Greg Shirley's "Hard Road" Hits BBC/Japan/Euro Heavy

MUSCLE SHOALS, Ala. - Sept. 23, 2015 - PRLog -- After just a week of radio promotion, Greg Shirley's "Hard Road" is playing heavily on a list of international radio stations, including BBC1 Norfolk and a series of European Indie stations. "Hard Road" follows Greg's massive hit "The Good Drugs" and "Hillbilly Girl", the first release off his new album "Raised On The Run".

"Hey, I apologize to constantly degrading the
state of today’s country music as pure crap. You
and I both know it is but I don’t have to keep
ramming that point home in every comment about
some cool Americana album I like. For the record,
there is, indeed, some damn fine country music
being made out there. Raised On The Run (Garage
Door), by Greg Shirley, fits the bill. With an inviting
voice, intelligent lyrics, a predisposition to rock every great once in awhile, and a production that
accentuates the right moments, these 12 tracks
constitute everything good about this particular
genre (a genre that, like hip-hop, still has a whole
boatload of garbage to wade through in order find
its gems). And he thanks Jesus first in his liner
note credits.
Shirley’s a Texan who settled in Alabama with
his dad upon the death of his mom. Moving to
Nashville, he married, had children, worked as a
brick mason and fiddled around with music at
night. When his dad fell ill, he moved his family
back to Alabama where he now owns a commercial
masonry company while raising five kids with his
wife of 20 years. Those nights with his guitar paid off finally."
