Darius Rucker to Release New Album

Newly inducted Grand Ole Opry member Darius Rucker will release his third country album, True Believers, on January 22, 2013. Rucker served as co-writer on 10 of the album’s 12 tracks, including the title track and first single, and Frank Rogers returned as the project’s producer. Full track listing is included below.

“For this album, we really paid attention to what our friends and fans were telling us on the road,” shares Rucker. “The result is an album that I’m so proud of because my fans really have been the true believers since I released my first single to country radio. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it on January 22.”

Rucker played the album in its entirety at a special event yesterday (10/30) at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s Ford Theater. The stripped-down, intimate showcase (and one of the first official combined UMG-Capitol events) featured Rucker performing each of the album’s songs with his numerous co-writers. Highlights included the soulful, homesick plea “Take Me Home” (co-written with Frank Rogers and Monty Criswell), the heartbroken “Love Without You” (by Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally), and “Miss You” (co-written with Rogers).
