Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors Release New Single “Find Your People”

Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors release “Find Your People” – stream via your preferred DSP HERE. A joyful rallying cry, the single is the latest from the band’s forthcoming new studio album Strangers No More due out June 7th via Magnolia Music.

“Find Your People” comes with the official music video – watch HERE, follows last month’s finger-picked folk song “Fly” (watch video HERE), and is the fourth to be released ahead of the Strangers No More LP.

“Life is hard. It’s a lot harder when you go it alone. “Find Your People” is a folk anthem about how we need each other. Part of the river of this record is about how to navigate the chaos of economic uncertainty, family drama, political division, and the general untethering that so many of us feel. It’s about finding who you trust, who know you, who are there for you in times of trouble, who can call your bluff and tell you the truth, who will stand with you no matter what. I have been lucky enough to have a lot of those people in my life and I know I couldn’t live without them.” – Drew Holcomb on “Find Your People

Strangers No More is Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors ninth album and follows the band’s critically acclaimed 2019 LP Dragons. On the new album, Holcomb celebrates the sense of togetherness as he and his longtime bandmates – Nathan Dugger (guitar), Rich Brinsfield (bass), Will Sayles (drums), and Ian Miller (keys) – rejoice in one another’s presence after a long hiatus due to the pandemic. Strangers No More was recorded over eight inspired days in Asheville, NC at Echo Mountain Studios with Cason Cooley (Ben RectorIngrid Michaelson) producing. They focused on live-in-the-studio performances that showcased the band’s chemistry and camaraderie, capturing the bulk of each song — including vocals, instrumental textures, and solos — in real time. “We’d do eight to ten performances of a single song, looking for the revelatory moment,” Holcomb remembers. “The goal was to prove an expanded vision of who we are and what we do.”

In addition to releasing a new full-length studio album this year and making their return to Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, the band is celebrating the 10-Year Anniversary of one of their most beloved albums, 2013’s Good Light. The decade that followed saw Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors release five consecutive albums that peaked in the upper reaches of the Billboard charts. Also in that time period, Holcomb launched the incredibly popular Moon River Music Festival, an annual event that is heading into its eighth year (and fifth in Chattanooga, TN’s Coolidge Park) this coming September 9th and 10th. 2023’s lineup featuring HozierCaampNickel CreekFirst Aid KitMarcus King and more (see full lineup HERE) was announced last week and sold out in mere days!

Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors Celebrate Togetherness on New Full-Length Studio Album Strangers No More – out June 7th via Magnolia Music

Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors celebrate togetherness on their new full-length studio album Strangers No More – due out June 7th via Magnolia Records.

The new album was recorded in Asheville, NC at Echo Mountain Studios with producer Cason Cooley (Ben Rector, Ingrid Michaelson, American Authors) and Holcomb’s longtime bandmates Nathan Dugger (guitar), Rich Brinsfield (bass), Will Sayles (drums), and Ian Miller (keys).

Today’s news comes with the release of the album’s opening track “Fly” – a finger-picked folk song about the passage of time. It’s a gorgeous moment of reflection from a musician who’s learning to age gracefully, balancing the refined edge of his songwriting with a willingness to try new things.

Listen to the single HERE via your preferred DSP and watch the official music video HERE.

Strangers No More builds upon Holcomb’s spirit of collaboration that was sparked by 2019’s Dragons LP which featured co-writes with Lori McKennaThe Lone Bellow, and Natalie Hemby. For the new album Holcomb turned to several trusted and talented friends to write with including Hemby, Ketch Secor (Old Crow Medicine Show), K.S. Rhoads and Cooley.

Written on both sides of a global pandemic, it’s a record about the perspective of time, the rollercoaster of triumph and tragedy, and jubilation in the face of chaos. Holcomb and his longtime bandmates aren’t just reveling in one another’s presence after a long hiatus; they’re expanding their sound, too, finding room for timeless songwriting, modern-day Laurel Canyon folk, amplified Americana, and heartland rock & roll.

If Dragons was a rhapsody of life and family, then Strangers No More embraces a wider range of topics and textures. The songwriting is more introspective and universal this time around — “the kind of specific that applies to everyone,” Holcomb says — and the love songs that filled previous albums have been replaced by tunes that cover friendship, death, introspection, and Holcomb’s connection to his audience. “There’s a longer list of characters this time,” he adds.

Strangers No More offers an all-encompassing view not only of the places Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors have been, but where they’re headed next, too. From ageless folk music to atmospheric Americana to soulful rock & roll, the album marks an ambitious new chapter in the band’s story and is due out June 7th via Magnolia Music.

You can catch Holcomb on the road this month with his wife Ellie, dates and tickets HERE, and you can listen to “Fly” today via all DSPs HERE and watch the official music video HERE. Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors will be returning to Bonnaroo this year for a performance after the album drops and Holcomb cannot wait to share these songs live, so look for more tour dates this summer!

Download Mp3 : Mine – Ellie Holcomb Feat. Drew Holcomb

Ellie Holcomb releases a new song, “Mine,” from her forthcoming album, Canyon, which releases on June 25th. Along with this poignant song about a parent’s love and the reflection of God’s love for His children, a personal music video debuts today featuring Holcomb’s three children and husband. This is also the first song that her husband, Drew Holcomb (of Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors) has recorded for one of her albums.

“I wrote this song with Hank Bentley and Mia Fields after a conversation with them about how God is always with us and how the heart of a parent reflects; however imperfectly, the heart of the Father,” explains Ellie Holcomb. “He’s been with us the whole time before we ever took a breath. God is the perfect father, and when I fail as a parent this is such a sweet reminder for me, that God is still my father as I mother my children, and He’s still their perfect heavenly father, holding them and taking such good care of them, even when I parent imperfectly. This song is also special as my husband, Drew, joins me. He would tear up every time he heard this song, and it felt like the most natural thing to ask him to sing with me. His voice sounds incredible, and I hope this will forever be a treasure for our kids to hear both their mom and dad singing this over them.”

Previously released songs from the upcoming album include the title track, which already has more than 1.7 million global streams, and the radio single, “I Don’t Want To Miss It,” which was her largest career add date and has 30 stations already spinning the song with major markets like SiriusXM, St. Louis, Portland, Bakersfield, New Orleans, Greensboro, and Chattanooga.
