The new artist is on tour with Post Malone
Multi-instrumental singer-songwriter and Grammy/ACM nominated Chandler Walters releases his first song, “Worth The Trouble.” The new song is featured on DeVille Records’ inaugural project Cadillac Sessions, out on Wednesday, May 7th. The song follows DeVille founder Ernest’s collaboration “Gettin’ Gone” with Snoop Dogg, Rhys Rutherford’s “Southern Belle” and Cody Lohden’s “Tail Light, Porch Light, Miller Lite.”
“Making music alongside my brothers ERN, Rhys and Cody was special from the start,” shares Walters. “We want to write the best country music in the world, make ya sad and happy. Couldn’t be happier that my first song ‘Worth The Trouble’ is out now.”
Bringing energy back to the classic-country tradition, Walters is already a seasoned steel-guitar player and multi-Platinum, all-genre No. 1 songwriter for his contributions on Post Malone’s five-time platinum, all-genre No. 1 single “I Had Some Help” featuring Morgan Wallen, and continued stint as Post’s steel guitarist. Walters joins Post Malone on tour again this summer – as an opener on The Big Ass Stadium Tour and host of official after parties dubbed Walters Western Road Show in select cities.
After racking up an impressive list of cuts, including six on Post Malone’s buzzed-about F-1 Trillion record, as well as songs for Ernest, Bailey Zimmerman and Charles Wesley Godwin, Walters’ burgeoning artistic career is now kicking off, schooled on a mix of rock and country influence.
Cadillac Sessions is a mixtape-style compilation featuring two new originals and one cover from Ernest, Walters, Rutherford and Lohden – plus special guests Snoop Dogg, Miranda Lambert and Jake Worthington. The organic sonics of honky tonk, Western swing, ’90s country, and more collide with vivid imagery and modern hooks on the project, becoming a hybrid of classic and cutting edge which positions each artist’s skill. Production was done at Nashville’s Castle Recording Studios and filmed documentary-style capturing the creative camaraderie – and the spark of first-time artists living out their dreams, essential to country’s next chapter.
