TRAILER CHOIR Is "Off The Hillbilly Hook" on CMT
Video Jumps To Heavy Rotation After Strong Fan Response
(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Show Dog Nashville's Trailer Choir built a following by making fans the old fashioned way -- first at clubs and parties and more recently on tour with Toby Keith. But since the release of their first single "Off The Hillbilly Hook," they've made waves at radio and are currently powering up to heavy rotation on CMT with the song's video.
"Off The Hillbilly Hook" received strong fan response in only its first week of inclusion in the viewer-voted CMT Power Picks feature, and the network has responded by bumping the clip into heavy.
"The response to the video for 'Off The Hillbilly Hook' was immediate!" noted Jay Frank, SVP music strategy at CMT. "Within one week, the audience was searching and streaming the video on CMT as fast as the biggest new artists this year. Our audience always leads the pack and they are quickly pegging Trailer Choir as a bona-fide hit!"
The Tucson Daily Star also recently hailed the group as "not to be missed" performers. And while radio, video and media outlets continue to warm to the trio's good-time sizzle, fans can catch them out on the road across the US. Trailer Choir will spend the rest of the summer winning over converts on Toby Keith's Biggest & Baddest Tour as well as have the opportunity to draw in masses of fans later this month when they perform at the gargantuan Country Thunder festival in Twin Lakes, WI on July 16 & 17.
Additionally, "Off The Hillbilly Hook" is featured prominently in the upcoming major motion picture release Beer For My Horses, along with being the first single launched from the new soundtrack album in stores and online August 12th. Trailer Choir are Butter -- the fast-talking frontman and master of ceremonies, Big Vinny -- the buck dancing 380-pound-plus singer/songwriter, and Crystal -- the soulful Louisiana beauty.
