About HOME:
Billy Strings has been hailed as the future of bluegrass, transcending tradition and genre with his high velocity, flat-picking guitar technique and intense, confessional songwriting. HOME, Strings’ remarkable second studio album, is undoubtedly the Michigan-born, Nashville-based artist’s bravest excursion thus far, completely rewiring bluegrass with elements of punk, country, folk rock, and genuine psychedelic exploration to fashion something altogether his own. Strings has infused the aesthetic with his own experiences and inspirations, adopting traditional sonic and lyrical idioms to confront contemporary social truths. With guest appearances from the likes of Jerry Douglas and Molly Tuttle and produced by Glenn Brown (Greensky Bluegrass, Marcus Miller), HOME marks a landmark on Billy Strings’ ongoing creative journey, its fearless songs and freewheeling approach recasting string-based American music in his own inimitable image.
"Freedom" Lyrics:
All white as snow and black as night
You know you can’t give up the fight
There with the stars up in the sky
The angel band sings by and by
I want to walk, I can’t sit down
I want the robe and I want the crown
Fear not the day when all is lost
This earthly wealth ain’t worth the cost
Shadows and lights in pairs that cling
Allow your soul the right to sing
All through the night the moon will shine
The whispers heard defeat the time
Allowed to be with feasting eyes
And life alone it is the prize
And all the things you thought you knew
Accuse the sky of being blue
Freedom
From these trials and this troubled world below
Freedom
From these trials and this troubled world below
