on REN TV's Bulat Okudzhava Festival in Moscow, Russia.
Rick Monroe takes life experiences that we all share, the events that touch our hearts and creates music that speaks directly to the soul in each of us. Whether in an intimate setting accompanied only by his acoustic guitar, a good old honky-tonk, or on stage playing with his band to thousands at an outdoor festival halfway around the world, Rick strives to connect to his audiences. He is always a huge crowd pleaser.
