Texas Country group Josh Abbott Band hit No. 1 for the first time as “She’s Like Texas” climbed the charts on the Texas Regional Radio Report. Josh Abbott was also featured next to fellow Texan artists Rich O’Toole and Bart Crow on the cover of the march issue Best In Texas.
 
“Wow. I’m thrilled with the overwhelmingly positive response to the song,” said Abbott. “I can’t thank Texas radio and my fans enough for all of the support over the years. I’m excited to be able to share this moment with them!”
 
“She’s Like Texas” is the title track from the band's new album and was written by Abbott himself. The album has secured the No. 28 spot on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and also took the No. 3 spot on the iTunes Country Music Albums chart on it’s release day Feb. 16.
 

The Josh Abbott Band has played more than 250 shows this past year and currently is playing dates all over Texas and outside the Lone Star State in support of their new album. Upcoming shows in Texas include: El Paso (4/7); Albuquerque (4/8); Amarillo (4/9) and Denton (4/15).
