Well, here’s the thing. I made an album. I’ve never made a full length album before, but after several years of releasing EP’s and singles, I felt the natural next step was to take the time to create a more complete work that summarized a season of my life where I grew from a young man into a slightly less young man. In this period, I moved to Nashville, fell in love, got married, stopped believing in some things, started believing in other things, and began a career as an artist and songwriter. It’s been a wonderful journey and I wouldn’t change a minute of it. 

So I found the songs I had written that best represented my journey to this point, and asked my best friend, Will Mikkelson to help me make an album. We holed ourselves up for six months in his basement studio until we thought it was finished. Now, it comes out November 20th, 2020. 

I’m excited to let you know you can now pre-order the 12″ vinyl of my upcoming full-length, album, The Ride, starting today. If you pre-order by October 16, 2020 you’ll get my next single a week before anyone else on Oct 16th and the album a whole two weeks before anyone else on Nov 6th!

Pre-order The Ride on 140g, black, 12″ vinyl here: https://volunteersounds.square.site/product/the-ride-vinyl/3

The vinyl will be going into production soon and will be shipping in December to arrive in time for the Christmas holiday! So if you’re starting to think about holiday gifts you can definitely gift a Volunteer vinyl now!

If you pre-order by or before Oct 16th you’ll also be helping me front the costs of pressing vinyl (it’s not cheap!) so PLEASE tell your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors to take a listen and support independent artists like myself by buying from the artist (hello, it’s me) directly. Thanks for the support, can’t wait for you to hear this album in 140g, vinyl soon!

Love, Cory.
