In a nutshell: Fulfilling a promise made to his parents to one-day record an inspirational record, Country staple Tracy Lawrence releases The Rock, his second independent CD on his own homegrown label. With heavy-hitting faith-based songwriters like Craig Morgan weighing in, the entire record is full of explicit Christian hope. Sweeping pedal steel, fiddle chops and Lawrence's familiar twang all add to a full-fledge Gospel recording that is sure to continue the former superstar's comeback climb.
