The Storm is the tenth studio album released by country music artist Travis Tritt. It was also his only album for the Category 5 Records label.

History

Five of this album's tracks are covers: "Should've Listened" was originally recorded by Canadian rock band Nickelback on their The Long Road album, "I Don't Know How I Got By" was originally recorded by Edwin McCain for the soundtrack of the film The Family Man, "You Never Take Me Dancing" was previously recorded by Richard Marx on his album Flesh and Bone, "Somehow, Somewhere, Someway" was written/recorded by Kenny Wayne Shepherd from his 1997 album, Trouble Is..., and "The Pressure Is On" is the title cut of a 1981 album release by Hank Williams, Jr.. "You Never Take Me Dancing" was released as a single from this album, reaching number 27 on the Hot Country Songs charts in 2007. It was followed by "Something Stronger Than Me", which failed to chart. Category 5 closed soon afterward.

In 2013, Tritt acquired the rights to the album in order to re-release it via his own Post Oak Records under the title The Calm After... The re-release includes a cover of the Patty Smyth and Don Henley duet "Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough" with his daughter, Tyler Reese,[1] and a cover of Faces' "Stay with Me".[2] The Calm After... sold more than 2.000 copies in its opening week and entered the Country Albums chart at number 31.
