NASHVILLE, TN - Aug. 4, 2009 - Award-winning singer/songwriter Jack Ingram will appear in an upcoming episode of Lifetime's Army Wives, the network's highest-rated television series to date. Sixty second promos for the episode featuring Ingram and his current hit single "Barefoot and Crazy" are already running with the full episode set to air Sun., Aug. 16 at 10:00P ET/PT.
Filmed during CMA Music Festival in June, Ingram gave cast members Wendy Davis and Sally Pressman a VIP tour of Nashville that included boot shopping and beer drinking at Roberts Western World and a backstage pass to the country rocker's stadium performance at LP Field.
"I can't ever remember setting my DVR to catch a Lifetime Show before now...it's sort of a chick thing, you know," laughs Ingram. "But what I love about this series is that it really goes pretty deep into what military families go through as part of their sacrifice for the rest of us. I've been on a couple of USO tours and played bases all over the country, and I love being part of making them forget about all of that for a night."
Ingram's "Barefoot and Crazy" continues to set an impressive pace as the lead single off his upcoming release BIG DREAMS & HIGH HOPES, jumping two more spots to No. 11 this week. The eleven track studio album is out Aug. 25, the same day Ingram will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for "Most Consecutive Radio Interviews in a 24 Hour Period," a record currently held by Fall Out Boy.
Ingram continues to burn up the highways playing shows across the country and will join Toby Keith for a handful of dates later this month. For a full list of appearances and tour dates, visit www.jackingram.net.
