Bucky Covington's in the studio (with a very cool special guest, via Twitter)

eOne Licensing's Stalwart Anonymous Twitterer (apologies--I wish we knew your name, sir!), Shooter Jennings and Bucky Covington look content in this studio shot shared by eOne today. The photo came with a caption that'll make any music lover smile: "Hanging with @ShooterJennings and @buckycovington in the studio yesterday. Two killer albums coming out soon". We're looking forward to both! In the meantime, Bucky's hot new single, "I Wanna Be That Feeling", is on sale now at iTunes. (Click image to view full size.)

Bucky Covington's been busy on the road and in the studio, and today, we got not one but a pair of tweets complete with cool studio photographs. Bucky's label, eOne, shared that fine shot of Bucky with the awesome (ok, I'm a fan) Shooter Jennings, and Bucky himself tweeted this photo with a fun message: "In studio yesterday recording with a very special guest - guess who? #IWannaBeThatFeeling". Yep...we really, really are looking forward to Bucky's sophomore album in the spring of '12...

For now, we'll be able to enjoy some of the songs from Bucky's upcoming album live a couple more times before the year draws to a close. Here are those December concert reminders once again:

Saturday, December 17th at the Dixie Carter Performing Arts Center in Huntingdon, TN: Tickets for this afternoon, all-ages show are available now at the venue's website, or call (731) 986-2100 to order by phone.

Bucky Covington and Rocky Covington share a microphone for their "Seven Spanish Angels" duet at the Alamdeda County Fair; photo by the very kind Minnie. Thanks again!

Sunday, December 18th at Lightning Strikes Bowling Center in Trussville, AL: Bucky Covington will be the celebrity bowler at "Bowling With Bucky", a benefit for the family of injured Birmingham Fire Fighter Brad Dean presented by BLEVE and Entertainment One Music. The event begins at 1 pm and ends at 4pm; you can buy a $25 ticket for both bowling and an acoustic performance, or a $10 performance-only seat. (Children under 10 will be admitted to the show free.) The venue is located at 3600 Roosevelt Blvd in Trussville, and more information is available now on Facebook.

As for hearing Bucky on the radio...word has it that his new single has already enjoyed some airtime ahead of its official release! Lisa just mentioned on Twitter that a local station in Wisconsin is playing "I Wanna Be That Feeling", and even with the holiday programming taking over the country airwaves, those new song rating shows might have a pleasant surprise for you, too. We'll see you very soon...have a great night!
