With their upcoming sixth studio album, “What A Time To Be Alive”, The Lone Bellow embarks on a bold new chapter while honoring the deep bonds that have defined their journey. Written collaboratively for the first time with their full touring band—founding members Zach Williams, Brian Elmquist, and Kanene Pipkin joined by drummer Julian Dorio and multi-instrumentalist Tyler Geertsma—the album channels the raw, ecstatic energy of the band’s live show into a dynamic collection of songs that pulse with warmth, honesty, and human connection.

Recorded live in Muscle Shoals, AL, after a writing retreat in a converted Kentucky firehouse,the album is both a celebration and a reckoning: of friendship, loss, love, and resilience. From the gritty, Stones-tinged opener “After The Rain” to the soul-stirring closer “What A Time To Be Alive,” the record captures the joy and vulnerability that have long defined The Lone Bellow’s sound—lush harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and genre-blurring arrangements steeped in folk, rock,and gospel.

The album’s creation was marked by setbacks, including the theft of early recordings, but the outpouring of support from their fan base reaffirmed what the band has always known: their music is a shared experience. That spirit echoes throughout the album, whether in anthems like “Common Folk” and “I’m Here For You,” or in intimate reflections like “You Were Leaving” and“Night Goes Black.”

Since their acclaimed 2013 debut, The Lone Bellow has appeared on The Tonight Show, Austin City Limits, and The Late Show, topped Americana charts, and headlined storied venues from Carnegie Hall to the Ryman Auditorium. But with their next album, they reaffirm their commitment not just to making music, but to building community—on stage, in song, and around the table.

(opens in a new tab)(opens in a new tab)(opens in a new tab)​Originally from Birmingham, AL Walker is a singer songwriter based in Nashville, TN. He is a graduate of Belmont University with a degree in voice and an emphasis in songwriting. He as toured nationally with Bobby Bones as both his piano player and a featured artist as well as Kris Allen. Walker's music blends interesting melodies and chords with lyrics that reflect on the joy and the pain of connecting with ourselves, others and the world around us.

Walker Burroughs makes music steeped in a choice of joy and hope; a choice also found in works by artists like John Denver and J.R.R. Tolkien, who are among Walker’s greatest inspirations. The songs he writes are comprised of folky, wooden sounds, and they tell stories of life and love through a grounded connection to the natural world. If much of today’s live and recorded music is a machine-chiseled marble statue, cut with mathematical perfection to be stared at from behind a rope, then Walker’s music is an old tree. It took a while to grow, and it isn’t perfect. But it’s not trying to be. If you like thoughtful, soaring, and occasionally funny tunes, you have made it to the right place. Come sit under the shade of the leaves – you are welcome here.
