Josh Ritter Shares Angelic ‘Wild Ways’ Single

Josh Ritter released a new single, “Wild Ways.” The track is set for the singer-songwriter’s new album, I Believe in You, My Honeydew, due out on Friday (September 12) through Thirty Tigers.

I Believe in You, My Honeydew is Josh Ritter’s 13th album and follow-up to 2024’s Heaven, or Someplace as Nice. The singer-songwriter previously previewed the new record produced by Sam Kassirer (Lake Street Dive, Langhorne Slim) with the singles “You Won't Dig My Grave,” “Noah’s Children” and “Truth is a Dimension (Both Invisible and Blinding).”

Josh Ritter’s Royal City Band helped the musician cut the record including Kassirer on keyboards/accordion, Zachariah Hickman on bass/thumb piano/mandolin, Rich Hinman on guitar/pedal steel guitar/mandolin and Ray Rizzo on drums/percussion.

Josh Ritter detailed the latest I Believe in You, My Honeydew preview:

“‘Wild Ways’ is about surrendering to the better angels of our own natures, about allowing them to guide us through life through our experience of joy and awe. Perhaps those better angels are the ones around us we love, perhaps they are truly angels, circling the air about our heads. Either way, in welcoming them into our lives by surrendering, we can find ourselves in whole new worlds of wonder.”
