Gulf Coast Records announces the signing of Nashville-based blues/rock singer Chris BadNews Barnes and the April 26th release date for his label debut album, BadNews Travels Fast. BadNews Travels Fast was produced by multi-Grammy winner Tom Hambridge, who also played drums on the sessions and co-wrote all of the songs on the new disc with Barnes. Joining in the recording fun was an A-List of Nashville musicians, along with such special guests as singers Jimmy Hall and Sugaray Rayford and guitarist Walter Trout. I have been a fan of Chris Barnes for years, said Gulf Coast label head Mike Zito in announcing the signing. He is obviously very well known for his comedic acting and writing from SNL to Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm appearances. I took real notice of Chris a few years back when we played together at The Big Blues Bender. Chris is a sincere singer/songwriter with a style all his own. His stage presence is nothing short of exuberant. Gulf Coast Records is proud to have Chris Barnes join our family in 2024! Im honored to have found a home for my original songs with fellow artists who are also true friends, stated Chris BadNews Barnes. Gulf Coast has built a Castle for todays cutting-edge Blues Artist and Im grateful to be inside The Gates. Mike and Gulf Coast...I Offer You My Sword, Now lets Go Slay Some Dragons! This is my fifth album and the second produced by Grammy Award-Winning Tom Hambridge, added Barnes. Walter Trout, Jimmy Hall, and Sugaray Rayford have all lent their talents for this impassioned and personal Contemporary Blues Album.
