Ernest Adds 13 Songs to Forthcoming Debut Album With Deluxe Edition, ‘Two Dozen Roses’
Ernest is more than doubling the amount of tracks on his debut album, Flower Shops (The Album), with a forthcoming a deluxe edition dubbed Two Dozen Roses.
Due Friday, Feb. 10., the project will add 13 brand new songs to his already 11-track-deep record, which will include the Platinum-selling title track featuring Morgan Wallen.
The singer co-wrote on all 13 new tracks, alone or with friends: Writing collaborations include Jordan Schmidt, Josh Thompson, Lady A's Charles Kelley, former Florida Georgia Line member Brian Kelley, Dean Dillon and more. The new batch features one duet with up-and-coming singer Jake Worthington. Ernest says the new songs continue the story of the original album.
"I can't wait for everyone to hear the new music," he shares in a press release. "It's even more of the real, honest storytelling that the album was built on, and continues the character's love story right where it left off with 'Some Other Bar.' It's very reflective, I think everyone will be able to relate to a part of the story in some way. I'm really proud of it!"
Ernest is giving fans a taste of the new collection of songs with the release of "Miss That Girl," "Unhang the Moon" and "Song We Used to Sing," out now. He has also shared a music video for "Miss That Girl," which was directed by Justin Clough and conceptualized by Ernest's wife, Delaney Royer. The album is available for pre-order here.
