Great songwriter as usual. Interesting this isn't with the band. Thoughts from the crowd? I dig it.

Read that it was recorded before the band took their “hiatus”. Good song though

Is that true? I missed that. Sucks if true. They do make reference to Idaho, which Evan has been linked to during his absence.

I have seen nothing about him since the hiatus, and i’ve tried to find stuff every week or so.....been wondering what he’s been up to, hoping it was rehab

I dig it too. Hopefully he’s been getting right since the hiatus.

I read that it was recorded back in March. Hopefully his recovery is going well.

This was posted on reddit. Take it for what it's worth.

I am hesitant to even post anything, especially with how vague I’m going to be about the details out of respect for the source, but I heard word today that Evan is doing great! I very randomly bumped into someone very well acquainted with Evan today, went full fanboy on this person, and he said he spoke with Evan recently, and he is doing great. He’s hoping to get him back out on the road soon. Mostly posting so that perhaps anyone else with authority on the subject might confirm the details, but what was shared with me sounded pretty great! And again, forgive the ambiguity, but trust me, it’s legit. Very truly yours, Random person on the internet Edit: To clarify, (1) this wasn’t from anyone with Turnpike, (2) they didn’t say anything about Turnpike getting back together, just said he’s hoping to get Evan on the road again, (3) this is pure speculation, but the comment about getting him back on the road again didn’t feel like next week, or next month, but perhaps within a year? Here I am being all gossipy, but most of my friends aren’t fans, and I have to talk about this somewhere Edit 2: The source is a famous musician, and the connection I mentioned to him was that I traveled across the country to attend a concert where they were both playing.

I don’t know if he ever comes back.

I was glad to see something released by him earlier this week, but I thought the single was pretty average compared to the other songs he's related to.

On the positive side, hopefully this is a good sign that he is close to coming back.

Most positive thing I've seen is that his wife/ex/whatever posted about the new song. Per Reddit (who knows) they're back together to some extent.

I can only assume that'll be better for him in the long run. May have already been back with her at time of the break up but stands to reason she'd be a better stabilizing/healthy force than whatever was going on when the spiral began.

Miranda messed up his head. She also likes to party and wasn’t a good influence on him.

though this new song from Evan Felker was written and recorded in April of 2019 before the hiatus was in full force, and it doesn’t include the Turnpike Troubadours behind him, it feels so good to hear that voice again, no matter the situation, and no matter what is being sung.
