About BILLY STRINGS:

Michigan-born and now Nashville-based, Billy Strings is a GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician, who arrived on the scene as “one of string music’s most dynamic young stars” (Rolling Stone). Strings is in the midst of a triumphant year after winning Best Bluegrass Album at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards for his critically acclaimed record, Home. Produced by Glenn Brown, the record also led Strings to top Billboard’s 2020 year-end charts in both Bluegrass categories—Top Bluegrass Artists and Top Bluegrass Albums—and continues to receive widespread critical acclaim. Of the release, The Associated Press proclaims, “it is his creative musical storytelling, paired with solid vocals on Home that should seal the deal, pleasing fans of the genre and creating some new ones…the perfect blend of pure talent and pluck,” while The Wall Street Journal declares, “Billy Strings has clearly emerged as a premier guitar flatpicker of this era.” Since his debut, Strings has been awarded Guitar Player of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the 2019 International Bluegrass Music Awards, selected as one of Rolling Stone’s “New Country Artists to Know” and performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and PBS’ “Bluegrass Underground.” Known for his electric live shows, Strings will continue his extensive headline tour throughout 2021 including upcoming shows in Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, Austin, Atlanta and Nashville among several others.

Out September 24 via Rounder Records (pre-order here), Renewal was produced by Jonathan Wilson (Conor Oberst, Roger Waters, Father John Misty) and solidifies Strings’ position as a singular artist—one who honors the history of the music that inspires him, while continually pushing it forward. With the record’s sixteen tracks, Strings shares a more personal and honest perspective through his songwriting, while incorporating his wide range of influences with elements of bluegrass, classic rock, metal, psychedelic music and more.

LYRICS

(APOSTOL / HOFFMAN)

So in the morning when I see her in the light

She comes through to me in any kind of weather

And I know I'll never see a brighter day

When she smiles with her eyes

And even with a clouded heart chocked full of doubt

She can sing away the worry of rejection

She’s a wonder to behold

I'll love her till I'm growing old and that’s the plan

But if I could find more, that’s worthy

I surrender it all

I’m not sure that I deserve the love that I receive

But I give it all to her

Captivating when she moves across the floor

I remembered what it is I came here for

And it seems so easy now

I can’t believe it but somehow I’ve made her mine

Every now and then the past will ring a bell

But I’m not looking back I'm only moving forward

If I knew then what I know now I wouldn't be

here anyhow and it’s been clear

But if I could find more, that’s worthy

I surrender it all

I’m not sure that I deserve the love that I receive

But I give it all to her

So if I come to some conclusion by tonight

I'll be free from all the sorrow I've been drinking

I swear I'll never let her down

I couldn't bare to hear the sound of her steps leaving

And in the evening when the sun is running low

I’ll walk bravely through the fields of burning ember

and I’ll remember everything she said to me when

our love was first in bloom

But if I could find more, that’s worthy

I surrender it all

All the praise that I could earn

Means nothing without hers

I’m not sure that I deserve all the love that I receive

But I give it all to her
