Whiskey Myers To Release New Album In September
Whiskey Myers is set to release their seventh studio album, Whomp Whack Thunder, on Sept. 26 via the band’s own Wiggy Thump Records. Along with the announcement, the album’s lead single, “Time Bomb,” is available now.
The band, comprised of Cody Cannon (vocals, guitar), John Jeffers (guitar), Cody Tate (guitar), Jamey Gleaves (bass), Jeff Hogg (drums) and Tony Kent (percussion, piano), channels the spirit of classic rock through a modern southern lens. Produced by Jay Joyce, the album features 11 solo-written tracks from Cannon.
“We didn’t set out to chase a specific sound—we set out to make a Whiskey Myers record,” reflects Jeffers. “Jay pulled something out of us that’s raw and real, and every track’s got a piece of our story in it. This album’s about where we’ve been, what we’ve lived and the scars we earned along the way – and I think Whomp Whack Thunder might just be our most fearless album yet.”
Ahead of the fall release, fans can catch early previews of the new music on the “What We Were Born To Do Tour,” kicking off June 6 and hitting cities across the U.S. throughout the summer. Whiskey Myers also co-headlines 14 dates of the “Live in 25 Tour” with Tedeschi Trucks Band later this year in addition to headlining their own personally curated festivals; the seventh annual Wiggy Thump Festival on May 10 in their hometown of Palestine, Texas and the inaugural Moon Crush “Whiskey Moon” music vacation taking over Miramar Beach, Florida. Nov. 7-9.
The album is available for pre-order now.
