Spencer Burton has announced the release date of his eighth studio album, and the debut of the album’s first single, “Broken Hearts and Broken Chains.”Songs Of is due out on May 5th on Dine Alone Records. “Broken Hearts and Broken Chains” is now available to purchase as well as pre-order the new album through iTunes and Dine Alone Records. Burton explains where the idea for the track came from; “I had a young lady come to me and pour her heart out with a whole lot of ‘I’ve got nothing’ I’ve heard the story before, I’ve lived the story. I lived the story until I realized that I had everything I need and so does most everyone else. Sometimes it takes losing everything to realize you have everything – ‘Broken Hearts and Broken Chains’ are sometimes one in the same.”
Songs Of was recorded in Nashville, TN and it was produced by Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Langhorne Slim). The album features a string of talented musicians including members of Margo Price’s band. The album promises to cover an array of topics, consistent with Burton’s previous works. “Every song on this record is for someone else. Every song on this record is a gift to someone else. I wrote these songs for me, of course, but for the first time I wrote these songs about other people in my life, some of them for other people to help them through hard times.” mentions Burton.

Music has touched my soul since day one. Whether it is performing or sitting down with some of the biggest names in music, I can always be found sharing my profoundly tender affection of music with anyone who will listen. Being a music journalist has allowed me to expand my knowledge of music and interact with some of my biggest childhood heroes. From days of radio broadcasting to sitting back, kicking off my cowboy boots and sharing my adventures with likeminded music fans online has been nothing short of amazing. Canada is full of true musical talent and I look forward to continuing to share my adventures in music with you.
