It was great to see a familiar face last night for one of our "Get To Know" shows. Normally it's a brand new artist looking to make a splash in the industry but last night it was an artist trying to make it back. Josh Gracin took to the patio last night at Ebenezer Ale House and delighted the crowd by playing a mix of his new music with a few of his older hits. Gracin had the crowd clapping and singing along to his hits and had their attention when sharing stories about each song and his life.

After the show he spent a few minutes with me talking about getting back on the road and trying to make it back on the radio and back on the charts. "It's harder this time," Gracin told me when I asked how it compared to the launch of his career after American Idol. But this time he has a calculate approach, he sat down and made a business plan, found investors and even started his own label. Will round two be as successful as his first go around? Only time will tell, but if the crowd reaction was an indicator I think he has a good road ahead of him.

Download his current EP, 'Nothin' Like Us' HERE and look for it to come out in CD soon as well as "Part 2"!
