Wade Bowen apparently made an album for his mom that he never planned on releasing, but she's convinced him to to put it out there. Available March 18th.

"Then Sings My Soul…Songs For My Mother was originally just a gift for Bowen’s mom, her friends and family. It was not intended for commercial release but with such great response and positive feedback, Bowen decided to share it. Limited number of autographed copies available. Available for pre-order starting March 4, 2016."

Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen Ready Live Album 'Watch This'
Set for a June 3rd release, the project is the Texas artists' second collaboration, following 2015's 'Hold My Beer'
BY CHRIS PARTON May 18, 2016

Texas country favorites and longtime buddies Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen have been touring together for almost a decade now and even released a joint album named after those tours in 2015, Hold My Beer: Vol. 1. Still, they’ve never captured the essence of those low-key yet highly entertaining shows until now.

On June 3rd, Rogers and Bowen will release Watch This, a 19-track live acoustic album sourced from their hugely popular tours. Recorded in stripped-down fashion at the House of Blues in Dallas and Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos, Texas — a launch pad for legendary Texan acts like George Strait and the spot Rogers and Bowen first met 15 years ago — the album acts as a companion piece to Hold My Beer: Vol. 1, one of Rolling Stone Country's 40 best albums of last year.

"We toured as a duo together for eight years before we finally addressed the question: 'When are you guys going to do a Randy and Wade album?'" Rogers said in a statement. "So, we went into the studio with Lloyd Maines in the fall of 2013 and released Hold My Beer: Vol. 1 on April 20, 2015. We had a lot of fun throughout the entire process and felt the next natural thing to do was release a live acoustic album that reflected what it's like to be in the room during one of our shows.”

"Nineteen songs is a lot, but we couldn't bring ourselves to cut any of them," Bowen adds. "You'll hear them as we play them during our Hold My Beer and Watch This Tour, and you'll hear some pretty colorful banter, too. We pick on each other, but it's all in good fun. Besides, it's just us, our guitars, two microphones and our friends in the audience. It's pretty raw, and we wanted to keep it as true-to-live as possible."

The album will feature songs from both Rogers' and Bowen's deep well of windblown Texan country. Rather than signaling the conclusion of their collaborative work, it will actually help kick off the 10th annual trek of their Hold My Beer and Watch This Tour, which begins May 26th in Austin, Texas.

Here's the complete track list for Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen's Watch This:
1. "Tonight's Not the Night"
2. "Mood Ring"
3. "Buy Myself a Chance"
4. "Trouble"
5. "Interstate"
6. "Songs About Trucks"
7. "In My Arms Instead"
8. "You Had Me at My Best"
9. "Too Late for Goodbye"
10. "Whataburger"
11. "West Texas Rain"
12. "Fuzzy"
13. "Things I Could Do"
14. "Satellite"
15. "One Step Closer"
16. "Kiss Me in the Dark"
17. "Who I Am"
18. "She's Gonna Run"
19. "Saturday Night"

Seeing Mike and the Moonpies at a hole in the wall in Charlotte tonight. They kick ass.

 

Where at

 

Puckett's Farm Equipment.

 

New Cody Jinks next month.

Also I noticed that the red dirt bar in Chicago appears to be going away from it. We usually get about 8-12 shows in the summer but this year there are none. I'm super bummed about that.

 

Today i learned Anderson East is playing at the FSU student union in Nov. I will be attending

 

First single off of Whiskey Myers' upcoming new album, which is produced by Dave Cobb.

New Cody Jinks album out today. It's quite good.

 

I somehow missed this post and forgot about it. Woke up at 3 am last night and downloaded it. Life goals.

 

Just came back around to this Margo Price album and it's so good. Not Red Dirt per se but good throw back country.

 

Been a good year for non-mainstream female country singers. Margo, Sara Watkins, Lori McKenna, Brandy Clark have released fantastic new albums recently.

 

Dive bar in Scottsdale has TouchTunes. Put on some Jason Boland from my phone.

Sorostitute: "this isn't Katy Perry." :laughing:

 

New Whiskey Myers song. Really like it. http://theboot.com/whiskey-myers-stone/

 

God damn

 

Pat Green tonight. Hope he plays his better stuff, but worried he'll play most of his watered down Nashville stuff

 

I liked it. Really solid.

Listening to this right now. Damn it's good.

 

Robert Earl Keen tickets purchased

 

Going to see James McMurtry for the second time 11/4. He's just fantastic.

 

Turnpike is playing here in Tallahassee for the first time ever and I can't see them cause they sold out the venue in less than a week

 

You're only about 1000 behind me. I've seen that guy more than any other musician on the planet, and it never gets old.

 

Turnpike Friday. A&M Game Saturday.

 

Did the lead singer get his drinking/drugs shit together? I've always wanted to see them but haven't yet because I've heard he can be downright awful on an off night.

 

I saw them a couple months ago and he was fine. It was a worry of mine going into it as well.
