Kellie Pickler will release her third album, 100 Proof, on January 24, 2012. “I'm just happy to be making country music,” said Kellie. “I hope everyone enjoys the new music as much as I've enjoyed making it!”
The Season 5 finalist set out to get back to her southern roots on 100 Proof and make a traditional and fresh sounding country album. To help her achieve her goals she enlisted producers Frank Liddell and Luke Wooten.The album-opener “Where’s Tammy Wynette” sets the tone of 100 Proof with its raw and unconventional sound. Kellie co-wrote 6 of the 11 songs on 100 Proof including “Long As I Never See You Again,” which she wrote with famed songwriters Dean Dillon and Dale Dodson.
