With a career spanning over six decades, Del McCoury continues defying expectations delivering fresh, thoughtful bluegrass with every release. Today, the Del McCoury Band returns with “So Black and White,” a new single written by celebrated guitarist and songwriter, and longtime Del McCoury collaborator, Larry Keel. The song can be heard and downloaded here

Leaning into moody lyricism and rich harmony, “So Black and White” is a battle between the complexities of passion and perception, exploring a push and pull between want and honesty in this moment that soon expires. 

“We’re living in color… it’s so black and white,” sings Del, capturing tension with clarity.

Tying into the overall theme, is a classically designed, tap-along black and white lyric video, available now on Del McCoury Band’s YouTube. https://youtu.be/a3OM0vYPSkw?si=GqXuOVYj_StxnRrC

“I could feel something in this song of Larry’s right away and when I saw, like chasing down a thought you couldn’t quite put your finger on. And after all these years, I still get excited to do something that sounds fresh, it just fits what we do.”

“So Black and White” is currently available exclusively for download and on digital streaming platforms.
