Whiskey Myers – release new single ‘Tailspin’ & announce new album

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Acclaimed Southern rockers Whiskey Myers continue to turn up the heat with the release of ‘Tailspin’, the second track from their highly anticipated seventh album, Whomp Whack Thunder, due out on September 26 via the band’s own Wiggy Thump Records.
 
Following the adrenaline-fueled lead single ‘Time Bomb’, the multi-platinum independent band keeps the pedal down with ‘Tailspin’, a scorching track that captures the band’s signature swagger, blending gritty guitars, pounding rhythms and unflinching lyrics: “I was cruising for a little while, but now I’m in a tailspin / If I’m going out, I’m going out in style / I’m headed for the bottom again”.
 
Equal parts anthem and confession, ‘Tailspin’ delivers a raw portrayal of life in freefall – chasing relief, clinging to vices and hoping for a parachute on the way down. The track’s unfiltered energy and hard-driving instrumentation showcase Whiskey Myers at their most urgent and unapologetic, further previewing what fans can expect on the forthcoming album.
 
Born from the piney woods of East Texas and shaped in the soul of Nashville during an immersive three weeks with renowned producer Jay Joyce – known for bringing edge, atmosphere and unpredictability to every project (Eric Church, Cage the Elephant, Halestorm, Lainey Wilson) – Whomp Whack Thunder is a strong statement from the genre-defying six piece. 
 
“We didn’t set out to chase a specific sound – we set out to make a Whiskey Myers record,” shared lead guitarist John Jeffers when announcing the project. “Jay pulled something out of us that’s raw and real, and every track’s got a piece of our story in it. This album’s about where we’ve been, what we’ve lived and the scars we earned along the way – and I think Whomp Whack Thunder might just be our most fearless album yet.”
