Colt Ford is "Back"
Friday, June 22, 2012 – The release date for Colt Ford's new single, Back, with Jake Owen, was moved up and is now available on iTunes now! The song is the first single off Ford's new album, "Declaration of Independence," due Aug. 7.
Shannon Houchins, Noah Gordon and Mike Hartnett wrote the song with Ford with the singer reminiscing about childhood memories.
"This is such a personal song for me. It's my life. It's about my past and my future. I talk about friends that are no longer here, and I talk about the way I grew up," said Ford. "To have one of my best friends in the music business, Jake Owen, be a part of this song with me is a big deal. It's a song that I wanted a friend of mine to be a part of, and Jake is just on fire and one of my favorite singers. He captured the emotion that I had in this song. I think everyone, when they hear this song, will want to call home."

Although he had previously released an album, an EP and a live collection, "Chicken & Biscuits" was the vehicle ...
Before Colt Ford hit pay dirt with "Dirt Road Anthem" he was considered a country music outlier with his rap/rock style and collaborations. He makes no apologies for it as he proclaims on the guns blazing opener, "I'm Still Me." "I'm still a whole lot more Georgia than I'll ever be Tennessee."
Ford is known for his collaborations, and this album is chock full of them. Mitchell Tenpenny, Jimmie Allen and Eddie Montgomery populate his seventh studio album. ...
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups notwithstanding, two great tastes don't always taste great together. Take, for instance, country music and rap. Hick hop, if you will. Even the name sounds like an affliction of the diaphragm.
