Out of The Woods

After enduring a prolonged songwriting drought, Tipton found solace in the music of his upbringing—Asleep At The Wheel, Bob Wills & The Texas Playboys, Ernest Tubb, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and George Jones. This rediscovery sparked a creative surge, resulting in a collection of heartfelt songs. Scheduled for release in the fall of 2023, "Out of The Woods" captures Tipton's revival and showcases his storytelling. As Tipton explains, it's the most personal and coherent set of songs he's written to date.

"The title 'Out of the Woods,' has a double meaning for me. It's both a recurring theme for the lyrics and it speaks to an acoustic-heavy instrumentation, which is the literal meaning because the music is coming out of the woods." Tipton pulled in long-time collaborators and newfound friends from the KC music scene to help him bring his album to life. This is Tipton's first album under his name, even though he has released 7 albums and 6 EPs over the years. It is scheduled for release Friday, October 13, 2023.
