SINGLE “RAININ ON ME” OUT NOW;
LISTEN HERE AND WATCH OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO HERE
Nashville, TN – Today, Country singer-songwriter Wade Bowen announced his new album, Flyin (Bowen Sounds via Thirty Tigers/The Orchard), to be released on Friday, May 10th. The 12-track record features a curated track listing of diverse songs ranging from old fashioned honky-tonk country to gut-wrenching ballads, classic rock and even a love song to Texas that highlights how his home state shaped who he is today. Flyin is available for pre-order now through the link HERE.
As the second project that Bowen has produced fully himself, Flyin came together over the course of a year and provides listeners with an unexpected array of songs that will keep them on their toes and take them through a unique, musical journey. With this album, Bowen was able to explore the individuality of each song and take a deep dive into his creativity through songwriting and storytelling.
“More than ever, people need to hear songwriters talk about their lives,” Bowen said. “We don’t always have to search for monster hits. We can just write about our lives and maybe that might actually work. That’s what this record is a lot of. A lot of massive songs, but also a lot of me just writing authentically and honestly about my life.”
Flyin will be Bowen’s tenth studio album, and it marks the next phase of his career, stating “I feel like I’m flying into this chapter where I’m the best version of myself that I’ve ever been. Y’all better catch up or you’re getting left behind. I’m on fire!”
Alongside this announcement, Bowen also released the first single from the album, “Rainin On Me,” with an accompanying music video; listen to the new track HERE and check out the official music video HERE. Written alongside good friend Randy Montana, “Rainin on Me” is an up-tempo, Eagles-inspired track that takes Bowen back to the music he listened to growing up. The video brings the lyrics to life from Bowen embracing complete sadness in the rain to drowning his sorrows in a bar and contemplating while driving down the Texas roads.
