#NewMusicAlert: Boo Ray – Tennessee Alabama Fireworks

By Kim Carney / February 17, 2019

Tennesse Alabama Fireworks, the new album by Nashville-based, Boo Ray, is OUT NOW. We’ve been diggin’ the first single release, “A Tune You Can Whistle”, released last fall and we’re loving the rest of the album even more.

Ray tells the story behind the title of the album, to Overdrive Magazine, “During the time that I wrote a good portion of the forthcoming record, including “A Tune You Can Whistle,” I was making trips down to Athens at a more-than-weekly frequency. I’d go down there for a night, haul back and go down there for another night, running myself ragged on I-24, passing the big Tennessee Alabama Fireworks sign near the state line as many as 80 times in a single year.” That record was “born on the road,” Ray says.
