It wasn't your ordinary Tuesday...It was Michael Ray Day!

What a way to come back to work, after a week long vacation! Yesterday, I had the privilege of hosting country star Michael Ray in studio, for an entire hour. Michael doesn't just sing hits, he was a huge hit with our entire staff. And, not just because...well...he is a beautiful man. He is funny, charming, sweet and just a likable, down-to-earth guy. He picked songs from his friends to play during the hour, ranging from "Dirt On My Boots" from Jon Pardi, to "Humble and Kind" by Tim McGraw and Brothers Osborne's "Stay A Little Longer." We debuted Michael's captivating, and personal, new single "Get To You," which you can check out here:

Michael talks about the connection he had to his first single.

He also talks about his upcoming album!

We all got to know a lot more about the man behind the music we played a little something I called, "What Do You Say, Michael Ray"- word association game.

Michael was gracious enough to pose for pictures with us:

We gave away tickets to see Michael, along with Frankie Ballard and many more, at the upcoming New England Country Music Festival in Portsmouth. To purchase your tickets click HERE!
