King is "Into the Neon"

Monday, October 23, 2023 – Texas traditionalist Randall King will release his sophomore major label effort, "Into the Neon," on Jan. 26, 2024 with 18 songs recorded.

"You grow wiser with age, you grow wiser while you're working and experiencing life, and I feel like I have a deeper understanding of what my music really is," King said.. "We're moving into the neon era of country music. The pendulum is swinging, and you're watching it happen. Now I just hope people get their mind blown."

Co-produced by King alongside Jared Conrad, Kind helped write 6 of the songs.

"Think I'm getting the hang of hanging all this music out there," King said. "I sure loved this song from the first time I heard it. Go spin your lady to this one y'all."

Despite being in the studio recording new music in 2023, King has stayed busy on the road, recently returning from his first-ever European tour in September, Neon Overseas, with a set of 11 shows, including sold-out stops in Cologne, Germany and London England.

CD reviews for Randall King

The second self-released effort of West Texas native Randall King is a throwback to mainstream '90s country with mixed results.
