Eleven years ago, recording artist and platinum-selling songwriter, composer, record producer, and multi-instrumentalist Coyle Girelli collaborated with Grammy-winning songwriter, artist, and actor Mac Davis on a potential duets album. Davis died in 2020, and the album stayed unfinished until now.
On August 29th, Sun Records will release this achingly beautiful album, Out of This Town. An unlikely partnership, a multi-generational collaboration, and a bag of lost, unfinished songs bring this one-of-a-kind album by Coyle Girelli to life. The 12-track collection’s first single, “Pretty,” is out today, and the preorder is live now. Out of This Town will be available on vinyl, CD, and via all streaming services.
