Sara Evans is back and I dare say…. Stronger… than ever!

Country Music News Blog is proud to announce a special giveaway from Sara Evans, celebrating the release and instant success of her new album “Stronger“. We’re giving away an autographed copy of the album to one lucky winner, and an autographed album AND her new book to another!

To enter, text COUNTRY to 22828! It’s that simple!

The title track from Sara’s new album is already dominating both radio airplay and video rotations on all the major networks, and for good reason. The song is raw, emotional, and touches a deep place that at least every woman I know can connect with. We all know what it’s like to slowly, day by day, move past the hurt and heartache until one day you realize that it’s not holding you back any longer, and Sara does SUCH a good job of putting that experience into a song. The rest of the album keeps that pace and offers listeners what feels like an inside peek at her very heart-wrenching turn from heartbreak into a surprising new love. Take a listen to the album by clicking the banner to the right, and tell us what you think!

To enter the giveaway, text COUNTRY to 22828!
