Swindell gets "Down Home"

Friday, October 31, 2014 – , Cole Swindell, gearing up to launch his "Down Home Tour" next month, will put out a five-song EP, "Down Home Sessions" on Nov. 17.

“I'm always writing and I have lots of songs that I want my fans to hear. As a songwriter, that's what you want, but everything can't always make it onto your album so I decided the best way to release this music was to put together the "Down Home Session EP,'" he said. "The start of my ‘Down Home Tour’ seemed like the perfect time to put this collection together for the fans, not that I need an excuse to thank them for all the support they have given me over the past year.”

Releasing his self-titled debut album earlier this year on Warner, Swindell has sold 260,000 copies since February, while claiming the title of highest selling country debut since 2011 upon release. The album features Swindell's latest single, "Ain't Worth The Whiskey" plus his first two hits as a solo artist and back-to-back number one single: the gold certified "Hope You Get Lonely Tonight" and the Platinum certified "Chillin' It."

CD reviews for Cole Swindell

CD review - Stereotype Already successful as both a songwriter and a headlining performer, Cole Swindell's showcases both sides of that equation. The album includes seven co-writes of his own among the 13 tracks and some solid vocal turns on the hits that continue to prove that he is more than just a hit songwriter. "Never Say Never, a duet with Lainey Wilson, is the powerful centerpiece. The song is arranged so the two singers' lines snake around each other as a bona fide 80's power ballad unfurls ...
CD review - All of It Cole Swindell's" All Of It" is a little different from many of contemporary artists' current releases in that there is a whole lot of country - thematically anyway - in it. The 40-plus minutes are all about drinking, regret, appreciation of people who matter and breakups. It starts off with a bang with the up-tempo rocker "Love You Too Late." The best track is its most poignant song penned by Jessi Alexander and Chase McGill, "Dad's Old Number," ...
CD review - Down Home Sessions EP Upon first glance at the track list of Cole Swindell's fourth installment of the "Down Home Sessions" series, one may get the impression that it is a covers EP.

Swindell has 10 number 1 singles as a songwriter to his name had a hand in penning both all five songs, so technically, it's original material. ...
