Behind a signature smile stands Neal McCoy, a Texas-born entertainer with a three-octave voice steeped in rich honky tonk heritage. On Sept. 24 he'll release PRIDE: A Tribute to Country Charley Pride in honor of the man who kick-started his music career. Garth Fundis produced the 11-track collection whose special guests include Darius Rucker, Raul Malo (The Mavericks) and Trace Adkins.
Pride, who turned 75 this year, has changed the musical and cultural landscape in a career that spans nearly 50 years. Though he has influenced many artists - including McCoy, who Pride has mentored since discovering him at a singing competition in Dallas, TX in 1981 - this is the first tribute album of its kind.
