Renowned Texas folk artist James McMurtry returns with The Black Dog And The Wandering Boy, his fourteenth studio album and first new release since 2021's The Horse And The Hounds. This latest collection showcases McMurtry's extensive songwriting talents across deeply personal material, including the standout title track which references an old drawing by a friend of his father and explores themes of family and memory through the lens of his father's dementia.
The album features compelling collaborations, including supporting vocals from celebrated Texan singer-songwriter Sarah Jarosz on "Annie," a powerful mid-album track that examines the events and aftermath of 9/11. This indie exclusive khaki gray vinyl pressing is limited to just 1000 autographed copies, making it a must-have collectible for fans of McMurtry's acclaimed catalog of American roots music.
