American Idol alum Bo Bice will release his third album, aptly titled 3, on May 18.

The new album combines southern blues and rock, gospel-like choruses, Americana and a touch of Country.

“I feel the new CD, 3, is my strongest to date,” said Bice, “filled with a plethora of sounds that show people who the real Bo Bice is. There's something for everyone; country, soul, rock & roll...it's like your favorite pair of jeans; it just feels right.”

“Bo Bice is an enormously talented singer, songwriter and musician that has forged incredible relationships with the fans,” adds Mike Jason, Senior VP of Audio and Video Retail at Saguaro Road Records. “We are absolutely thrilled to be partnering with him for the release of 3."
 
On 3, Bo wrote half of the songs himself and collaborated with other writers on the remainder, playing both acoustic and electric guitar during the recording sessions in his adopted hometown of Nashville. He was joined by Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman and keyboardist AJ Croce, whose father, Jim, has long been one of Bice’s greatest songwriting influences. Bice also produced five of the album’s songs, with an additional six co-produced with D. Scott Miller.
 
3 is Bice’s third album and first for Saguaro Road Records.
