Feeling impassionate, Houser opted to slow things down and set up camp in his good buddy and co-producer Gattis' studio in East Nashville to recalibrate and rediscover his passion for creating music.
Houser spent nearly two years fully invested in his songwriting which resulted in Magnolia and a new sound that is un-polished yet authentically Houser.
NPR Music praised Magnolia, stating: "Houser imagines and inhabits a blue-collar, tortured soul character with some of the most expressive performances of his career."
"Magnolia has been my beacon of light and restored my spirit and my truth," Houser said. "It's also the most daring and honest piece of work I've made in my life."Houser's fingerprints can be found on every inch of the project, having co-written every song on the album (and playing lead guitar on many of the songs).
The album title is a nod to Houser's roots growing up in "The Magnolia State" which was a large influence on the homegrown, organic sound showcased throughout the record-in addition to his new season of life.
Despite the many changes, Randy's thick, commanding vocals (that earned him four #1 hits, a slew of award nominations and critical acclaim), remain constant.
The album is available for pre-order now HERE.
