“I went through this period of self-reflection and George Harrison’s song, ‘All Things Must Pass,’ was part of what got me through that moment,” Nelson said of the track. “ It gave me that understanding that it’s not for us to know what comes next. Everything changes and nothing stays the same.”
“American Romance,” produced by Shooter Jennings, is Nelson’s first solo project and his first with Sony Music Nashville. It features twelve tracks, including collaborations with Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr., and explores Nelson’s experiences traveling across the country.
“This album is the first chapter in a whole new era of my life as an artist. It’s a love story to the country that raised me. Diners and highways that carried me through the joy and pain that led to the music you hear now,” Nelson said.
Since his debut over a decade ago, Nelson has become one of the most respected voices in music and released eight studio albums, including 2023’s Sticks and Stones, which spent 18 weeks in the top 10 of the Americana Albums chart and reached #1 on the Alt-Country chart.
A highly sought-after collaborator both in the studio and on stage, Nelson recently joined forces with The Travelin’ McCourys and Sierra Ferrell for a bluegrass-inspired rendition of Adele’s iconic hit, “Someone Like You,” and has also worked with artists such as Lainey Wilson, Ernest, Miranda Lambert, The Pistol Annies and more.
