Michael Ray is gearing up for the Aug. 7 release of his self-titled debut CD by offering up a pre-order option to fans beginning July 17 at MichaelRayMusic.com. The project will of course include Ray’s Top 10-and-climbing hit “Kiss You In The Morning.”
The Atlantic Records/Warner Music Nashville album was produced by hitmaker Scott Hendricks.
A video for the single features the Florida native in his element among his hometown family and friends racing cars, driving airboats and generally loving life. Ray developed much of his profound love for country’s old school sounds thanks to his grandfather, who passed away earlier this year. He dedicated his first performance on the Grand Ole Opry to him, playing one of his guitars on stage, and performed on the hallowed stage earlier this week in celebration of the release of his new CD.
“2015 has been one of the best years professionally of my life,” said Ray. “Coming from the kid that grew up in Eustis, FL in a double wide trailer on ten acres of land to releasing my debut album worldwide is such a surreal and ‘I can’t believe it’s happening’ feeling. Many people have put a lot of hard work into making this a reality and I hope everyone enjoys the record.”
