Jonathan Wilson will issue a deluxe edition of his 2020 studio album, Dixie Blur, digitally via BMG/Bella Union on October 30. The news of Dixie Blur: Deluxe Edition comes today with the release of the El Camino Real EP through digital services, which can be streamed below.

Dixie Blur: Digital Edition features the full album, which was released on March 6, as well as a series of five previously unreleased B-Sides and four acoustic performances of tracks from the LP. Wilson recorded Dixie Blur in Studio A at Nashville’s Sound Emporium facility with a band that included bassist Dennis Crouch, pedal steel wiz Russ Pahl, multi-instrumentalist Jim Hoke and fiddler Mark O’Connor. Jonathan tapped Patrick Sansone of Wilco to produce the 14-track album.
