Platinum pop singer-songwriter Jake Scott has released Live 2022, his new album recorded during the “Lavender” fall headline tour last year. The effort captures Scott’s high-energy, engaging performances and deeply authentic, heartfelt songwriting that has resonated with audiences nationwide. Watch the music video now!

“All The Money In The World” was written by Holcomb and Dave Barnes (Carrie Underwood, Marren Morris, Blake Shelton). The new album was recorded in Asheville, NC at Echo Mountain Studios with Cason Cooley (Ben Rector, Ingrid Michaelson) producing and is the band’s ninth.

Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors release “Find Your People.' A joyful rallying cry, the single is the latest from the band’s forthcoming new studio album Strangers No More. “Find Your People” comes with the official music video, follows last month’s finger-picked folk song “Fly,' and is the fourth to be released ahead of the Strangers No More LP.

The video for 'can't lose you now,' directed by David OD, is just as trippy and addictive as the song itself, with images giving way the pulsing beat of the song, pushed forward as she sings, 'already lost you once, can't lose you now,' complete with a subtle tinge of grunge on the surface, deeply-felt in spirit. 

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).
