Buddy & Julie Miller Slate ‘In The Throes’ For September

Buddy and Julie Miller are set to release their new album, In The Throes on Sept. 22 via New West Records.

The 12-song set was produced by Buddy and features guests such as Emmylou Harris, Regina McCrary, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Gurf Morlix and Matt Slocum of Sixpence None the Richer. In The Throes follows their 2019 album Breakdown on 20th Ave. South, their first album in a decade. The soulful collision of dusty country, gospel, blues and R&B came to life during an intensely creative period for Julie. She ended up with more than one hundred songs or fragments of songs —and penned every song on the project with the exception of “Don’t Make Her Cry,” which is a rare co-write between Julie,  Bob Dylan and McCrary.

McCrary started the song several years ago, then met with Dylan, who wrote, and rewrote more lyrics. Dylan suggested that Regina give it to Buddy to write the music, who then passed it to Julie, who added more lyrics and set it to music. Featuring a sympathetic lead vocal from Buddy, “Don’t Make Her Cry” is a soft-spoken ode to perseverance and protection.

In the Throes will be available digitally, on CD and standard black vinyl. A limited seaglass blue-colored vinyl edition autographed by Buddy and Julie will be available via independent retailers and is currently available for pre-order.
