Sturgill Simpson — Ballad Of Dood & Juanita

Indie Exclusive Natural Colored Vinyl LP

Inspired by such classic concept albums as Willie Nelson’s Red-Headed Stranger, Sturgill Simpson’s The Ballad Of Dood & Juanita is the Grammy-winning singer/songwriter’s most ambitious project to date. Written and recorded in less than a week, and featuring the same ace musicians who played on 2020’s Cuttin’ Grass albums, the record tells the story of a Civil War-era couple torn apart by violence and reunited by love — what Simpson calls “a simple tale of either redemption or revenge.” Special guest Willie Nelson is the featured lead guitarist on the track “Juanita.”
