Corbin scores first number one
Monday, March 22, 2010 – Easton Corbin scored the first number one of his career with A Little More Country Than That, making Easton the first country male solo artist to achieve that with a debut single since 2003.
Marking his national television debut, Easton will perform the single April 1 on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
"A big thank you to country radio for believing in Easton and this song from the very beginning," said Royce Risser, Senior Vice President of National Promotion.
"A number one for a new artist is uncommon, and for it to happen with a new artist's first single is even more rare. Easton has given us a killer album and we can't wait to release his next hit.
The song was written by Rory Feek, Don Poythress and Wynn Varble and produced by Carson Chamberlain.
Corbin will be on Brad Paisley's H20 World Tour this year, which kicks off May 21 in Virginia Beach, Va. and continues thru the end of September.

"Clockwork" relates how lovers risk reaping the same rewards or punishment over and over. ...
Easton Corbin jumped on to the country music scene two years ago with a self-titled album and a fun, easy-going single, titled I'm A Little More Country Than That. The Florida native's staying power or lack there of will be determined by his 11-song sophomore album, "All Over The Road."
Corbin makes a strong case with this album that combines strong ballads and impressive mid-tempo songs. The songs are well-written as Corbin enlisted the services of accomplished songwriters ...
You may not always be able to judge a book by its cover. But the image of a north Florida country boy playing a guitar and sitting next to a dog on a front porch perfectly describes what the mood of the 11 songs will be. Corbin recalls George Strait on several songs, but none more than the hit A Little More Country Than That.
