Lewis is all over "The Hill"

This follows his 2022 disc, "Frayed at Both Ends," which also was acoustic.

Produced by Lewis alongside Ira Dean, the 10 songs feature Lewis' vocals with backing from a guitar, Dobro and mandolin.

"Music has always been my escape, my way of expressing the things that I don't express very well in life," Lewis said. "I'm coming up on 52 years old, and I'm on the hill I'm going to stand on. Nobody's going to change me now. This record is a snapshot of my life and how I'm feeling and where my head is at, and that's what my records have always been."

"It's another record that's just really stripped down to the guts," he said. "I like raw. I like life's imperfections showing through. I'm not perfect, nobody is. And I don't want the music I'm putting out to be either."

The opening track, an upbeat song that's "very much not about going fishing," "Let's Go Fishing" finds Lewis calling out the nation's problems – but deciding to leave them for another day. Co-written with Bobby Pinson, "I find the whole thing tongue-in-cheek," Lewis said.

"Somebody's got to live this shit, and these songs, they're me," he says. "I really don't feel like I'm alone in my feelings – I'm just more willing to open up my mouth."
