Sweet Grass County and Kimmi Pickler Sign on to Open for Kymbyrly Creek's Tour[/size]
Ozark Sunset Records artists Sweet Grass County and Kimmi Pickler have been confirmed as the opening acts for labelmate Kymbyrly Creek's upcoming Cross My Heartland Tour, which will commence on September 6, 2012 and run through early 2013, with the final leg of the tour taking place in Europe.

In being chosen as opening acts, the artists had this to say:
Sweet Grass County: "We are beyond psyched to have been chosen by Kymbyrly Creek to open this tour. Its going to be an amazing experience, and we couldn't be more grateful for it. Kymbyrly Creek is a great friend of ours, and we can't wait to get out on the road with her!"
Kimmi Pickler: "I'm so thrilled to have this opportunity. Its been a whirlwind year for me coming off The X-Factor and then it certainly hasn't slowed down a bit since then! I can't wait to showcase my music to so many new fans."

"Baton Rouge Blues" will be the third single from the album. It will be released to country radio on March 19.

"Too Young for This," the fourth single from the album, will be released to country radio on August 13.

It is a ballad that tackles delicate topics like unintentional teenage pregnancy in the first verse and breast cancer in the second. In each case, the character's reaction to the situation is distraught over being 'too young' to deal with the burdens placed on them. "I wrote this song because things like these are very real. Challenges are thrown our way on a daily basis, and some of them are bigger than others, and I just thought, y'know, you always think 'I'm too young for this.' No one can ever really be prepared for everything." -- Kimmi Pickler

Pickler previously performed the song on the 3rd Annual Sing for a Cure on March 7, 2013.

Kimmi Pickler is featured on Wade Jefferson's new single, "Bounty." The track comes from his sophomore effort, Blood Moon Sky, and hits country radio in January 2014.

Of the collaboration, Pickler had this to say: "This was such a fun song and I'm glad I got the chance to be apart of it! Wade Jefferson is quite the guy and super talented. I enjoyed working with him."
