Oak Ridge Boys Share New ‘Buried Treasures’ Collection Due In October

/by

The Oak Ridge Boys‘ latest album, Buried Treasures, will be released Oct. 30 via Lightning Rod Records.

Produced and engineered by Anderson East, Buried Treasures finds the Oaks returning to collection of songs they have loved forever including Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” Bill Withers’ “Lean on Me,” Billy Joe Shaver’s “Live Forever” and more. Penned by Aaron Raitiere, title track from the project, which is the only newly-written song, is out now.

“Every song on the album is about something that’s dear to us,” says the band’s Duane Allen. ” “These songs are all buried treasures — great songs we’ve loved and sung for years, and this is the first time we’ve brought them all together on one record.”

“It was a lot of fun, reaching back to some of these classic songs,” adds William Lee Golden. “I feel like this album touched on our love of life, love of family, love of our mates that we’ve chosen in life, and also the love of God.”

The Oaks begin their fall tour with three nights at the Grand Ole Opry House beginning tonight (Sept. 3) and remain on the road through December.
