Billy Blue Records signs Adam McIntosh, an extraordinary addition to their talented artist roster. Starting his music career at an early age, McIntosh continues to follow his passion by creating music that touches his listeners by inspiring joy and comforting those who may be hurting. Billy Blue Records will release McIntosh’s debut single “Baby, You Ain’t Baby Anymore” on October 13th, with an album release Restless to follow in early 2024.
McIntosh stated, “What a blessing! I am thrilled to announce my upcoming albumRestless on Billy Blue Records! This record has been a long time in the making. I was only 18 years old when I started playing bluegrass music on the road with Dry Branch Fire Squad and knew even then that I wanted to record a project like this one day.”
He added, “The Covid pandemic gave me a new perspective, and that year I redoubled my efforts and finished my bachelor’s degree. I took time to reflect on what I wanted to do musically and decided it was time to buckle down and really work on this project. I collected songs from a few of my favorite writers as well as songs that speak to me that perhaps the general bluegrass audiences may have never heard. More than anything, I wanted to produce a collection that touches the listener. There are songs that make you tap your foot, some that make you sing along, and others that just might make you cry.”
“I am honored to be working with Billy Blue Records on this project. I was adopted into the Billy Blue Records family when I returned to Joe Mullins and the Radio Ramblers in 2019. I could tell right away that their dedication and professionalism was second to none. Thank you to Ed, Jerry, and Kyle for believing in me and encouraging me! I am thankful for the talents of some heroes and friends on this record as well, including Mike Rogers (percussion and vocals, Ron Stewart(banjo), Scott Vestal (banjo), Ned Luberecki (banjo), Jason Barie (fiddle), Mitch Meadors (mandolin), Evan Lanier (banjo), John Meador (vocals), Jesse Smathers (vocals), Dale Perry (vocals), Don Rigsby (vocals), and Angie McIntosh Young (vocals). It was an amazing experience making music with these extraordinarily talented individuals,” stated McIntosh.
