A New Era for Alt-Country's Sturgill Simpson on Vinyl LP!

Rolling Stone 100 Best Albums of 2024 - Rated 24/100!
Consequence 50 Best Albums of 2024 - Rated 4/50!
Paste The 100 Best Albums of 2024 - Rated 5/100!

After promising to release only five studio albums under his own name, Sturgill Simpson marks the beginning of a new era with stage name Johnny Blue Skies and the release of debut album Passage Du Desir. Out on his own independent label, High Top Mountain Records, the album includes eight previously unreleased songs produced by Johnny Blue Skies and David Ferguson and recorded at Clement House Recording Studio in Nashville, TN and Abbey Road Studios in London, England.

...the remarkable thing about this 2024 album is that it in no way feels as if he's running away from his past. There's a cool breeze blowing through Passage du Desir, a mellowness that takes the edge off Simpson's musical wandering. Stylistically, he's as restless as ever, easing himself from plaintive country ballads to supple R&B, offering a blissed-out boogie on 'Scooter Blues,' and ending the whole affair with 'One for the Road,' a twilight farewell whose soulful slow burn concludes in Pink Floyd theatrics.
-Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AllMusic.com, 4.5/5 stars (The AllMusic 2024 Year in Review - Favorite Country Albums)
