Country music singer-songwriter Jordan Davis released his debut album Home State today (3/23). Where did the name for the album come from?
More times than not albums are titled after a song from the project. Why didn’t Jordan take that approach in naming his project?
“I didn’t want to just name it a song off the record ’cause I feel like it puts way too much emphasis just on that one song,” Jordan explains.
That of course brings the question where did “Home State” come from for the title of the album?
“The one common thread that was in this album was Louisiana,” he shares, “Whether it be pulling from experiences of me being in college at LSU or growing up in Shreveport.”
Really the name of the album doesn’t matter. What DOES matter is the music included on the album. Based on the debut single from Home State Jordan has done well with that part.
“Singles You Up” is the debut single from the Louisiana native. The song is currently at #5 of the Billboard Country Airplay and #6 on the Mediabase/Country Aircheck charts reflecting radio airplay nationwide. The song is still climbing on both charts.
Home State, the debut album from Jordan Davis is available digitally and in music stores everywhere now.
