Platinum-selling recording artist Mitchell Tenpenny released a 20-track third studio album on Friday (Sept 20), The 3rd. He launched his album promo with an appearance on the Today Show last week performing the album’s first radio single ‘Not Today’.
The 3rd features collaborations with Underoath (‘Demon or Ghost‘) and Colbie Caillat (‘Guess We’ll Never Know‘).
Mitchell, a CMA Awards New Artist of the Year nominee, has seen his career explode in the past 12 months. His success as a touring artist has grown from recent guest slots on the road with Jason Aldean, Luke Combs and Jordan Davis to his own headline tours. From the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to the Today Show, he has performed his music to an ever-growing legion of fans, reached the top of the charts with two #1 singles in the last year and added to his gold and platinum selling status. Mitchell’s career and artistry is indeed in the rise.
Mitchell’s message to his fans, “I can’t even express how excited I am to finally have my new record “The 3rd” coming out. I put my heart and soul into these songs and can’t wait for y’all to hear these stories. I want to say thank you to my family for naming me James Mitchell Tenpenny the III and for all of you for allowing me to make three records!! What a life and journey I get to share with you through music. I hope y’all love it and find songs that connect with your journey. Let’s get it! It’s finally out!”
