Charley Crockett unleashes new track ‘Solitary Road’
Charley Crockett has released the track ‘Solitary Road’, a third preview from his upcoming album ‘$10 Cowboy’. For ‘$10 Cowboy’, Crockett wrote freely, over a two-month period, as he wound his way across the United States on the back of a tour bus. The resulting songs—raw, personal, vivid portraits of a country in transition—ended up being connected.
‘$10 Cowboy’ was recorded at Arlyn Studios in Austin, TX, produced by Crockett and his long-time collaborator Billy Horton. It was recorded live to tape, with anywhere from 6-12 musicians on each track, giving the songs the feel of a live performance. It’s a sound Crockett has been after for years. “The reason I cut it on tape is, when you get the right folks in the room, great players rise to the occasion. When that red light is on and the tape is rolling, you get the magic of a performance.”
It’s exactly what he achieved with ‘$10 Cowboy’. Regular bandmates Kullen Fox, Nathan Fleming, and Mario Valdez are joined by some of the genre’s most talented players—Rich Brotherton, Kevin Smith, Dave LeRoy Biller, Jason Lee Moeller, T. Jarrod Bonta and others, including a string quartet. Lauren Cervantes and Angela Miller sing on the album. A true collective work, ‘$10 Cowboy’ promises to be one of Crockett’s most scintillating releases thus far.
