Lolene has placed the finishing touches on her second CD project and will release the album in early 2004.

Produced by Danny Parks, "Everything You Are" features Lolene's unique style and attitude with an array of country blues and country rock tunes. Several of the songs on this album were written by great Nashville song writers including Parks, Bill LaBounty and Gail Davies.

"Everything You Are" comes on the heels of Lolene's very successful debut album, "Lonely Dealin's" which propelled Lolene to the #10 most played country artist in the world for all of 2002 and featured six tracks that charted in the top 40.

"Clean Up" is one of the LaBounty tunes that Lolene released this summer as a single to international radio markets. "Clean Up" was well received by the DJs, charting on the EMS Top 60 and lifting Lolene to the top 25 most played artists.
