3x Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Billy Strings shares his new song, “10,000 Miles From a Friend,” out now. Watch the official music video below.
The song is the latest unveiled from Strings’ highly anticipated new album, So Much for Goodbyes, out next Friday, August 28 via Reprise Records. Pre-order/pre-save HERE. Produced by Strings and T Bone Burnett, the 16-track project finds Strings channeling a deeply personal period into his most musically mature and reflective body of work to date. The record is accompanied by original artwork created by Strings’ late mother, Debra Apostol.
Additionally, Strings shared album tracks “Mill Town Flood” and “Burn the Other End” earlier this summer.
“I made this record to honor my mother,” Strings shares. “To notice and embrace this very significant period of grief in my life and make art from it. To turn my heartbreak into songs while using my guitar as a coping mechanism as I always have. It’s always been there for me to lean on through the hard times, and I figure it always will…until it’s my time to say goodbye.”
So Much For Goodbyes will be available on vinyl in black, wood grain, and sun core variants, with all production completed in the U.S.
Since his 2017 debut, Strings has earned widespread recognition, including three Grammy Awards, two back-to-back Artist of the Year at the Americana Music Awards, four-time Entertainer of the Year at the International Bluegrass Music Awards, Best New Headliner at the 2022 Pollstar Awards and Breakthrough Artist of the Pandemic at the 2021 Pollstar Awards. He has also appeared and performed at NPR’s Tiny Desk, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, NPR’s Fresh Air, The Howard Stern Show, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Bluegrass Underground as well as countless sold-out shows worldwide.
