NASHVILLE, June 4 (UPI) -- Popular entertainer Jimmy Buffett has teamed up with the likes of country singers Toby Keith, George Strait and Kenny Chesney for his new album.
Buffett's "License To Chill," is due to hit shelves July 13. The collection features a rendition of Hank Williams' classic "Hey Good Lookin'" with Clint Black, Chesney, Alan Jackson, Keith and Strait, as its debut single, which is at No. 19 on Billboard's hot country singles chart, a release from RCA Label Group said Friday.
Buffett's country collection follows the success of his duet with Jackson, "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere," which won awards from the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music.
Jackson rejoins Buffett on the new project on the duet "Boats to Build."
Buffett's foray into country music comes after a highly-successful career as a singer/songwriter of classics such as "Margaritaville," "Son of a Son of a Sailor" and "Cheeseburger In Paradise."
