03 AUGUST 2017 (Toronto, ON) – Three-time Grammy award winning country artist, Darius Rucker, has announced his long-awaited fifth studio album When Was The Last Time set to be released October 20 via Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company.
Last week, Rucker spoke with Billboard about teaming up with esteemed Nashville producer Ross Copperman (Dierks Bentley, Keith Urban) to bring his vision for the album to life. “On top of being a genius with the equipment, Ross is so high-energy and funny; that kid is never not laughing.” Rucker exclaimed. “Every time we were in the studio we had a great band who had great ideas of their own, so it was the farthest thing from tedious, but just, let’s get in and do it. I think for the whole record we spent just three days tracking music.”
On July 24 the Platinum-selling star released the album’s second single, a song he wrote with Derek George and Travis Hill, “For The First Time”, a the follow-up to his first single off the album “If I Told You”. This fall’s release will be yet another signature moment in the multiplatinum career of one of music’s most beloved figures. Rucker has never been busier while working on his new album with a slate of television appearances this spring and summer including a CMT Crossroads episode with John Mellencamp, an appearance in Adam Sandler’s Netflix original, Sandy Wexler, and his own episode of Celebrity Undercover Boss on CBS.
