Blue County, the dynamic young vocal duo, is poised to take the country by storm. Made up of two friends, Aaron Benward and Scott Reeves, they quickly learned that they shared a common bond beyond an ever-growing friendship. The two had grown up in environments where music became a passion. Their debut single, "Good Little Girls" hits country radio airwaves on September 29lhl with an album debut set for 1a quarter of 2004.

About Aaron Benward:
Bom in Auburn, Indiana, Aaron moved quile a bit with his family and found comfort in music. He was encouraged to perform by a close relative, yet it took him a bit longer to get into playing in front of people. He was raised in Houston until high school, when his family moved again, this time to Nashville. There, his father Jeffrey, a professional gospel singer, started inviting him to join in with him now and again. "It's funny," Aaron says. "We never sang together when I was growing up, but I certainly heard him sing a great deal. He never did it for financial reasons; it was always because of a passion to affect people through music. That spoke to me and instilled that idea to go for your dreams, no matter what."
In Nashville, Aaron had enrolled at Belmont University on a soccer scholarship, with a major in music industry studies. After a year or so he dropped out lo tour intensively with his dad. Together they played more than 130 concerts annually for several years and recorded three CDs

About Scott Reeves:
Los Angeles became home for Scott, whose father had taken a job with the police department in Beverly Hills. Glenn Campbell, whose roots also stretched back to Delight, was a close family friend and Scott's first big influence. With his Uncle Jack, Scott started singing while still quite young, always in a country vein. After finishing high school, Scott, who had been acting as well as playing music, took classes for two years at the Be vert y Hills Playhouse and picked up work in commercials and on television shows. "It really helped me in music," he says. "Country songs are often about stories, and my lessons made it easier for me to get into them and get across what they're trying to say,"

At this point, their stories connect, as Scott and Aaron meet through a mutual friend at the video shoot for Tamara Walker's "Didn't We Love." They went to dinner, discovered that they had a lot in common and agreed to keep in touch. Over the next several years they visited one another in Nashville or L.A., introduced their families to each other, began trading thoughts of what each hoped to do with his life. Conversations shifted to projects they might pursue as partners, from writing a screenplay to starring in a movie ...

Everything, that is, except making music.
'It is weird," Scott admits, "especially because I was a fan of Aaron's music. I guess I didn't want to step on his toes or make him feel obligated." Luckily, common sense-and a little gentle pressure from their wives--prevailed, and the guys decided to check out how it felt to sing together. Beginning with some of Aaron's songs, they found that their voices had an Everiy-like blend. They explored writing together or with other collaborators and scouting other material. Very quickly they assembled a set list, started sniffing around for a deal, and found themselves on a fateful day at Doug Johnson's office, an A&R head within Curb Records' Asylum subsidiary. The two strapped on their guitars and began performing a rough, unfinished demo.
"When we stopped," Scott remembers, "the first words out of Doug's mouth were: 'Man, one of you is really gonna have to screw this up to not make it work."
Once hands were shaken and contracts signed, Blue County hit the ground at full speed. They were rushed onto the road for performances at radio stations and concert venues throughout North America.
Upon returning to Nashville, they managed to get together with production wizard Dann Huff , and lay down several more tracks for their debut album set for release in early 2004.

"There's nothing more enjoyable for me to be onstage with my best friend Scott," Aaron says. "But that's not really what Blue County is about. The focus is the people we're singing for. Our prayer is that when people hear us, they know that what we do isn't about us - it's about them."
