Win a Signed Colt Ford Cowboy Hat, T-Shirt and ‘Declaration of Independence’ Album

Colt Ford will be preparing for the release of his fourth studio album by signing his name to some pretty cool garb. In addition autographed copies of his new 'Declaration of Independence' album, which hits stores on Aug. 7, Taste of Country is giving you a chance to win some Colt Ford swag in the form of a signed cowboy hat and album-themed T-shirt.

By entering your email address, you'll be in the pot to win a prize pack, which includes the signed hat, T-shirt and 'Declaration of Independence' album, also autographed by the 'Back' singer. Two runner-ups will each snag a copy of the August release, also inked by Ford.

Only one entry per person is allowed, and be sure to read the official Taste of Country contest rules before entering. There is no age restriction for this contest, so everyone is free to win. Contest closes on Aug. 31, 2012.

Jake Owen helps Ford out on 'Back,' the album's lead single, but 'Declaration of Independence' is packed with collaborations with Kix Brooks, Jason Aldean, Darius Rucker, Laura Bell Bundy and more. Ford promises an album that is the most honest album he's ever made.

“The last two records -- I stand up and cheer for them -- but I tried to make a lot of people happy on the last two records and I took the edge off of it," Ford says. On this record I put the edge back on there."

As always, Ford is currently busy on the road, with dates lined up through November.
