The six-song EP arrives June 7th
Nineties country music icon and philanthropist Tracy Lawrence brings his signature, classic country sound to the forefront with highly-anticipated new music with “Out Here In It,” available now. The song is from his forthcoming six-track EP Out Here In It, due June 7th. The new music announcement comes two years after his 2022 Hindsight 2020 Vol 3 album and will feature carefully crafted cuts from some of Nashville’s hottest songwriters including Ernest Keith Smith, Rodney Clawson, Jacob Durrett, Wyatt McCubbin, Devin Dawson, Lee Thomas Miller and more.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been in the studio,” shares Lawrence. “I always have a blast working up new songs so it felt so good to cut new music. My last project, the 30th anniversary album Hindsight 2020, was the closing of a chapter of my life. With this new project, I really wanted to freshen things up a bit. A little bit more contemporary but still very country. I’m very proud of it and hope you all really enjoy it.”
In the project’s title track, out now, Lawrence takes listeners with him on a retrospective look at his life from where he is now. Further cementing his legendary status with a new classic for the ages, the self-reflecting track showcases Lawrence’s timeless and familiar sound as he recalls life’s hardships, successes, and all the moments in between. Lawrence focuses on soaking in each moment while appreciating the journey and acknowledging the importance of always living it to the fullest potential.
Complementing the highly-anticipated release, Lawrence also stars in a new music video. Set against Lawrence’s iconic cowboy silhouette, the video reels through the landscapes of life. Lawrence reminisces on the path that made him the person he is today and how his strong will still carries him through the good and the bad life may throw his way.
Lawrence will take his new music to the road as he joins Riley Green for his Ain’t My Last Rodeo Tour, beginning next Thursday, February 22nd in Pikeville, Kentucky. The 33-stop tour will visit amphitheaters and arenas throughout the spring, with notable stops in Houston, Lexington, Tuscaloosa, Knoxville, San Jose and Phoenix. Come May 4th, Lawrence will headline the Ryman Auditorium for the very first time.
