DATE: MARCH 22, 2010
FROM: MITCH SCHNEIDER/TODD BRODGINSKI/ANGELA VILLANUEVA
MULTI-PLATINUM AND GRAMMY-NOMINATED COUNTRY SINGER
TO RELEASE ‘UNMISTAKABLE’ TRILOGY OF EPs THIS YEAR:
FIRST VOLUME ‘LOVE’ SET FOR RELEASE APRIL 27
TO BE FOLLOWED BY ‘DRIVE’ AND ‘INSPIRATION’

“I think this is a great way to let the fans hear all the recordings made in the last six years,” says Jo Dee. “They not only get to experience the finished product, but the complete collection of songs recorded along the way.”
On the live front, Jo Dee plans to be on the road throughout 2010, with dates scheduled through October. Of her opening night performance Tuesday (3/16) at Feinstein’s on Park Avenue, Jon Caramanica of the New York Times praised the “…breezy, affable and sometimes sharp show, a scaled-down version of her Music Room Series tour: part concept, part request line, part talk show,” citing such highlights as “…an airy ‘Heads Carolina, Tails California,’ a counterintuitive ‘Because You Love Me’ and the excellent room-hushing ballad ‘Bring On The Rain’ (3/18/10).”
The track listing for “Love” is below:
“Hard Life”
“Always Have, Always Will”
“Unmistakable”
“Welcome To The Rest Of My Life”
“Treat Me Like A Woman Today”
“Think About Us”
“I’m Home”
Bonus tracks:
“Because You Love Me” (live acoustic)
“Stand Beside Me” (live acoustic)
About Jo Dee:
Multi-platinum and award-winning country singer/songwriter JO DEE MESSINA will release a trilogy of EPs in 2010 on Curb Records. Since her last release, JO DEE has married and had her first child, a 10-month-old son named Noah. Beginning with “UNMISTAKABLE: LOVE,” the releases show that JO DEE has fully come into her own as a songwriter and producer–she co-produced the music–and isn’t afraid to show her true colors. Since breaking onto the music scene in 1996, JO DEE has scored nine #1 country singles, sold over five million records, received two Grammy nominations and received various CMA and ACM awards. Her many hits include “Heads Carolina, Tails California,” “Bye Bye,” “I’m Alright,” “Stand Beside Me,” “That’s The Way” and “Bring On The Rain” (a duet with Tim McGraw).
Her self-titled 1996 debut album was certified Gold by the RIAA and featured the single "Heads Carolina, Tails California." With four huge radio hits, her second album I’m Alright was certified double platinum and she won the CMA's Horizon Award in 1999. She was the first female country artist to score three multiple-week #1 songs from the same album. The follow-up album, Burn, was certified platinum. She also scored an adult contemporary hit with "Bring on the Rain," with McGraw on harmonies. In addition to headlining concerts, she also toured with Vince Gill, George Strait and the Judds on their reunion tour. Her fame also led to television roles on “Touched by an Angel” and “Nash Bridges.”
