Blackberry Smoke Announces New Album “Find A Light,” Release New Song

News 92 Comments

I don’t care how bad your week has sucked, or how mopey you are that you’ve already reneged on your New Year’s resolutions, Blackberry Smoke just announced they have a new album on the way, have just unveiled a new song, and all is right in the world, at least where hard-driving Southern-inflected roots rock is concerned.

Off the hard-earned and independently-won success of two consecutive records going #1 on the country charts—including the first independently-released album to debut in the top spot in modern history with 2015’s Holding All The Roses—Blackberry Smoke is back with their newest record Find A Light to be released on April 6th. Produced by the band themselves, their 6th LP overall once again sees front man Charlie Starr writing or co-writing the album’s 13 tracks.

Along with a heavy dose of Blackberry Smoke, Find A Light is also heavy on collaborations, with pedal steel maestro Robert Randolph joining the set on a song called “I’ll Keep Ramblin’,” Amanda Shires shows up to lend her voice to “Let Me Down Easy,” and The Wood Brothers—who have their own album called One Drop of Truth coming out Feb. 2nd—drop in to collaborate on the album’s final track, “Mother Mountain.” Travis Meadows also co-write as few songs on the new record.

“The new album is a melting pot of Blackberry Smoke music with a wide range of sound and emotion,” says frontman Charlie Starr. “I think it’s our most inspired work yet.”

Find a Light is now available for pre-order, and is preluded with the release of a new song, the sludgy, almost grunge-like “Flesh & Bone.” These Southern rock bastards will also be hitting the road hard and heavy in the next many months around the new release, so check the dates below the YouTube player.
