Josh Turner Debuts At McCallum Theatre

Heralded by critics as one of the brightest young stars in country music today, Josh Turner makes his McCallum Theatre debut on Monday, February 2, 2009, at 8:00pm.

Nashville's introduction to Josh Turner came with his debut at the Grand Ole Opry in December 2001. Josh wowed the crowd with his self-penned "Long Black Train," the song that would eventually become his first hit. Josh Turner's star began shining that night and hasn't dimmed.

Since his debut, Josh has quietly ascended the path to country music superstardom. Two of his singles, "Your Man" and "Would You Go With Me," have become multi-week #1 hits. He is an in-demand touring act and a first-time nominee in the Country Music Association Awards' prestigious Male Vocalist category. Josh can also celebrate the success of first-class album sales. His debut album, Long Black Train, sold more than one million copies, and his sophomore album, Your Man, was one of only four country albums to reach double-platinum status in 2006. This status was marked by his induction, as one of the youngest members, into the famed Grand Ole Opry in 2007.

Josh's latest CD, Everything is Fine is grounded in the traditional music from his grandparents' record collection he heard growing up, with the addition of fresh sounds that speak to today's music fans. Everything is Fine captures his personal music style more than ever. Josh's success since his debut finds its way through the lyrics of his latest disc and leaves the listener feeling uplifted and inspired. Once again, it's everyday life to which Turner's music returns; an everyday life of heartaches, happiness, fishing holes, and everything in between, and, in Josh Turner's case, a career that's hotter than a firecracker.

Sponsored by Big 106, Crystal Chrysler, and Red Earth Casino, Josh Turner will perform at McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert, California, Monday, February 2, at 8:00pm. Tickets are priced at $75, $55, $45 and $35. -- www.mccallumtheatre.com
