JOE NICHOLS NEEDS A NEW LABEL

Joe told us via Twitter that he is no longer a member of the Showdog-Universal label.  He tweeted, "I'd like to thank ShowDog universal for doing the right thing IM FREE!!!!!"  He did say he is "very thankful for Show-Dog, and what they have done for [him.]"  Joe said their "relationship has just reached its limits."

Hmmm - that is interesting.  Many people speculating that it was a less than amicable split.  Of course, Joe was originally with Universal South when they merged with ShowDog.  He had much success with Universal, but since going with the merge he has only had one album, with one singled released.  So it does seem understandable that he is excited to embark on new adventures - things obviously weren't working there.

He does want to make a new record soon.
