Josh Turner announces birth of his second son

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Country singer Josh Turner and his wife, Jennifer, are the parents of a second son.

The singer’s record label, MCA Nashville, on Tuesday announced the birth of Colby Lynch Turner. The baby was born Friday.

The Turners are also parents to 2-year-old Hampton.

Turner says in a statement that he had been in the studio the past several weeks recording his fourth album and his producer jokingly told his wife she needed to wait until they finished the record to have the baby.

Turner says they wrapped up the album at 6 p.m. Thursday, Jennifer went into labor after he got home and they were at the hospital by 10:30 p.m. that night.

Turner, whose hits include “Long Black Train,” ”Your Man” and “Firecracker,” calls it perfect timing.
