Ryan Bingham has announced his new album They Call Us The Lucky Ones with The Texas Gentlemen arriving May 15th and released the song “Ballad of The Texas Gentlemen.”
To introduce the project, Bingham released a new track called “Ballad of The Texas Gentlemen.”
Bingham says the record came together naturally over time.
“After years of being out on my own and playing shows on and off with The Texas Gentlemen, I realized somewhere along the way I was part of a band again without really planning it. ‘Ballad of The Texas Gentlemen’ really came out of that moment – just being back out on the road with people you trust and remembering why you fell in love with playing music in the first place.”
The 10-song collection includes previously released tracks “The Lucky Ones” and “Americana” and reflects on life on the road, resilience, and the bond formed through years of playing together.
On the recording process, Bingham shared:
“This album was probably the most fun I’ve had making a record. I’ve always loved records that feel loose and live and gritty with a bit of soul, where the imperfections from the moment are left in. Working with musicians as talented as The Texas Gentlemen really let us lean into that in a way I hadn’t experienced before. There was an unspoken understanding between us about what each song needed, so we tracked most of it live with minimal overdubs, just playing and letting the feel lead. It finally felt like I was capturing these songs the way I always heard them in my head. We can’t wait to get out on the road and share them with fans.”
