Popular country music singer-songwriter James Otto will perform at Edgecombe Community College on Friday, August 29. The concert begins at 8 p.m. in Keihin Auditorium, located in the Fleming Building on the Tarboro campus. In 2002, James Otto, who served two years in the U.S. Navy, met Scott Parker of Mercury Nashville Records, who signed him to a record deal that year. His first single, “The Ball,” peaked at #45 on the Billboard country charts. “Days of Our Lives,” his third release for the label, was released in late 2003, rising to #33 on the country charts. Soon after, his debut album (also entitled Days of Our Lives) was released on Mercury, and in 2004 Otto was signed as an opening act for Shania Twain on her Up! Tour. In 2007, Otto signed to Warner Bros. Records Nashville. His first single for the label, “Just Got Started Lovin’ You,” was released as the first single from his second album (2008’s Sunset Man). “Just Got Started Lovin’ You” reached #1 on the Billboard country charts in May 2008, becoming the highest-charting single of his career. A second single from Sunset Man, entitled “For You,” was released in June 2008. Tickets for the concert are $20 for the public and $15 for students with a valid ECC ID.
