JON CHRISTOPHER DAVIS TOURS BEHIND
DEBUT ALBUM ON PALO DURO RECORDS

Austin, Texas -- Country-rocker Jon Christopher Davis, known across Texas for his song "Lone Star Attitude" and the spirit behind it, has begun a tour in support of the August 1 release on Palo Duro Records, JON CHRISTOPHER DAVIS.

The first single from the new CD, the upbeat "Love Had Something Else in Mind" (co-written with Stan Lynch, producer and writer with Don Henley), has already been released to Texas and Americana radio stations and is creating a healthy buzz.

"This grabbed ahold of me and wouldn't let go," says Robert K. Oermann of MusicRow. "This is as good as it gets, folks -- a charismatic vocalist, a killer production, a totally catchy song and tempo, tempo, tempo. Sign me up for the fan club."

Other Texas music makers agree: "If you crave a singer who can play, a player who can write and a writer who can sing, Jon Christopher Davis is your man," says fellow Texan Rodney Crowell, who is among many of the artist’s friends and collaborators in the recording industry.

On tour with Davis is Mark Metdker on lead guitar and pedal steel, Steve Metdker on lead guitar, Wiley Bolen on bass guitar, and Chad Gruver on drums.

On September 23, Davis stops in his hometown of Bonham to share the stage with Radney Foster, Texas-born musician, Davis fan and co-writer on the new CD of "You Gotta Love Someone" and "Two Story Town." Says Foster: "Jon Christopher Davis is a triple threat. He plays guitar great, sings like a bird and writes from the heart."

Songs penned by Davis have been recorded/released by Dolly Parton, Hal Ketchum, Tammy Cochran and Billy Ray Cyrus including "The Lucky Ones," "Little Bird" and "I Still Believe."
