Radney Foster announced yesterday (Thurs, July 20th) that he is releasing a CD/Book combo entitled 'For You To See The Stars'...

The collection of short stories will be Radney's first print publication and Foster's 11th studio album, featuring nine new songs and a special re-recording of 'Raining on Sunday'. The release date is set for September 15th.

Foster says..."For me, the goal of writing is always to touch that one person so much that they wonder how I got a peek into their living room - how I understood exactly what they felt. More than just rhyming or having a pretty melody, I try to express a part of the human condition that can make someone want to laugh, cry, make love or all of the above."

Foster has written eight number one national hit singles for various artist including his own "Nobody Wins," and "Crazy Over You" with duo Foster & Lloyd.
