 McAlister Kemp - Country Proud by ABC Music

Today ABC Music recording artists McAlister Kemp announce that the follow up to their award winning debut album All Kinds Of Tough, will be released on March 16, 2012 through ABC Music/Universal Music Australia.

The new album will be titled Country Proud and McAlister Kemp will launch it on the main stage at the 2012 CMC Rocks The Hunter festival.

The album’s title track and opening single ‘Country Proud’ is released to radio stations this week.

‘Country Proud’ is set to be the new country anthem of the summer with it’s powerful core message, gospel backing singers and even a hint of reverse banjo!

The track was written by Drew McAlister, Troy Kemp and Steven Lee Olsen.

McAlister Kemp write, record and perform music that touches on core values, real people, great fun and great music! Their debut album produced three #1 singles ('All Kinds Of Tough', 'Hell Yeah', 'Hard Work') and the duo were this year rewarded with a ‘Best New Talent’ Golden Guitar at the Country Music Awards of Australia and a CMC Music Award for 'Best New Oz Artist'.

McAlister Kemp also had the opportunity to open for US country superstar Alan Jackson and perform at the CMA Music Festival Global Artist Party in Nashville last June.

Country Proud will continue to touch on the themes typified in All Kinds Of Tough, but this time with bigger, fresher, bolder and more ambitious sound quality and production. It also includes a track with Canadian country superstars Doc Walker.

The new album was recorded primarily in Australia and is produced by 2011 Country Music Awards of Australia Album of the Year winning producer Matt Fell.
