An album cover has never represented the music it protects better than Jerrod Niemann's 'Free the Music' artwork. The 'Shinin' on Me' singer's sophomore project is a busy collection of instruments and themes that take some effort to sort through and enjoy.

Jerrod Niemann is releasing a sophomore album, the follow-up to his successful debut, 'Judge Jerrod and the Hung Jury.' The new collection of tunes, 'Free the Music,' shows his growth and maturity as a man, singer and songwriter, but still has a fair share of personality and fun mixed in.

Anything can -- and will, probably -- happen when Blake Shelton and some of his famous singing pals set sail on the high seas for the singer's cruise next month. Among the stars who have signed on for the seven-day sail are Jerrod Niemann, Randy Houser, Trace Adkins, Lee Brice, Easton Corbin and Neal McCoy.

Jerrod Niemann escaped a horrible accident late last night after a show in Chatanooga, Tenn. Lee Brice was there to save the day — and maybe the ‘Shinin’ on Me’ singer’s life. Scotty McCreery‘s news is slightly less dramatic. It involves him making a weekly appearance on ‘American Idol.’

It makes sense that Lee Brice would be the first one to recognize a burning bus. After all, he watched his own go up in flames last month. Last night, Jerrod Niemann‘s bus caught fire, and he says it was the ‘Woman Like You’ singer who got his attention and made sure everyone was off the bus before an explosion that would have ripped through the cabin.

The lead single from Jerrod Niemann‘s second studio album on Arista Nashville travels a road fans of ‘Judge Jerrod and the Hung Jury’ are familiar with. ‘Shinin’ on Me’ buries hurt with a few smiles and a positive attitude.

Jerrod Niemann is sporting some new ink on his left forearm these days in honor of his own musical hero. But it’s not the usual tributes to guys like Waylon Jennings or Merle Haggard that Niemann is giving a shout-out to — it’s honky-tonk legend Lefty Frizzell.

Jerrod Niemann fans get ready — you will soon be able to hear your first notes of the singer-songwriter’s next single, titled ‘Shinin’ On Me,’ when he hosts his second StageIt performance on Monday (Feb. 27).

As Jerrod Niemann gears up to spend the next several weeks on the road with Miranda Lambert and Chris Young on the On Fire Tour, the singer-songwriter has shared high hopes of doing some collaborations off the stage, as well as on, with his labelmates.

Jerrod Niemann is a star on the rise in the country music world. After writing hit records for other stars like Garth Brooks, Niemann has taken over singing his songs, produced a #1 hit (Lover, Lover), and shows no signs of letting up. Along with special guest William Clark Green, Jerrod Niemann is coming to Abilene to play at the Lucky Mule Saloon on Thursday night, January 17th.

This holiday season, Jerrod Niemann released a ‘Mistletoe Mix‘ of his current single, ‘One More Drinkin’ Song.’ The original version of the tune became an instant hit with Niemann’s fans, and the new Christmas-themed rendition has them wanting more holiday tuned from the singer.

Good news for fans of Jerrod Niemann: The singer-songwriter is putting the finishing touches on his next album, which is set to be released in 2012. “We’ve got every single song recorded … now we’re just working on getting them to sound professional,” Niemann tells Taste of Country.
