BUCKY COVINGTON TO RELEASE "I WANT MY LIFE BACK"
First single from new album delivers to country radio on March 30, 2009
Nashville, TN- After delivering three consecutive Top 10 hits at country radio and selling more than 400,000 units of his self-titled CD to become the best-selling country debut release of the 2007 class, Bucky Covington is preparing to deliver his first new music since last year's poignant Top 10 hit, "I'll Walk." The new single, "I Want My Life Back," is written by tunesmiths Frank Myers and Anthony Smith and serves as the lead single from Bucky's upcoming sophomore CD.
"This song struck me the first time I heard it," declares Bucky. "It's such an emotional and powerful song that really hits home with today's times and I'm proud to be able to share the positive message."
Following his stateside return from his first overseas USO Tour, Covington is currently in the studio with producers Mark A. Miller and Dale Oliver recording new music for his sophomore CD. Fans can also catch Covington make his big screen debut in on April 10 in Hannah Montana The Movie.
Bucky Covington's self-titled debut CD opened at #1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart in April 2007 with the biggest first week sales for any debut country artist that year. He's the best selling debut artist of the 2007 class and is one of only three male country artists since 2005 to have three consecutive top 10 singles from his debut album. In addition to competing on the fifth season of "American Idol," Bucky's national television appearances have included Live with Regis and Kelly, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Good Morning America and Fox & Friends.

Interesting info on wikipedia because as I searched for Anthony Smith (hope thi is the correct one, such a common name) he was born in Indiana and will release a CD of his own in 2009. To read more on the Anthony Smith

He wrote two of my favorite songs, "I'm Already There" and "My Front Porch Looking In" an dso many other great songs. That's a good sign
