It's a bittersweet release for fans of Jessica Harp because of the circumstances around the release (she's retiring from performing) but rather than not get the release at all, it was released digitally.  How does the album stack-up?

In a blog post on myspace and website last night, Jessica Harp has announced that she's leaving behind her recording career to focus on being a songwriter.  Harp first came to prominence as 1/2 of The Wreckers and had a Top 40 hit last summer with "Boy Like Me."

Jessica Harp stormed on the country scene a few years back as 1/2 of the Wreckers with Michelle Branch.  While her debut single "Boy Like Me" managed a Top 40 birth, the single failed to ignite at Radio or CMT.  Will this title track to her upcoming album, do any better?

Watch the second music video from Jessica Harp. It's for the title track to her upcoming debut album.

Just like she did as 1/2 of the Wreckers, Jessica Harp has come out with a song that will get her noticed at radio.  It has an infectious melody and lyrics that haven't been beaten to death. That being said can the song rise above the prejudice at radio against female artists?

In an exclusive interview, Jessica Harp discusses the reasoning behind moving outside of her successful duo the Wreckers.  She also touches on what made her upcoming album an amazing experience and how she loves to interact with her fans via the inernet.
