The song was co-written by Ducas and Texas artist Randy Rogers, who enjoyed recent Top 40 country chart success with the Ducas-penned “Kiss Me In The Dark.” To introduce fans to his real country sound with a modern kick, Ducas will be initially offering the track as a free download on iTunes as well as donating proceeds from its sales to Texas Children’s Hospital.

NASHVILLE, TN - July 20, 2010 - The old saying “life is like a bowl of cherries” is one phrase that David and Howard Bellamy of the Bellamy Brothers certainly disagree with… at least, in today’s day and age.  In fact, the brothers believe that life nowadays is much more comparable to a bowl of jalapenos.

Last month via YouTube,  the country music legends debuted their new controversial video, ‘Jalapenos’ and have since racked up over 400,000 hits...  all with virtually zero promotion.

“We’re really pleased at the reaction to our new video, ‘Jalapenos,’ raves David Bellamy. “Seems like we’ve successfully offended the people we are trying to offend!”

The Bellamy Brothers take a ‘no holds barred’ approach throughout the video, taking aim at politicians, celebrities, and yes, even the little blue pill known as Viagra.
