Paul Cauthen Slates ‘Black On Black’ For October

/by

Rising artist Paul Cauthen is set to release his new album, Black on Black, on Oct. 25 via Anemoia Records/Atlantic Records.

Today (Aug. 19), to tease the new record, Cauthen released the track “Sweetheart from the Trailer Park” from the project, and announced headline shows in Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle and more for the fall.

“Sweetheart from the Trailer Park” comes one the heels of the recently released “Hot Damn” and forthcoming title track “Black on Black.” These new songs mark a pivotal time for the Cauthen, who brought out Lana Del Rey to duet “Unchained Melody” during his Stagecoach performance and scored a feature on Shaboozey’s track “Last of my Kind” from his recent album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going.

Black on Black was largely recorded at Rosewood Studios in Cauthen’s hometown of Tyler, Texas with collaborator Jason Burt and crafted during the artist’s tour across North America on his motorcycle and tour bus.

Cauthen, affectionately known as “Big Velvet” for his smooth baritone voice, grew up singing in the church choir. He steadily made himself known throughout the country and Americana genres as a part of the duo Sons of Fathers before taking his career solo with debut album, My Gospel. Since then, he has released two more albums Room 41 and Country Coming Down and toured across the world sharing stages with Margo Price, Orville Peck, Elle King, Midland, Cody Jinks and more.
