Evolving for its third installation of iconic country collaborations with a new artist at its helm, ‘HIXTAPE: Vol. 3: DIFFTAPE’ has been released today, as a tribute to GRAMMY and CMA Award-winning country legend, Joe Diffie.
Released in conjunction with the Diffie estate on the fourth anniversary of his passing, the album features never-before-heard recordings of Joe captured in 2006, and one previously unreleased original (“Life Had Plans For Me”) featuring his son, Parker.
“It is both an honor and a humbling experience to have been asked to participate in this extraordinary project,” Parker shares. “As someone who had the profound privilege of performing alongside my father, it fills my heart with immense joy to witness his enduring legacy continued with the same passion and fervor that he embodied. The release of ‘HIXTAPE: Vol. 3: DIFFTAPE’ is an opportunity to not only celebrate the past but also to embrace the future with reverence and enthusiasm.”
