History [link]

Bice's debut album, The Real Thing, was with RCA. According to BoBice.com, he is now signed with the indie label $ugarmoney/StratArt, a partnership between Bo and the label of Strategic Artist Management, his management company. The album was released as a Wal-Mart exclusive.[1]

Bice stated about the sound of "See the Light" that[2]:

“ On the next album I’d like to go more rootsy, more country, more southern rock Bo. ”

"It's a star-studded cast, and I'm the only one on there who's not famous," the ever-humble Bice joked. "I picked and co-wrote the songs that if I was a guy who would be spending my hard-earned money buying an album I would want to hear." That means original back-to-basics Southern rock and country-tinged singer/songwriter tunes co-written with A.J. Croce (son of 1970s singer Jim Croce) and Chris Tompkins (Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats").[3]

Bice also stated that he wrote 31 songs for his upcoming album and is narrowing down to 10 to 12 songs. The songs will feature session performances by classic and southern rock luminaries keyboardist Chuck Leavell, The Black Crowes’s drummer Steve Gorman, and guitarist Waddy Wachtel (who has worked with just about everyone, including The Rolling Stones, Bryan Ferry, Stevie Nicks and Bob Seger).

    See The Light

    by: Earth Wind And Fire

    Lookin' through the clouds, what do you see?
    Sky of gases, child in need
    Troubles everywhere, more than I can bear
    So I'm searching from within
    Help them see the light
    I'm a blossom, in the sun, sunshine of love
    Singing loud to the one, I love above.
    Shine on sun, let your light, guide my way.
    For so long, there's been such darkness,
    Got to be a better way
    Keep me lord, help me to grow.
    So I may, reap the fruits, of a free and happy soul.
    Help them see the light.
    Give me strength, when temptation calls.
    Lift me up when life's battles make me fall.
    Shelter me from the evil and the wrong.
    So when ya call, dear lord, I said I'll be strong.
    Walk with me, when the stormy nights are cold,
    In your hand lies all control.
    Master, then when my final song is sung,
    With your mercy, I pray that you'll say well done.
    Help them see the light
