Multi-Platinum recording artist Neal McCoy treated the audience to a trademark high-energy performance of music from his new album, "XII", last Saturday at the Colorado Pork and Hops Challenge in Grand Junction.

Country music fan and concert goer Dakota Rae McKinnon said, "He was awesome! I loved his show! I thought Neal McCoy's new material was fun, energetic, and even though he hasn't been big to the newer generation, he brilliantly knows how to grab their attention with his catchy tunes."

McCoy's, who already had 11 albums and over 25 charting singles to his credit, recently released his new album "XII",  his first with new label home, Blaster Records. The new album, his first in five years, was produced by McCoy's good friends and collaborators Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton.“Having Miranda and Blake involved in this project is ‘Huge’ for me. Not only do they have great vision, but they know when to have fun and when to get serious along with being Fantastic musicians,” says McCoy.

The first single from the album, "A-OK," has already been released to Country radio. Another track on the album, the amusing western swing ‘Mouth’, was written by Country music star and songwriter Jamey Johnson and co-writer Barry Tolliver.
