Red Clay Strays have the "Devil In My Ear"

Friday, June 14, 2024 – The Red Clay Strays' new song, "Devil In My Ear," is debuting today alongside an official music video.

Written by guitarist Drew Nix, "Devil In My Ear" explores the effects of depression, anxiety and self-doubt.

Nix said, "'Devil in My Ear' is a song that came to me during a time when I was trying to figure out why somebody who was dear to me, and many others, would take their own life. Somebody who, even with superb talent, a loving family and good friends thought their life either wasn't worth living anymore, or they were experiencing a pain so severe internally that they could no longer live with it. This song is dedicated to the people who have had these thoughts and moments where they feel like their life doesn't matter enough to stick around. Please stick around. Somebody loves you. Those thoughts are lies and things will get better. God bless."

"Devil In My Ear" is the second song unveiled from The Red Clay Strays' upcoming disc, "Made by These Moments," out July 26 on RCA Records.

The Alabama band also released their new single, "Wanna Be Loved."

Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell) and recorded at Cobb's Georgia Mae in Savannah, "Made by These Moments" melds rock and roots sounds with southern soul.

The Red Clay Strays are Brandon Coleman (lead vocals, guitar), Drew Nix (electric guitar, vocals, harmonica), Zach Rishel (electric guitar), Andrew Bishop (bass) and John Hall (drums).
