Charley Crockett revealed plans to issue a new album entitled Lonesome Drifter on March 14, which will mark his official debut on Island Records. Shooter Jennings co-produced the upcoming album whose title track will be released on Friday, January 31.

Capturing what was heralded as “the magic of performance on tape,” Crockett and Jennings held the sessions for Lonesome Drifter over 10 days. Recording live at the historic Sunset Sounds Studio in Los Angeles, the sessions yielded the 12 tracks making up the album.

“Shooter and I barely talked about it,” Crockett, who released two albums in 2024, said. “I just brought all of my guys out, and the album made itself. It was live without a lot of overdubs. There were no inhibitions. I wasn’t being judged, and I didn’t feel self-conscious. Shooter knew how to cut loose and let this thing unfold.”
