Rayland Baxter has announced a new album.
'Wide Awake' will arrive on July 13 through ATO Records. It was produced by Butch Walker, who also plays bass, while it features Cage the Elephant’s Nick Bockrath on guitar, Dr. Dog’s Erick Slick on drums, and Aaron Embry on keys, with Rayland’s father Bucky and Lloyd Green contributing pedal steel.
Speaking about the record, the Nashville-based singer-songwriter said:
“This is an album about decision making. It’s about being a human at the crossroads. Do I do good or do I do evil? Do I lie or do I tell the truth? Am I going to be happy or am I going to be sad? All of these questions and emotions are things I see in myself, and they’re the same things I see in everyone else no matter where I go.”
