And if he’s not actively crafting new music, he’s certainly thinking about it. “It’s a constant challenge to try to keep making better and better records, write better and better songs. I still always feel like I’m a developing artist,” he says. This may be a surprising sentiment from a man who’s won two Grammys, released 34 full-length albums, and taken home the Americana Music Association’s coveted Wagonmaster Award. But forthcoming album Game Changer is convincing evidence that the North Carolina native is only continuing to hone his craft. Operating under his own label, Sky Crunch Records, for the first time since 2016, Lauderdale recorded Game Changer at the renowned Blackbird Studios in Nashville, co-producing the release with Jay Weaver and pulling from songs he’d written over the last several years. “There’s a mixture on this record of uplifting songs and, at the same time, songs of heartbreak and despair—because that’s part of life as well,” he says. “In the country song world especially, that’s always been part of it. That’s real life.” Lauderdale would know: He’s been a vital part of the country music ecosystem since 1991, when he released his debut album and began penning songs for an impressively long roster of country music greats. “When I was a teenager wanting to be a bluegrass banjo player, I never would have imagined that I would get to work with people like Ralph Stanley and Robert Hunter and George Jones and Elvis Costello and John Oates,” he muses. “Getting to work with them inspires me greatly to this day, and I know it always will.” From rollicking guitar riffs on “That Kind of Life (That Kind of Day)” to the slow, sweet harmonies of “I’ll Keep My Heart Open For You,” Game Changer shows off Lauderdale’s ingenuity as a singer, songwriter, and producer—while reestablishing him as one of Americana’s most steadfast champions..” Artist Jim Lauderdale Genre Americana / Country Label Sky Crunch Records Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings That Kind Of Life (That Kind Of Day) Our Happy Hour We’re All We’ve Got Friends Again Let’s Make Some Memories Keep It Real I’ve Heard Of That Game Changer You’re Hoggin’ My Mind Wishbone Lightning Love I’ll Keep My Heart Open For You Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jim Lauderdale and more from Americana / Country View Product Quick View Jim Lauderdale Hope Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 1LP Released 30th July 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jim Lauderdale Hope £20.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: LPYEP3002 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th July 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jim Lauderdale When Carolina Comes Home Again Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 2LP Released 27th March 2020 £31.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jim Lauderdale When Carolina Comes Home Again £31.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: LPYEP2695XLE Formats: 2LP Released Date: 27th March 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jim Lauderdale Time Flies Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 3rd August 2018 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jim Lauderdale Time Flies £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: LPYEP2594 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 3rd August 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Laura Cortese & The Dance Cards California Calling Americana / Country | Compass | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 20th October 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Laura Cortese & The Dance Cards California Calling £19.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Compass SKU: COM46971 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 20th October 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Giant Sand Heartbreak Pass Americana / Country | Fire Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 21st October 2022 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Giant Sand Heartbreak Pass £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Fire Records SKU: FIRELP586 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 21st October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View William Elliott Whitmore Kilonova Americana / Country | Bloodshot | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 29th September 2018 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders William Elliott Whitmore Kilonova £17.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Bloodshot SKU: BS265LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 29th September 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Slaid Cleaves Ghost On The Car Radio Americana / Country | Candy House Media | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 20th June 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Slaid Cleaves Ghost On The Car Radio £19.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Candy House Media SKU: CHM132 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 20th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Johnny Cash Sun Studios Demo Recordings 1955/1956 Americana / Country | Mr Suit | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th December 2014 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Johnny Cash Sun Studios Demo Recordings 1955/1956 £17.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Mr Suit SKU: SUITABLE1330 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th December 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Willie Nelson God’s Problem Child Americana / Country | Sony Legacy | 1LP Released 24th April 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Willie Nelson God’s Problem Child £19.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Sony Legacy SKU: 88985415741 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th April 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Iron And Wine Archive Series Volume no. 5: Tallahassee Recordings Americana / Country | Sub Pop | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 7th May 2021 £20.00 -
