Son of the Mountains is the thirteenth studio album by American country music singer Brad Paisley. It was his first album for EMI Nashville, after Paisley was dropped from Arista Nashville after 25 years with the label from 1998 to 2023, due to the closure of Arista's Nashville division in 2023. The album features the singles "Same Here", "So Many Summers", "The Medicine Will", and the title track, all of which were included on an extended play titled Son of the Mountains: The First Four Tracks that was released on September 29, 2023. It was Paisley's first album after leaving Arista in 2023.

Background

In February 2023, Paisley announced that he signed a new record deal with EMI Nashville, leaving Arista Nashville, the label he had been with since the start of his career, and confirmed that a new album would be released later in 2023. The lead single, "Same Here" featuring Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, was released a few days later on February 24. [1] [2]

The album's second single, "So Many Summers", was released on June 23, 2023. [3]

An extended play containing the first four tracks of the album was released on September 29, 2023. "The Medicine Will", and "Son of the Mountains" were released alongside the EP, with Paisley stating that these two tracks act as reflections of each other and linked into the album's larger themes of exploring history and current challenges facing the region of West Virginia that he is from. Paisley noted "I'm really glad they both are coming out, because I think if you only put out "The Medicine" right now, that'd be the whole story. But I definitely think the two of them together help set the picture for the rest of this album". [4]
