Corn Fed is the debut studio album by American country music artist Shannon Brown, released on February 28, 2006, via Warner Bros. Nashville. This was Brown's first album to be officially released, as her two previously recorded albums for Arista Nashville and BNA (A Tour of My Heart and Untangle My Heart) went unreleased following lackluster success of their singles at radio. John Rich of the successful duo Big & Rich produced this album, making it similar to the sounds of other country acts at the time such as Gretchen Wilson.
Corn Fed was received favorably by music critics. Two singles were released, the title track and "Pearls". "Corn Fed," the title track, became her first chart entry since 2002's "Untangle My Heart," hitting number 47 on the US Hot Country Songs chart. "Pearls" meanwhile, did not chart. The album reached the top ten of the Heatseekers Albums chart while also entering the Top Country Albums and Billboard 200 charts.
Two songs were previously recorded by other artists; "She Brings the Lightning Down" was initially recorded by Rich on his 1999 debut studio album Underneath the Same Moon , which would officially get a release the same year, and "Why", which would become a number one single for Jason Aldean and was included on his 2005 self-titled debut studio album.
