About The Record:

Somewhere in the Night, by Sawyer Brown, marked a significant creative breakthrough for the band as it was their first album fully recorded in a studio after winning the TV talent competition Star Search in 1984, allowing them to shed the lingering "TV band" stigma. Produced by Randy Scruggs, the record showcased a maturing sound that blended high-energy country-rock with more introspective ballads, reflecting the group's rapid evolution. Standout tracks and enduring fan favorites include the playful Lola's Love, the heartfelt title track Somewhere in the Night, and the nostalgic Old Photographs, alongside energetic cuts like Little Red Caboose and Dr. Rock N' Roll. The album delivered two major hit singles: This Missin' You Heart of Mine which climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, and Somewhere in the Night which reached No. 10. A unique footnote is that the band co-wrote seven of the ten songs, an early display of the strong songwriting partnership between Mark Miller and Gregg Hubbard that would define their career.
