At a time when pandemic albums are popping up left and right, Boland zigged when everyone else zagged. In early 2021, the time felt right to get the project rolling again. However, that session took place a day before the lockdown and put the kibosh on the project for a year. Strumming through the material with the Stragglers at a rehearsal in Colorado, Boland knew he had something big. The groundwork he laid in 2019 saw the singer-songwriter roll through songs that would be a bold step forward. Prior to the pandemic, Boland was hard at work on his most ambitious project yet. Add to that the legions of musicians who are influenced by Boland, and his impact on the scene is undeniable. From his early days touring in cramped vans and playing in front of tiny bar crowds to the packed venues he performs in today, Boland’s uncompromising approach has grown his profile dramatically, especially in the past handful of years. Millions of fans cheering him on, over 500,000 records sold independently and 10 albums later, Boland is a career musician whose legacy continues to grow.

For the past 20 years, Jason Boland & the Stragglers have dazzled audiences all over as one of the leading ambassadors of the Oklahoma and Texas music movement.
