Jonathan Terrell has always chased horizons—whether strumming under the wide Texas sky or testing the limits of lonely, dust-blown soundscapes. But with his new single “MONA,” out May 27 on all platforms, he’s left the familiar behind and set his sights on a whole new kind of frontier: the western desert disco of your dreams. The track is an ode to his beloved, Detroit-built 1979 Ford Ranchero—nicknamed Mona—a chrome-lined time capsule that carries him from sun-baked highways into neon-lit nightclubs.

After scrapping more than half the record due to the sudden death of his Marine veteran brother, Jonathan Terrell perfects and comes out swinging on third LP, Westward. “The album I wanted to make”. Austin, TX elite musicians Shakey Graves, Mark Wystrach (Midland) David Ramirez and Gregg Rolie (Santana/ Journey) members of Black Pumas and Band of Heathens all contribute alongside Terrell's eversteady road band.
