Additionally, the official music video for "All For Winds," a song from Nelson's acclaimed new album, Sticks and Stones, is debuting today. Lovingly created by his brother, Micah Nelson, the video is filled with illustrations that pay tribute to the beauty and nature of Maui, where
Nelson spends much of his time.
Self-produced by
Nelson and POTR, Sticks and Stones was released last month on 6ACE Records/Thirty Tigers and is currently top 5 on the Americana Albums charts.
With the record,
Nelson continues to garner success at radio as his single, "Sticks and Stones," is currently #1 on the Alt Country chart and top 10 on the Americana Singles chart. This follows Nelson's previous single, "
More Than Friends" featuring Lainey Wilson, which reached #1 on the Americana Singles chart earlier this summer.
Written solely by Nelson, Sticks and Stones is filled with upbeat energy and a sense of fun, as he explores the universal human experiences of love, celebration, longing and humor, while also capturing the musical power and electricity of the band's live performances.
Of the record,
Nelson reflects, "This album is about celebrating the human connection, joy and excitement. We went from quiet and introspective on A Few Stars Apart to something big and fun to really showcase the band's talent and performance. You can listen to the album Sticks and Stones from start to finish and get the songs to dance to and then the quiet, poignant songs. To me, this album is the perfect setlist."
Since his debut over a decade ago,
Texas and Hawaii-based
Nelson has played countless sold-out shows and festivals and released seven studio albums to date including the latest, 2021's A Few Stars Apart. Produced by Dave Cobb, the record spent seven weeks at #1 on the Americana Albums chart and received widespread acclaim with Rolling Stone declaring, "His best album yet…Nelson's most compact, streamlined, and focused album," while The Tennessean asserted, "a collection of lyrically stirring, musically multifarious and ultimately hopeful roots rock storytelling."
Additionally,
Nelson co-produced the music for 2018's lauded A Star Is Born film in addition to appearing in the film and went on to win a BAFTA Award for Best Original
Music and a GRAMMY Award for Best Compilation
Soundtrack for Visual Media.
