John Berry New EP Thomas Road

Grammy Winning Artist, John Berry, Releases New EP, “Thomas Road”

22nd Annual Christmas Tour Kicks Off With 21 Dates

Nashville, Tennessee (November 30, 2018) – Grammy winning singer/songwriter, John Berry, has released his latest project with an exclusive announcement in Billboard Magazine. The EP, Thomas Road, is named after the street he grew up on in Decatur, GA and where his passion and love for music took a hold of his desire to become a recording artist. The music is available on digital formats for streaming and download here and can be ordered from his website.

“Everyone has heard the old adage “You Can’t Go Home Again“, writes Billboard Magazine Journalist, Deborah Evans Price. “Thankfully, John Berry didn’t listen”.

“As exciting as it was to go into the studio to record new music, to be able to it with my friend Chuck Howard, after so many years, was just amazing. Chuck hears me like no one else and knows how to take me musically where I’ve never thought possible and then, add in the incredible talent of Barry Weeks who co-produced my new project,’ shares Berry. “I am so excited to share this new music with you and I hope these songs will take you to new places that feel familiar.”

Song List:
“Thomas Road” – John Berry / Barry Weeks
“Richest Man” John Berry / Liz Hengber / Will Robinson
“Heavin’ Comin’ Down” – John Wiggins / Bob Moffatt / Clint Moffatt
“Why Didn’t I” – Michael Boggs / Barry Weeks
“Beautifully Broken” – Tiffany Arbuckle Lee / Jenny Slate Lee
“Don’t Think I Ain’t Country” –  Bill Anderson / John Berry

“I was fortunate to grow up in a home where music was always celebrated. The sounds of gospel, classical, country or pop were always present, but it was the latter years of elementary school into high school that were a significant time for me. Carole King wove “Tapestry,” John Denver came down a “Country Road“, Cat Stevens rode in on a “Peace Train” and I began playing the guitar,” stated John Berry in the liner notes. “Listening to a white AM radio on the shop table in my dad’s garage helped me to dream bigger than who I was. The music drew me in and I had to be a part of it… it was a part of me. With my dad’s encouragement and help, we built a little studio in the basement of our house and I recorded my first four albums there. The fire inside me grew. I am beyond grateful for the inspiration I found in family, friends and music on Thomas Road. All those memories keep calling me back home to Thomas Road.”

John is on the road and touching hearts with his 22nd annual “Christmas Songs & Stories with John Berry Tour”. The seasonal fan favorite performances are filled with traditional Christmas songs, including his incredible a cappella version of “O Holy Night”, many of his most requested hit songs, and a few of his childhood stories sprinkled in.

It is no surprise that John Berry quickly sells out venues all over the country. The Entertainment Nexus once described the award-winning entertainer as “one of the most remarkable voices in music.”

Grammy Award-winning country star John Berry continues to celebrate the 25th anniversary since signing his first record deal and has recently charted at #30 on the Music Row Breakout Charts with the single, “Beautifully Broken,” which is featured in the soundtrack for the upcoming movie of the same name. Berry has placed 20 singles on the country hit parade charts, six of which went Top 5 as well as a No. 1 on the Billboard and Radio & Records country charts. He has earned numerous Gold and Platinum records. Berry’s co-written “A Mind Of Her Own” and “Kiss Me In The Car” introduced him to radio audiences in 1993. Then, “Your Love Amazes Me“, “What’s In It For Me“, and “You And Only You“, thrust him to stardom in 1994. “Standing On The Edge Of Goodbye“, “I Think About It All the Time“, and “If I Had Any Pride Left At All“, were all major hits the following year. “Your Love Amazes Me” earned Berry a 1995 Grammy nomination. In 1996, he scored a Grammy win for his participation in Amazing Grace: A Country Salute to Gospel Vol. 1. Berry took “Change My Mind” into the country music Top 5 in that same year. “She’s Taken a Shine” became an even bigger hit in 1997. The same year, he was nominated for CMA Vocal Event of the Year for “Long Haired Country Boy” with Charlie Daniels and Hal Ketchum. Both fans and the media took note when “There He Goes” was released as a 1999 duet with Patsy Cline. Berry’s two most recent albums, What I Love The Most and his holiday album, Christmas, are both available now on his website as well as iTunes and other digital retailers.  Berry’s TV show, Songs & Stories with John Berry, airs weekly on Heartland Television, The Family Channel, The Country Network, Roku (via Heartland), AMG TV, Country TV (New Zealand), and Keep It Country TV (UK).
