The album features 11 tracks including his melodic reverie in "Lay Low" and his currently climbing Top 20 hit, "Hometown Girl." <br><br>"I'm really proud of this album," says Turner. "It was really important for me to expand creatively and explore in new ways for this record. The way I pick songs is different now. There are so many things in my life and career that have matured me as an artist."<br><br>Turner follows that thought with the reminder, "I've had another child since my last project!" <br><br>For Turner, the title Deep South represents hardworking people who find joy in the simple things in life; heritage, church, community, high school sports, being outdoors. "It is a culture."
