Paisley unveils new music
Paisley wants listeners to experience these four songs in this specific sequencing to help paint the journey involved in writing the music for this record. Paisley said the album "doesn't shy away from reflecting real life and real situations going on in America and in our world today. This is what I think country music is about, which is truth."
"Son Of The Mountains: The First Four Tracks" includes the previously released tracks "Same Here" featuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and "So Many Summers" plus the newly released title track "Son Of The Mountains" and "The Medicine Will." The full studio album is anticipated for release in early 2024
Paisley will premiere the music videos in a live stream event today in partnership with YouTube and journalist Chris Willman of Variety at 1 p.m. eastern time today.
The new songs released today, "Son Of The Mountains" and "The Medicine Will," are representations of the Appalachian region including Paisley's home state of West Virginia.
Paisley created videos, directed by Jim Shea and edited by Paisley, to encapsulate the sentiment of each song. "Son Of The Mountains" recording and video both feature Dan Tyminski and Jerry Douglas and include scenery of the state. "The Medicine Will" focuses on the opioid epidemic and was shot in black and white and in the depths of a coal mine featuring real life-stories of addicts, survivors and first responders.

CD reviews for Brad Paisley
Brad Paisley isn't content to keep doing the same old. In fact, this is probably the least traditional country outing in his career. Yet, a few things remain intact - great guitar playing and singing and a sense of humor without being too kitschy.
In fact, Paisley manages to combine the ultra serious with his typical sense of humor. The seriousness is never more apparent from Paisley than on the controversial Accidental Racist with LL Cool J, who helped write and perform it. ...
Brad Paisley's new live hits CD is a bit of a tease. That's because it only goes half way in replicating the true live Paisley experience. Watching the accompanying concert videos at a Paisley show, whether the venue screen is showing Andy Griffith during Waitin' on a Woman or the montage of recently-deceased celebrities that accompanies When I Get Where I'm Going, reveal how Paisley simply must be seen to be fully enjoyed.
Nevertheless, Paisley in concert and captured on ...
Brad Paisley has grown up on his eighth album. Yes, the West Virginian maintains a sense of humor, but apparently aging has left its mark on a maturing singer who has never forsaken his country roots. That is ever so apparent in songs like Anything Like Me and Oh Yeah, You're Gone. The former finds Paisley looking at the passage of time through his son's life in a tender, but not sappy look.
