Exclusive: Luke Grimes Discusses New Music, Confirms Plans to “Get Back in the Studio Early Next Year”

It's safe to say that, in 2024, Luke Grimes has been a busy man.

Aside from shooting a new movie with Ari Aster, Eddington, and the last season of the hit neo-Western series, Yellowstone, Grimes somehow found the time to released his debut country album and embark on his first ever headlining tour across the US.

With filming now wrapped for both Eddington and Yellowstone Season Five Part Two, fans are inevitably curious as to when they can expect the multi-hyphenate's sophomore record.

Excitingly, in a new conversation with Holler, the ‘No Horse to Ride’ singer-songwriter has teased that it thankfully won't be too long before he adds to his burgeoning discography.

Luke Grimes shared, “I've been writing ever since we were done recording. You know, I'm kind of always thinking about the next one and ‘What do you want to say now?’ I've definitely been in that mode”.

He went on to reflect on the hectic twelve months he's experienced, which haven't left much room for co-writing link-ups and studio sessions, “I filmed a movie and a season of television this year, so it's been a busy year, and now the tour is coming up. It's just finding the time. But I don't think [new music] will be that far off. I think I'll probably get back in the studio early next year, and then hopefully get it out pretty quick”, before assuring fans, “I don't think it'll be too long at all”.

Since the arrival of Luke Grimes’ lauded 13-song record in March, he's been keeping fans satiated with a couple of live recordings taken from the Boston stop on his previous tour.

Grimes’ trademark rugged, intricate renditions of these tracks, ‘No Horse to Ride’ and a cover of Nirvana's ‘All Apologies’, have led to numerous fans calling for a full live project.

Luke Grimes confirms, “I'm sure we'll do a live album at some point. You know, when the time is right”, before adding with a modest chuckle, “I had my very first live show ever last year as a frontman, so I might wait a little bit before throwing a live album out there...!”

The new - and final - season of Yellowstone, starring Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser and more, is set to air on November 10th, 2024, with Grimes kicking off his Playin’ on the Tracks tour, featuring Carter Faith, the day before in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
