Ronnie Milsap To Play TONIGHT SHOW Tomorrow Night

When "Lost in the '50s Tonight" appeared, it merged Carolina beach music, a deep dive into vintage soul and the yearning for that one innocent first love. The multiple week Country #1 and Top 10 AC hit that folded the Five Satins' "In The Still of the Night" into the song that went on to win Milsap his fourth Country Male Vocal Performance Grammy and led the album of the same name to his fourth Country Music Association Album of the Year Award melted eras and place literally and musically.

Now the time-stopping "Lost in the '50s Tonight" breaks even more ground. The Country Music Hall of Famer reprises the magic of his Duets recording with triple Grammy winners Little Big Town on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. They will be backed by the Roots as they blur genres in the name of good music February 6 on NBC.

"Kimberly, Jimi, Phillip and Karen can do anything," marvels Milsap, "and they do it so well. Being in the studio with them was incredible, because all four members of Little Big Town are incredibly musical! They're lovely people, and we had such a good time, I wanted to just keep going. After coming to my birthday party at the Ryman, which was wonderful, they're going to help me do a very special version of this song on The Tonight Show. Even better, we're going to be playing with the Roots, who are all very cool cats!

"I love the way music from all these different styles can come together. 'Lost in the '50s' reminds me of so many places in my own life. Listening to the Roots takes me to other places I've been as a very young man. Then when you add Little Big Town, it's everything wonderful about doo wop, about country, but even so much more."

Written by Mike Reid ("I Can't Make You Love Me") and Troy Seals ("Seven Spanish Angels"), "Lost In the '50s" was an anomaly in the glossy pop and traditional country driving '80s country radio. With its subdued rhythm, yearning emotion, the insertion of vintage rhythm & blues and lush vocals, it stood out pouring out of a car radio.

Milsap, who kicked off his 76 for 76 Tour January 16 at the Ryman Auditorium, is in full swing. The Tennessean proclaiming, "Retirement's not in Milsap's vocabulary," The Nashville. Scene headlining, "The Duets Reveals the Soul of a Country-Pop Matter" and Entertainment Weekly hailing the Duets for "the staying power of his hits."

In addition, the Duets is in Relix, PEOPLE, American Songwriter, Billboard, Garden & Gun.com, Rolling Stone Country, Goldmine, No Depression, Pollstar, and various country blogs, country preps and local outlets. Now this Wednesday, February 6, on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Milsap will bring one of his most iconic hits into people's homes with the help of some very special guests.

"The only thing more fun than being in the studio creating this music," Milsap says, "is being able to make this music live. It's where the songs really fire, and where people can tell how special this kind of chemistry is."
