"Back to Nowhere" infuses the perfect blend of indie-rock and alternative country in one infectious rock track. The song was recorded and produced in Los Angeles over the past 2 months with producer John Kimbrough (Tenacious D, Walt Mink) and features Byrd on drums/percussion, guitars, and vocals. The song captures the humble reality of how life always seems to take you back to that place of surrender and starting over, and was inspired by years of touring and coming off the road to feel like you never left at all.
Coming off the heels of a successful west coast tour (LA to Vancouver) in August, the troubadour is poised to release his 1st single since 2013's "It Just Goes On" produced by Warren Huart (Aerosmith, The Fray). "Back to Nowhere" is set for release on 9/17 and will be the first single off his upcoming 3rd official LP, due out in spring 2016 on Vinyl and digital.
