"You grow wiser with age, you grow wiser while you're working and experiencing life, and I feel like I have a deeper understanding of what my music really is. We're moving into the neon era of country music. The pendulum is swinging, and you're watching it happen… Now I just hope people get their mind blown." — Randall King In the few short years since he arrived in Nashville, Randall King has made no bones about his honky-tonk allegiance. In fact, he's worn it like a badge of honor, growing with pride into a leading voice for today's traditional country. But if anyone thought he was stuck in the past, his new album proves otherwise. A West Texas native and self-described "old soul," the Warner Music Nashville star has never wavered in his country-to-the-core style. Amassing over 270 Million streams on a series of singles like "You In A Honky Tonk," "Hey Cowgirl" and "Mirror, Mirror," he's kept the twang alive in country's mainstream while also earning acclaim through deeply personal EPs like Leanna, and flexing his creative muscle with the 2022 concept album, Shot Glass – all while playing nearly 150 shows a year, honing his craft where it matters most. But with his sophomore major-label album, Into the Neon, his musical mix of timeless-and-trendsetting reaches fresh heights. With this one, he's taking honky tonk somewhere new – a place where "steel guitar and smoke" meet a modern buzz. "There's a side of me that has not been captured yet," King says, flashing a playful      grin and his matter-of-fact confidence. "One that's still honky tonk and country, but it's got an edge to it. That's where we got to on this one." For a guy known for sticking close to stylistic ground, that's an intriguing statement, but one that's not actually so tough to believe. Raised in Hereford, West Texas, not far from the New Mexico line, King grew up on a steady diet of country greats, from Keith Whitley and George Strait to Alan Jackson and John Anderson. Singing in the back of a '93 Chevy as it criss-crossed county roads and tractor paths alike, it was there that his love of the classics took shape – and where he would begin to develop his signature baritone, a rumbling vocal capable of both booming like thunder across the plains, or whispering with the midnight wind. Over time, he used that timeless vocal to build a rep all across Texas and beyond, embracing a road-warrior lifestyle and never waiting on permission to explore his creative vision. Working independently, King produced and released the defiant 2016 EP, Another Bullet, boldly going against the mainstream grain to proclaim honky tonk would not go down … at least, not without a fight. With fans flocking to his electrifying live shows – each one a harrowing mix of rowdy roughnecking, romantic tenderness and breathtaking emotion – he then followed up with a 2018 self-titled album, and hit Music Row with an all-or-nothing honky-tonk mandate. Shot Glass – his full length major label debut – landed on both Whiskey Riff's Top 40 Country Albums of 2022 and Billboard's All Genre 50 Best Albums of 2022 (So Far), and along with his never-ending tours of the U.S., King even took the pure-country gospel overseas, headlining and selling out venues in Europe and the U.K. in 2023 while being named a Country Artist to Watch by everyone from Pandora and Country Now to Music Mayhem Magazine. But despite his hand-crafted status as an old-school troubadour (with a new-school fire), it was actually a pair of modern masters who inspired King's early path, becoming the soundtrack to his coming of age. At 16, he "wore out Dierks Bentley's first three records," captivated by the unbridled energy and rootsy flair. King likewise calls Gary Allan's Smoke Rings In the Dark pivotal to the dusky emotion of his own sound, and with Into the Neon, 18 fresh songs build on those era-spanning touchstones like never before. Co-produced by King alongside Jared Conrad, King's neo-traditional ethos meets the blood-pumping rhythms and sharp, arena-sized grooves of Y2K-era country – plus a vocal that burns like a shot of straight tequila. Doubled electric guitars and heavy steel drive irresistible melodies forward, while an all-organic cast of add-ons like banjo, bouzouki and cello add depth to tender two-steppers and steel-toed boot stompers alike. All told, King grabs hold of something he's been chasing all along. "It's that smoky, edgy side of me that hasn't gotten to be shown off yet," he says. "That's what I've been looking for, and it's honestly the best singing I've done. I'm incredibly proud of the whole thing." Co-written by King with Ben Stennis and Matt Rogers, the title track "Into the Neon" buzzes like a sonic welcome sign. Vibey and slow burning, the song exudes desolate atmosphere, with a deep, musky vocal and lonesome, low-down twang welcoming a drifter "Into the Neon" of a modern-timeless ballad. With one foot in the a hazy ether of the past, and another firmly in the here and now, King says it hits close to home. "In the line of work I do, that's us 100 percent," King says. "Don't stick around too long. Don't stay on the same trail. Always thinking about riding off to the next town or next bar. Into the neon." All throughout, punchy sounds exist side-by-side with timeless swagger. Tracks like "Burns Like Her," for example, would feel at home on country radio – either today or in the early 2000s. With a smoldering foundation of classic passion, and King's voice set to an aching rumble, it also features a fuzzed out steel guitar, blurring the line between yesteryear and today. "Why would you not?" King says. "It's still me, it's still country as shit. It's just a little more rocking." Tunes like "When My Baby's In Boots" (Trannie Anderson, Michael Carter and Jordan Walker) feel like a long-lost jukebox anthem, pairing warm twang and a danceable rhythm with King's vocal at its flirtatious peak. "Hard to Humble" (Ben Hayslip, Corey Crowder and Chris LaCorte) matches a rolling banjo and rolling beat to a heart filled with smitten pride, as King plays a lucky guy who's out of his romantic league "by a country mile." Others like "Hang Of Hanging On" (Lee Brice, Brett Sheroky) offer up a Texas-style dancehall slow jam – complete with tender romantic strains and a swell of "seal-the-deal" sweetness – while "Coulda Been Love" (Jake Worthington, Roger Springer, Kim Penz) picks up the pace for a neo-honky-tonk anthem of missed opportunities – and with the fan favorite "I Don't Whiskey Anymore," King and co-writer Gordie Sampson serve up a reflective, caramel-voiced ballad of personal growth, as relevant now as ever. Meanwhile, standouts like "What Doesn't Kill You" double down on twang-rocking tailgate energy, and with the heartwarming "Right Things Right," King turns some simple advice into a swaying, windows-down mantra for a life well-lived. "One Night Dance" starts the project off with a lost-in-love collision of two hearts (and decades of country style), and while "But It Ain't" wraps a broken heart that refuses to heal in dark, dusky twang, "Tonk Til I Die" finds King renewing his forever-country vows – a barroom blaster which has never heard of "last call." But it's "I Could Be That Rain" that best displays King's new "edge" – and kicks off his neon chapter. An emotional flood pairing devotion and desperation with an easy groove, whisper-soft twang and drums meant to mimic the sound of rain on a tin roof, the track captures King's creative spirit in its full blaze of glory. Penned by Brian Fuller and Mason Thornley, it's a story of timeless heartache with all the elements of a country classic, plus the adventurous spirit of a modern hit – but it's not about living in the past. It's about keeping the good stuff alive in the present tense. To King's mind, that's where he was always headed. Bringing country music Into the Neon.

Billy Gardell currently stars in the CBS series Bob Hearts Abishola, from award-winning creator, executive producer and writer Chuck Lorre. Bob Hearts Abishola is a love story about a middle-aged compression sock businessman from Detroit who unexpectedly falls for his cardiac nurse, a Nigerian immigrant, while recovering from a heart attack and sets his sights on winning her over. Undaunted by Abishola's lack of initial interest or the vast differences in their backgrounds, Bob is determined to win Abishola's heart, in this comedic examination of immigrant life in America. Prior to BHA, Billy Gardell starred in the CBS hit television series, Mike & Molly as Officer Mike Biggs from 2010-2016. Mike & Molly continues to air in syndication to this day. In addition, he starred as Col. Tom Parker in the CMT series, Sun Records and has had a recurring role on another CBS hit series, Young Sheldon. In 2016 he received a daytime Emmy nomination as best gameshow host for Monopoly Millionaires Club. Before Mike & Molly, Gardell co-starred in the critically acclaimed television series Lucky. His other television credits include Yes Dear and Judging Amy, on the Network, My Name is Earl, The Practice, Monk and Gary the Rat. He made his major motion picture debut alongside Anthony Quinn and Sylvester Stallone in Avenging Angelo, and had a memorable scene with Billy Bob Thornton in the Cohen Brother's film Bad Santa. He also appeared in You, Me & Dupree. As a standup, Gardell took the long road to Hollywood, stopping at every small town lounge, military base and comedy club along the way. His comedy act took him to Los Angeles where his dedication to acting, along with touring as a stand-up comedian, allowed him to grow consistently in both arenas. His stand-up show is a powerhouse. His grounded, down-to-earth point of view strikes a strong chord with American audiences. Stories about his rough childhood, wild adolescence and new family life are executed with the skill of a master craftsman. As a standup comic, his comedy specials, Billy Gardell: Halftime, premiered on Comedy Central and Billy Gardell Presents Road Dogs premiered on Showtime. A native of Pittsburgh who currently lives in Los Angeles, Gardell loves Steeler football, stand-up comedy and his wife Patty, and son Will.

May, 1979. It's an ordinary Thursday evening, which means it's time for Top of the Pops. Amidst a zeitgeist of punk and disco, the show suddenly appears to be interrupted by a transmission from the future. A luminous synth riff echoes out, a beat drives on and up steps an otherworldly figure - part robot, part alien - to deliver an enigmatic lyric depicting some kind of android existence in a dystopian future. It's Gary Numan fronting Tubeway Army for their breakthrough hit 'Are 'Friends' Electric?'. Of the millions that are watching, few would've recognised that this moment foreshadows the shape of music to come, from synth-pop to industrial and alt-pop. That, however, can't stop it igniting the imagination of an audience that would swell into a devoted following. Fast-forward to January, 2021. Numan's first single 'Intruder' (from the Intruder album) pulsates ominously as if it's soundtracking an imminent threat. As austere synths loom like shadows and industrial beats are detonated, the beguiling hook towers like a beacon in the darkness. It's visionary and venomous, with a narrative that imagines the Earth growing angry at mankind's actions, and more than willing to fight back. In the accompanying video, Numan looks even more out of time than he did back in 1979, like an intergalactic refugee fighting for his own existence. Those two songs show how Numan has consistently fought against the grain to stick resolutely to his creative vision. In a career that spans over forty years, the music evolves and the themes change. But fans remain fascinated by Numan for the very fact that he's so uncompromising. Any story charting four decades will be a mixed blessing of momentous highs and meagre lows. The achievements are remarkable for someone who never made any concessions to mainstream success. Seven Top 10 singles, including 'Are 'Friends' Electric?' and the debut solo hit 'Cars'; eight Top 10 albums, three of which topped the charts; and huge critical acclaim, most notably with the Inspiration Award at the prestigious Ivor Novellos. Naturally, there were times when Numan was very much not in vogue. Sure, there would be ripples of rediscovery but there were years when his increasingly conceptual albums were primarily embraced by hardcore fans. He wasn't troubling the charts, but audiences were still flocking to see him perform - almost every UK tour would include a sold-out show at the 5000 capacity Hammersmith Apollo. Gradually, though, praise from Nine Inch Nails, Prince and David Bowie led to a reappraisal of his work. And that has been magnified in recent years with Kanye West, Lady Gaga and Dave Grohl citing him as an influence. And so, a new narrative emerged. An unlikely icon returned to the top while making music that was darker, fiercer and more inventive than ever. 'Splinter (Songs From A Broken Mind)' set the ball rolling by peaking at #20 in 2013, its precise, post-industrial sound delving into Numan's experiences with depression. He started a new deal with BMG in 2017 and released 'Savage (Songs From A Broken World)', an album which depicted earth as a barren wasteland in which humanity and culture had been largely crushed by the effects of global warming. 'Savage' hit #2 in the UK charts. His next album, 'Intruder', presented a fresh but complementary narrative. It's a philosophical examination of a potential future apocalypse: the planet can only survive by purging its inhabitants. 'Intruder' also hit #2 in the UK charts. Numan explained: "'Intruder' looks at climate change from the planet's point of view. If the Earth could speak, and feel things the way we do, what would it say? How would it feel? The songs, for the most part, attempt to be that voice, or at least try to express what I believe the earth must feel at the moment". The planet sees us as its children now grown into callous selfishness, with a total disregard for its well being. It feels betrayed, hurt and ravaged. Disillusioned and heartbroken it is now fighting back. Essentially, it considers human kind to be a mistake, a virus attacking the planet. Climate change is the undeniable sign of the Earth saying enough is enough, and finally doing what it needs to do to get rid of us, and explaining why it feels it has to do it." Partially written and recorded during lockdown, it's no surprise that current circumstances have been assimilated into its themes. It's especially evident in 'The Gift', which evolves from a sparse introduction into a resonant Middle-Eastern sonic motif. It imagines Covid-19 as the first weapon that the planet deploys in order to eradicate mankind and once again flourish. While anger and vengeance rage in its opening chapters, 'Intruder' charts a wider spectrum of emotions. 'Is This World Not Enough' and 'A Black Sun' exude regret and then despair that this fate could've been avoided. The finale presents a black-hearted double-bill to bring the curtain down on the tale. First 'Now And Forever' offers a hope of eternity in the end days during its theatrical intensity, before the sparse, sorrowful 'The End Of Dragons' ends on the chilling reminder that what's broken can't always be fixed. Collectively the album proves that Numan's creative spark shows no sign of being extinguished. Numan toured the Intruder album at over 130 shows around the world, finally ending in mid 2024 when he toured the US with Ministry. Since then he's been back in the studio writing and recording his next (and 23rd) album, due out in early 2026. This one looks at a near future world where humanity lives or dies based on the whims of an AI controlled system. He did take a few weeks out of the studio to play a major UK tour in the Fall to celebrate the 45th Anniversary of his 'Replicas' and 'The Pleasure Principle' albums, both UK Number 1's when first released. That's just a snapshot of the tale behind one of music's most singular talents. The full story can be found in Numan's critically acclaimed autobiography '(R)evolution', which The Observer described as an, "exhaustive, entertaining and often poignant life story." What comes next will surely be just as intriguing.
