Brantley Gilbert Gives An Update On His Next Album

Brantley Gilbert started writing songs for his next album as soon as he released The Devil Don’t Sleep.  Even though he’s started to ramp up the process even more, he can’t really offer fans an exact timeline of when it will be out yet because he says, “Around the time you really–the conversations about the new record start, you get in and you really zero in on what you got and how well it tells a story, and you start trying to beat the songs that you got. If you can have a better one, that better tells the story, then more power to it. But when it gets into the last part of my writing phase I’ll go back and everything I’m looking at that’s on the finals list, I’ll go back through it and make sure there’s not a hole somewhere that there could be a better word, or a better line, or a better rhyme. And then it’s off to the races.”

It’s been about a year and a half since Brantley released The Devil Don’t Sleep and he says, “At this point it’s hard to tell people when something’s going to come out or when you’re going to start recording cause you never know, it could happen really fast, and then again, we could get stuck on something you just never know.  But the conversations are happening and we’re putting a lot more pen to paper and spitting out a lot of songs, so we’ll see what happens.”

Fans can catch Brantley out on the road all summer long at various festivals and on The Devil Don’t Sleep Tour.
