Acclaimed Oscar and Grammy-winning musician Ryan Bingham shares his new song, “Twist The Knife,” with The Texas Gentlemen today; listen/share HERE.The song is the second unveiled from Bingham’s highly anticipated new album, They Call Us The Lucky Ones, out May 15 via The Bingham Recording Co./Thirty Tigers (pre-order/pre-save HERE). His first full-length project in over seven years, the album further cements Bingham as one of the most
authentic and compelling voices in American music. Across the album’s 10 tracks, including previous releases “Ballad of The Texas Gentlemen,” “The Lucky Ones” and “Americana,” Bingham reflects on the highs and lows of an artist’s life on the road and his newfound sense of joy and hope, all framed by the unique genre-defying sound he and The Texas Gentlemen create together.
Already receiving critical attention, Bingham recently spoke with Rolling Stone, which calls the album “as complete a record as Bingham has ever recorded,” while All Country News declares, “he proves again why he’s one of country’s most raw and magnetic storytellers.”
“This album was probably the most fun I’ve had making a record,” Bingham reflects. “I’ve always loved records that feel loose and live and gritty with a bit of soul, where the imperfections from the moment are left in. Working with musicians as talented as The Texas Gentlemen really let us lean into that in a way I hadn’t experienced before. There was an unspoken understanding between us about what each song needed, so we tracked most of it live with minimal overdubs, just playing and letting the feel lead. It finally felt like I was capturing these songs the way I always heard them in my head. We can’t wait to get out on the road and share them with fans.”
In celebration of the new music, Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen will perform at Austin City Limits on April 21 before embarking on their extensive “Still Gettin’ Away With It Tour” this spring, including newly confirmed stops at New York’s Irving Plaza, Boston’s Roadrunner, Philadelphia’s The Fillmore, Washington D.C.’s Lincoln Theatre and Pittsburgh’s Stage AE among many others. See below for complete tour itinerary.
In addition to Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen—Ryan Ake (guitars), Daniel Creamer (piano, organ), Paul Grass (drums, percussion) and Scott Lee (bass)—the record also features Richard Bowden (fiddle, mandolin) and Cody Huggins (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, pedal steel).
They Call Us The Lucky Ones will be released on vinyl in multiple exclusive retail variants, including Classic Black, Indie Retail exclusive “Electric Smoke,” Barnes & Noble exclusive “Blue Sky,” Amazon exclusive “Vintage Bone” and the webstore-exclusive limited edition “Roadside Rust.” The album will also be available on CD and a nostalgia-inspired cassette, with all formats available for pre-order HERE.
Bingham is a Grammy, Oscar, Golden Globe, and Critics’ Choice Award-winning singer-songwriter and actor whose raw, world-weary voice and evocative storytelling have made him one of the most distinctive artists of his generation. From his early years as a drifter and bull rider to penning “The Weary Kind” for the film Crazy Heart, Bingham has built a career defined by authenticity and artistic independence. His music—spanning folk, blues, country, and rock—reflects a life fully lived, blending grit, vulnerability, and resilience in equal measure.
Across six studio albums, two live records, and his 2023 self-produced EP Watch Out For The Wolf, Bingham has remained committed to unfiltered, genre-defying storytelling, most recently captured in his live album Live at Red Rocks. In addition to his acclaimed music career, he starred as fan-favorite “Walker” on Paramount’s record-breaking series Yellowstone. Beyond the stage and screen, Bingham has launched his own record label, founded the Fort Worth-based festival and rodeo, The Great Western, and introduced Bingham Spirits, beginning with Bingham’s Bourbon in 2024.
