Lee Brice will release his fourth album for Curb Records on Nov. 3. The self-titled, 15-song project features the single “Boy,” as well as tracks including “Story To Tell,” co-written with Edwin McCain and Phillip Lammonds.
“My hero came to my garage, and we wrote two songs,” Brice says of McCain. “Before I came to town, I knew Edwin McCain and his music; went to his concert every year at the House of Blues. Those records, I knew by heart growing up… and he has a lot of the same Southern influences. He knows those same things that matter to me, they’re in his music.”
Brice plays the majority of lead guitar on the album, and co-wrote 11 of the album’s tracks.
“When I started, I wanted this record to be groovy, stripped down to the message and the feel. There are no computer tricks, no artificial sounds. Songs that are pleasing to the heart — songs that make you feel something in your heart — they don’t need all that stuff,” Brice says. “Even when it sounds like a computer, I promise, we figured out a way to make that sound. To me, being real was everything. I wanted to put a little piece of everything about me, everything I am on this record. No two songs are about the same things, but somehow it all hangs together.”
