Billboard Magazine has great things to say about Josh Gracin's new single Favorite State of Mind:

"Single Pick of the Week. Perhaps it is no longer fashionable to mention that Josh Gracin is a season two American Idol finalist. Then again, season four winner Carrie Underwood recently topped the country singles chart and debut victor Kelly Clarkson is now a two-time Grammy winner. Certainly, statistics are in the former Marine's favor. He has already scored three top five hits, including the #1 Nothin' to Lose last March. Favorite State of Mind is a rousing, party-hardy jukebox directive, targeting fans who enjoy an embossed familiarity with classic giddy-up country. Gracin's vocal is convincing, and the fast-paced melody and its percussion-heavy opening and destined to be a two-step staple at apropos dance halls. Like Clarkson before him, with this, Gracin glides toward a state of independence."
