Nichols finds out The Shape I'm In
Rhett Akins, Dallas Davidson and Ben Hayslip, otherwise known as the Peach Pickers, penned both songs, which are on Nichols' "Old Things New."
"It's a natural fit," said Nichols. "Same writers and same feel with the production as 'Gimmie that Girl,' plus, I'm a big fan of the Muscle Shoals groove/sound, and this song lends itself to that sound. It also has a 'feeling good' lyric. Definitely my kind of song."
Gimmie That Girl became the first single of 2010 to hold the number 1 position on the music charts for three consecutive weeks. Since 2008 6 other artists have had a single last three weeks at the top on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart (Lady Antebellum, Brad Paisley, Alan Jackson, Jason Aldean, Trace Adkins and Taylor Swift).
Nichols will be touring for the remainder of the summer and into the fall.

Such a lyrical tactic may grow tiresome quick, but hearing Nichols' resonant, traditional country singing voice will never ever get old.
Nichols is an extremely expressive singer, which is why he can sing ...
Joe Nichols suffers from a split personality. With a fine voice like his and songs from his past like Brokenheartsville, Nichols is strongly positioned to lay claim to being one of the very few last traditional country singers standing. There just aren't a whole lot of folks out there with the twang and phrasing (listen to how he holds the notes on the lead-off Just Let Me Fall in Love With You or the twang in Baby You're in Love With Me) out there like Nichols.
One of the prime ...
