Dave Barnes To Release New Album ‘Dreaming In Electric Blue’

Dave Barnes

Dave Barnes has set the release date of his upcoming tenth album, Dreaming in Electric Blue, for April 3. Barnes is the sole writer for every song on the album.

“This album is my first album that I’ve produced and written everything by myself, which I’m really excited about!” said Barnes. “I also think it’s a great snapshot of the variety of the kinds of music I like to make – a little of bit of a lot of things.”

Barnes has penned songs for Tim McGraw, Thomas Rhett and Maren Morris, Lady Antebellum, Carrie Underwood, Reba McEntire, Marc Broussard, Billy Currington, Hunter Hayes, Ben Rector and many others, and received Grammy and CMA nominations for Blake Shelton’s cut of his song “God Gave Me You.”

In support of the new project Barnes will also be kicking off a string of intimate tour dates beginning April 23 in Houston and running through May 24.
