Brantley Gilbert’s New Album To Feature Willie Nelson, Jamey Johnson, Alison Krauss

August 2, 2019/by Jessica Nicholson

Over the release of his previous four albums, BMLG artist Brantley Gilbert crafted a blend of heavy metal spirit-meets-country sensibilities, along with a devil may care attitude. His fifth album, Fire & Brimstone, out Oct. 4 via Valory Music Co., reflects the myriad of roles he now embodies–rocker, singer, songwriter, husband and father. He wrote or co-wrote all 15 tracks on the album, including the recently released tribute to his children, “Man That Hung The Moon.”

He brings in several top shelf collaborators, including Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, Jamey Johnson, Lukas Nelson, his “Dirt Road Anthem” co-writer Colt Ford, and “Stays In A Small Town” co-hort Lindsay Ell. Producers on the album include Brandon Day, Mike Elizondo, and Dann Huff.

“I know it sounds crazy, but never did I once bring a lyric sheet into the studio with me,” Gilbert says regarding the recording process for the new album. “I feel like I am at this stage in my career where I am confident enough to let the music take me where it’s meant to go, no matter how down and dirty that might be. There is no doubt that this is the album that allowed me to grow up musically.”

In April, Gilbert released a cartoon video for the 4/20-ready track “Welcome To Hazeville,” featuring Colt Ford, Lukas Nelson and Willie Nelson.
