Nashville, TN-American Idol finalist and former Marine Josh Gracin releases his first single from a new album. The new single, "Favorite State Of Mind," is the first new music from Gracin in nearly a year.

Written by Marcel and Blair Daly, "Favorite State Of Mind" is the follow-up to the #1 smash "Nothin' To Lose" and the Top 5 hits "Stay With Me (Brass Bed)" and "I Want To Live."

Josh recorded the new project with Marty Williams, who also produced his self-titled debut release.

"On the first record I was still on active-duty so I would fly between Camp Pendleton in California and the studio in Nashville to record," says Josh. "This time around it was a lot easier because I could stay in one place and be at home with my family."

Josh Gracin's self-titled debut is certified Gold by the RIAA. His new CD, featuring "Favorite State Of Mind," is scheduled for release in June 2006.
