Award winning singer/songwriter Jack Ingram is introducing the critically acclaimed ballad "Seeing Stars" off his recently released album BIG DREAMS & HIGH HOPES to radio this week.  Americana heroine and long-time friend Patty Griffin is also featured on the ethereal track.

"The relationship with God or with Jesus or with anybody that you follow religiously -- it seems like we're all guilty of only keeping that relationship up when we're really in need," Ingram recently explained to CMT. "This song is admitting guilt to that. Like, 'I know I don't talk to You enough,' or 'I know I don't reach out enough when times are good. And now that times are bad, here I am again but I need some help.'  You just go ahead and ask for it anyway."

Written by Ingram and GRAMMY winner Chris Thomkins, the contemplative track was labeled "enchanting" by Billboard and "gorgeous" by Newsday, while the Arizona Daily Star called it an "ingenious pairing of his gritty, raw vocals with those of the angelic-voiced Patty Griffin."
