Bucky Covington is the self-titled debut album of American country music artist Bucky Covington. It was released by Lyric Street Records, the country division of Hollywood Records, on April 17, 2007. The album produced three singles — "A Different World," "It's Good to Be Us," and "I'll Walk" — all of which were Top 20 hits on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The song "Empty Handed" was also featured in the video game NASCAR 08.
The album was produced by Mark Miller, lead singer of the country music band Sawyer Brown, and recorded in Nashville, Tennessee. Two other members of Sawyer Brown — Gregg "Hobie" Hubbard and Jim Scholten — also contribute on background vocals and bass guitar, respectively.
The album debuted at number four on the Billboard 200, selling about 61,000 copies in its first week. It also debuted at number one on Top Country Albums, which was at the time the best opening week for a debut album by a male on the country charts since Billy Ray Cyrus' 1992 debut Some Gave All.; but later surpassed by Danny Gokey whose debut album sold 65,000 copies in its first week. The set has sold approximately 405,000 copies as of June 2009.
