But in a metaphysical sense we can create and leave behind more energy and love then we started with or in some cases less. But hopefully the former of course. Oh yeah and deer hunting too.”
The song is the second unveiled from Turnpike Troubadours’ highly anticipated new album, A Cat in the Rain, which will be released August 25 via Bossier City Records/Thirty Tigers. Produced by Shooter Jennings and recorded at Muscle Shoals’ Fame Recording Studios and Dave’s Room in Los Angeles, A Cat in the Rain marks a long-awaited return for the band following their self-imposed hiatus in 2019. With these ten new songs, Turnpike Troubadours is back with a refreshed perspective on the authentic songwriting and signature foot-stomping sound that first captivated their deeply devoted fanbase.
Since their 2005 debut, Turnpike Troubadours has released five studio albums including 2017’s self-released A Long Way From Your Heart, which reached #3 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and #20 on the all-genre Billboard 200. Of the record
