In the land of the recording artist, a new album is always cause for an updated biography. Looking back to the biography for Gordie Sampson’s last album, 2004’s Sunburn, the stage was set for the Cape Breton darling to ascend to the heights of Grammy Award winner. Then a visitor in Nashville - the town Gordie now calls home for much of the year - he was pitching songs and looking for a lucky break. Two of the songs from Sunburn went on to appear on superstar albums, with Faith Hill’s cover of “Paris” and Keith Urban’s cover of “You (Or Somebody Like You),” but it was his role in writing Carrie Underwood’s #1 Billboard hit “Jesus Take The Wheel” that paved the path to the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Country Song and the 2007 Juno Award for Songwriter Of The Year. Other high profile songwriting followed with tracks for Bon Jovi, Martina McBride, and again, Carrie Underwood, but all the while Gordie was tucking away songs for his third solo album.Recorded in Cape Breton, Halifax and Nashville, For The Few
