NASHVILLE, TN – “Baby, I’m going crazy. I’m runnin’ red lights to get you,” growls Grammy®-nominated frontman Jaren Johnston with a sentiment he shares with musical cohorts Neil Mason (percussion) and Kelby Ray (lap steel) as they offer up their long-awaited album. THE CADILLAC THREE released BURY ME IN MY BOOTS on Big Machine Records on Friday (8/5) worldwide, offering up 14 highly-anticipated tracks that each member of the Music City-born-and-bred trio penned. Drawing on rootsy lyrics with storyline hooks and rock-fueled crunchy guitar riffs over bombastic drums, they offer up “one of the most highly anticipated country albums of 2016” (The Boston Globe). The album has already made a steady climb on the iTunes Top Albums Charts, currently perched at #2 Country and #5 All Genre in the US while coming in at #1 Country in Canada and the UK.

“We’ve been playing music together since we were kids causin’ trouble and chasin’ girls,” shares Jaren. “Now we get to perform at sold-out clubs in the UK and have Steven Tyler join us on stage in our hometown … For three long-hairs who sometimes still feel like we’re thirteen, that’s some pretty cool shit.”

Neil continues, “it’s been a long time coming but this album remains true to who we are and the memories we’ve made over the last couple of years. Our fans have kept the momentum going, and all of these songs have been road tested so we just hope people will turn it up and rock with us.”

Nashville Scene concurs, “Bury Me in My Boots takes that vision and pushes everything into the red with its Southern-fried boogie, sludgy grooves and beer-battered odes to the good life.” As audiences gravitate toward TC3’s raw and instinctive sound, more music critics are taking notice:

“They’ve defined their own lane – it’s edgy, sexy, and a little rough around the edges…”
All Access

“Nashville raised The Cadillac Three right.”
CMT.com

“Southern rock at its finest…”
Sounds Like Nashville

“…slick, radio-ready effort into party-starter territory.”
The Boston Globe

“Johnston’s bourbon-baked snarl and metallic riffs smash into Mason’s thunderous drums and Caldwell’s lap steel, which he channels through bass and guitar rigs.
Nashville Scene

“They are one of the most underrated musicians in the country and southern rock genres.”
Digital Journal

“A celebration of one’s roots, in this case those below the Mason-Dixon, the song [‘The South’] has become the trio’s signature, with singer Jaren Johnston leading crowds from the Deep South to the U.K. in its refrain…”
Rolling Stone Country

“It’s kind of surreal to think about all of the life we’ve lived together and how our music has reflected that through the years.” adds Kelby. “There isn’t much better than getting to explore the world with your two best friends and celebrate with fans every night on the road.”

The trio has kept a steady buzz, premiering exclusive live versions of songs filmed at the legendary Abbey Road studios in North London. Watch now. Nashville’s best-kept secret has been embraced across the globe with Rolling Stone having long expressed, “Like Kings of Leon before them, they’re poised for their first big break in the U.K. — where they’ve sold out every headlining show for nearly two years — before conquering their U.S. home turf.” TC3 will return to the UK for their Don’t Forget The Whiskey Tour in November. Tickets are available now through Live Nation.

Throughout October, TC3 will bring their unapologetic swagger across the US with Florida Georgia Line’s DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR.

Augmenting their status beyond the “small-town famous” reference in “Graffiti,” TC3 is “doing it our way, making our mark” and delivering a wealth of chart-topping Songs Jaren Wrote and producer credits for iconic Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler. Neil has contributed to recent Rascal Flatts and Miranda Lambert cuts in addition to collaborations with Jaren and Kelby for TC3’s catalogue.

But the seal of approval isn’t just from their Superstar pals or international fanbase because “…the majority of today’s so called country rockers are simply trying to emulate what The Cadillac Three has been from their very beginning” (Chicago Sun-Times).
