Country Star Aaron Tippin Debuts New Single 'Drill Here, Drill Now' On The
Sean Hannity Show

Song inspired by American Solutions' 'Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less'
movement

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In an interview today on The
Sean Hannity Show, former Speaker Newt Gingrich and country music star Aaron
Tippin debuted Tippin's new single entitled "Drill Here, Drill Now." The song
was inspired by American Solutions' "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" petition
drive that has gathered nearly 1.5 million signatures.

Like many Americans, Aaron Tippin was tired of paying too much for gas while
Congress did nothing about it. So he took action and wrote "Drill Here, Drill
Now," a song about what Americans should do to fix the problem. In this
powerful collision between pop culture and politics, Tippin calls on our
nation's leaders to pay attention to Americans who are asking for change: they
want to drill here and drill now so we can all pay less.

"Aaron's song masterfully captures the strong grassroots support for the
'Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less' movement," said American Solutions General
Chairman Newt Gingrich. "'Drill Here, Drill Now' the song is sure to take the
country - and Capitol Hill - by storm, and become the rallying cry for more
American-made energy now."

The lyrics and song preview are available at
