Chris Young I Didn't Come Here To Leave (CD)

(Black River) 14 tracks

“I Didn't Come Here to Leave” contains 14 new songs, nine of which were co-written, with new and long-time collaborators such as Jessie Jo Dillon, Trannie Anderson, and Chris DeStefano accompanying Young on his next project. The album refocuses on his timeless romanticism while capturing the energy of his legendary live shows (and bringing that deep, booming voice “back to my baritone roots”), representing perhaps the most complete cross-section of his creative vision and the highest level of craftsmanship in Young's remarkable career. Each song captures another essential element of country life, expressed with equal parts good energy and graceful determination.
