AT ANY GIVEN TIME, YOU’RE LIKELY TO FIND JIM LAUDERDALE MAKING MUSIC, WHETHER HE’S LAYING DOWN A NEW TRACK IN THE STUDIO OR WORKING THROUGH A SPONTANEOUS MELODY AT HIS HOME IN NASHVILLE. AND IF HE’S NOT ACTIVELY CRAFTING NEW MUSIC, HE’S CERTAINLY THINKING ABOUT IT. “IT'S A CONSTANT CHALLENGE TO TRY TO KEEP MAKING BETTER AND BETTER RECORDS, WRITE BETTER AND BETTER SONGS. I STILL ALWAYS FEEL LIKE I'M A DEVELOPING ARTIST,” HE SAYS. THIS MAY BE A SURPRISING SENTIMENT FROM A MAN WHO’S WON TWO GRAMMYS, RELEASED 34 FULL-LENGTH ALBUMS, AND TAKEN HOME THE AMERICANA MUSIC ASSOCIATION’S COVETED WAGONMASTER AWARD. BUT FORTHCOMING ALBUM GAME CHANGER IS CONVINCING EVIDENCE THAT THE NORTH CAROLINA NATIVE IS ONLY CONTINUING TO HONE HIS CRAFT.
OPERATING UNDER HIS OWN LABEL, SKY CRUNCH RECORDS, FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2016, LAUDERDALE RECORDED GAME CHANGER AT THE RENOWNED BLACKBIRD STUDIOS IN NASHVILLE, CO-PRODUCING THE RELEASE WITH JAY WEAVER AND PULLING FROM SONGS HE’D WRITTEN OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. “THERE'S A MIXTURE ON THIS RECORD OF UPLIFTING SONGS AND, AT THE SAME TIME, SONGS OF HEARTBREAK AND DESPAIR—BECAUSE THAT'S PART OF LIFE AS WELL,” HE SAYS. “IN THE COUNTRY SONG WORLD ESPECIALLY, THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN PART OF IT. THAT’S REAL LIFE.”
LAUDERDALE WOULD KNOW: HE’S BEEN A VITAL PART OF THE COUNTRY MUSIC ECOSYSTEM SINCE 1991, WHEN HE RELEASED HIS DEBUT ALBUM AND BEGAN PENNING SONGS FOR AN IMPRESSIVELY LONG ROSTER OF COUNTRY MUSIC GREATS. “WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER WANTING TO BE A BLUEGRASS BANJO PLAYER, I NEVER WOULD HAVE IMAGINED THAT I WOULD GET TO WORK WITH PEOPLE LIKE RALPH STANLEY, ROBERT HUNTER, LORETTA LYNN, GEORGE JONES, EMMYLOU HARRIS, ELVIS COSTELLO, LUCINDA WILLIAMS AND JOHN OATES ,” HE MUSES. “GETTING TO WORK WITH THEM INSPIRES ME GREATLY TO THIS DAY, AND I KNOW IT ALWAYS WILL.” ,” HE MUSES. “GETTING TO WORK WITH THEM INSPIRES ME GREATLY TO THIS DAY, AND I KNOW IT ALWAYS WILL.”
FROM ROLLICKING GUITAR RIFFS ON “THAT KIND OF LIFE (THAT KIND OF DAY)” TO THE SLOW, SWEET HARMONIES OF “I’LL KEEP MY HEART OPEN FOR YOU,” GAME CHANGER SHOWS OFF LAUDERDALE’S INGENUITY AS A SINGER, SONGWRITER, AND PRODUCER—WHILE REESTABLISHING HIM AS ONE OF AMERICANA’S MOST STEADFAST CHAMPIONS. "COUNTRY MUSIC IS CONSTANTLY EVOLVING, BUT I'LL ALWAYS HAVE A SOFT SPOT IN MY HEART FOR STEEL GUITAR AND A TELECASTER," HE SAYS. "I HAVE DONE MY JOB ON THIS RECORD IF PEOPLE WHO LOVE CLASSIC COUNTRY FEEL LIKE THEY CAN PUT IT ON, OR HAVE IT IN THEIR COLLECTION, AND IT WOULD FIT RIGHT IN."
