In 2007, Steve Forde teamed up with leading US producer Richard Landis and recorded his self-titled album – his first with ABC Music.

The success of the album, which was one of the highest selling Australian country albums in 2007, firmly established Forde as one of Australia’s premier country music artists.

He went on to win three Golden Guitars in January 2008 for his part in the ‘Spirit Of The Bush’ collaboration with Lee Kernaghan and Adam Brand.

Forde re-teamed with Landis in Nashville over the most recent US summer to record his next project – his new album, Guns & Guitars.

The first single, ‘Life’s Got Something Good For Me’ is a great example of what to expect on the new album, which is rawer and lyrically deeper at times than anything Forde has released before.
The track was written by hit maker Rivers Rutherford and George Teren and was serviced to country radio this week.

The track’s new video will premier on CMC in mid September. Guns & Guitars is released on October 4, 2008.
