Dwight Yoakam
Dwight Yoakam has joined the Warner Bros. Records/Reprise roster. The singer, songwriter, entertainer and actor released a cover of the Creedence Clearwater Revival classic “Who’ll Stop The Rain” on Monday (July 14). The track will be included on an upcoming project to be released later this year, which will mark Yoakam’s first album of original music since 2012’s 3 Pears (Warner Bros. Records).
Fans of the multi-talented Yoakam can also see him on the small screen tonight (July 14). He will make his first appearance in a multi-episode arc on CBS’ Under The Dome, portraying barbershop owner Lyle Chumley. He sings an a cappella verse of “Who’ll Stop The Rain” in tonight’s episode.
When he is not in the studio working on the new project, Yoakam will be on the road, joining the North American leg of Eric Church‘s The Outsiders World Tour, which launches Sept. 11 in Bossier City, La., and visits 32 arenas across the U.S. and Canada through December.
