Randy Travis to Debut His Latest Album Around the Bend on QVC(R)

Release Marks Travis' Return to Country Music After Nearly a Decade

WEST CHESTER, Pa., June 6 /PRNewswire/ -- From the top of the music charts to the silver screen, Randy Travis has been entertaining audiences with his brooding baritone and rugged swagger. Now, almost 25 years later, with nearly 30 top 10 song hits, 20 feature film roles and countless television appearances, Travis will, once again, be delighting fans when he makes his QVC debut to unveil his latest album Around the Bend.

Scheduled to appear on QVC Presents QSessions Live on Monday, June 9 at 11 PM (ET), Travis will give viewers a sneak-peek of his much-anticipated release with a special live performance featuring a selection of songs from the album. Fans will also get the chance to purchase Around the Bend, with a special five-track bonus disc featuring classic gospel and country favorites from Travis, created especially for QVC, more than a month before street date.

"It's a pleasure to have an icon like Randy Travis on our QVC Presents QSessions Live series," said Rich Yoegel, director of merchandising for QVC. "To offer our viewers this special live performance as well as the opportunity to purchase Around the Bend with the bonus disc a month before its release is exciting."

Around the Bend is Travis' triumphant return to country music after spending nearly a decade focused on his successful gospel and acting careers. Produced by the legendary Kyle Lehning (Reba McEntire, George Strait, Alan Jackson), the album is reminiscent of his early years when his ethereal voice and gritty guitar-playing made him an instant star in the country music world.

"My career has really come full circle with this release," said Travis. "To be able to go to back to my roots and record a tried-and-true country music album was amazing. Having the opportunity to share my music with QVC's millions of viewers makes the entire experience even better."

Around the Bend will be available on June 9 through QVC at 800.345.1515 or www.QVC.com while supplies last.
