On July 9, Travis Tritt will release his first album in six years, entitled The Calm After… The album’s title reflects Tritt’s legal woes with his now defunct previous label. The project will release on the singer’s Post Oak Recordings.
“I feel so humbled and blessed to be where I am right now,” says Tritt. “My voice has never been stronger, I’m constantly playing and working to become a better guitar player, banjo player, vocalist and songwriter. I am honestly as excited about the creative process and performing now as I was the day I signed my first record deal.”
The album features a duet with Tritt’s 15-year-old daughter Tyler Reese on the single “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough,” a remake of the Patty Smyth and Don Henley song. Tritt’s daughter will join the singer at certain venues on his ongoing tour.
