Dylan Gossett, Westward
Penned solo and produced slowly following his Platinum “Coal” breakout, country’s Dylan Gossett documents a trail of inner discovery on his debut album, Westward. Featuring 17 minimalistic tracks, acoustic guitars, and intimate Texan vocals trace a lonesome trek toward the promised land. (Available July 18.)
Ketch Secor, Story the Crow Told Me
After fronting the beloved Old Crow Medicine Show for 25 years, Ketch Secor sets his tale of misfit musical stardom to song in Story The Crow Told Me, his solo debut. Co-writing 12 old-timey tracks in a “Kerouac-worthy” cycle of color commentary, the king of Nashville street buskers reigns. (Available July 11.)
Tanner Usrey, These Days
Mixing the spirit of Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers with a rambling Red Dirt vibe, rising star Tanner Usrey brings fresh energy to roots rock on These Days. A Texas native highlighted in hit shows like Yellowstone and Landman, his tunes are both raw and radiant – a juke box hero for a new age. (Available July 11.)
Sam Williams, Act II: Countrystar
Sam Williams continues his creative coming of age with the second part of an ongoing trilogy in Act II: COUNTRYSTAR. Seven bluntly introspective, deftly devised tracks embrace hip hop and modern pop, as the third generation of Hank Williams’ songwriting legacy carries on the family tradition. (Available July 11.)
