Info for El Rio
'El Rio' is Frankie Ballard's third studio album release. On the heels of his breakthrough sophomore album 'Sunshine & Whiskey', which featured 3 #1 singles and 2 gold certified tracks, Frankie returns with this amazing collection of songs, mostly recorded at a remote Texas studio on the Mexican border.
El Rio is as close to 'live in the studio' as an album can be, and the idea of a band all creating it together is the central theme of the project. The first single 'It All Started With A Beer' is already Top 20 at country radio, and looks to be Frankie's next #1.
“I’m very proud of the work Marshall and I did on El Rio,” says Ballard in a prepared statement. “We busted our ass to be better. It’s been a spiritual journey. This album has already changed my life, and nobody’s heard it yet.” (Frankie Ballard)
The album’s first single, “It All Started With A Beer,” tells the story of a relationship that’s grown over time despite the bumps life offers along the way. “On the surface, it’s a love story about two folks meeting in a bar and having a beer,” said Ballard. “From there, the relationship blossomed into something long lasting and now they’re looking back, going, ‘Man, look at this great relationship we got, and it started so simply, with just a beer.’ So many people can relate to the idea.” (Frankie Ballard)
