Lambert, Gilbert, Watson put out new music
Brantley Gilbert put out his seventh studio disc, "Tattoos." The release features 10 songs all co-written and co-produced by the Georgia native. The lead single was "Over When We're Sober" with Ashley Cooke. Justin Moore sings on the lead-off track, "Dirty Money," while Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts fame helps out on "God Isn't Country."
Vince Gill and Amy Grant, husband and wife, combined forces for "When I Think Of Christmas."
Willie Watson has released a self-titled disc, his first-ever solo album of original material more than 20 years into his career. Watson was a long-time member of Old Crow Medicine Show. The music is out via Little Operation Records (Thirty Tigers). Watson recorded the album in Los Angeles with producers Gabe Witcher (Punch Brothers) and Kenneth Pattengale (Milk Carton Kids) and with a crack band of players including Paul Kowert on bass (Punch Brothers), Dylan Day on guitar (Jenny Lewis, Nick Hakim), Benmont Tench on keys (The Heartbreakers), Jason Boesel on drums (Bright Eyes, Jenny Lewis) and Sami Braman on fiddle.
Americana singer-songwriter Kevin Gordon dropped "The In Between," his first full-length since 2018's "Tilt & Shine" and first since his throat cancer diagnosis. With guitars, drums, and bass completed for most tracks, but vocals for only one or two, the sessions went on indefinite pause while Gordon underwent radiation and chemotherapy. It took the better part of a year for doctors to certify Gordon as cancer-free. The disc contains 10 songs, nine written solely by Gordon.
Americana band Reckless Kelly released their first studio album in four years, "The Last Frontier." The 11-song collection, co-produced by Willy Braun, Cody Braun and Jonathan Tyler, features the band's blend of roots rock and country. Kelly Willis and Reckless Kelly's frontman Willy Braun duet on the title track.
