The band’s fifth studio album will drop this spring
Gearing up for what promises to be an unforgettable chapter, Locash will unveil their eagerly awaited fifth album, Bet The Farm, on April 18th via their own record label Galaxy Label Group in partnership with BMG. It notably marks their first full-length LP since 2019.
Bet The Farm stands out as their most personal, passionate, and poignant body of work to date. The duo comprised of Chris Lucas and Preston Brust thread messages of resilience, determination, belief, and positivity into the LP’s musical tapestry of arena-ready country and classic songcraft uplifted by pop ambition and rock grit.
This time around, Lucas and Brust both opted to open up more than ever before. Audiences initially fell in love with this unabashed honesty on the previously released scene-setting hit single and opener “Hometown Home.” The latter soars as an anthem about appreciating what you’ve got punctuated by a skyscraping guitar solo and the chantable chorus, “We can make this hometown home, keep our roots where they’ve also grown.”
“When I’m Older” notably co-stars mega-popular influencer couples Maggie and Jaron Clayton and The Kelley Family. The video depicts a series of tender moments between the real-life spouses intercut with performance footage of Locash shot outside under a bright gray sky. Maggie and Jaron joke and flirt as baristas behind the bar of a coffee shop as Jay and Gabrielle sip warm beverages, laugh, and lock eyes. The camera also focuses on an older couple still very much in the deep embrace of their romance. The clip embodies the sentiment of this bold ballad uplifted by eloquent instrumentation and heavenly vocal delivery.
Over the weekend, the two made their mark in the cult-favorite Savannah Bananas history books with the first ever Banana Ball halftime show at NFL Stadium. Performing together at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, FL, the crew brought their undeniable energy to a sold-out crowd of 65,000 fans.
Next up, the duo will headline the 29th annual Key West Songwriters Festival Street Show on May 3rd in Key West, Florida. The show is free and starts at 7 pm.
Locash is also feeling the love at country radio, with their wildly popular single “Hometown Home” verging on No. 1. A tribute to the pure magic of putting down roots in the place that raised you, “Hometown Home” marks the duo’s fourth trip into country radio’s upper echelon – following the platinum hit “I Love This Life,” and gold No 1s “One Big Country Song” and “I Know Somebody” – and it’s still building momentum.
