Celebrated Grammy award winner Ray LaMontagne will commemorate the 20th anniversary of the release of his seminal debut album, Trouble, with a special remastered vinyl edition. Additionally, LaMontagne will embark on the Trouble 20th Anniversary Tour, performing the album in its entirety for the first time since its release. On the remastered vinyl, LaMontagne continues, “When Trouble was initially released Vinyl was considered a dead format, never to breathe again. Digital audio was the new King. As we know this has proved untrue. Each year more and more music lovers are listening to vinyl and appreciating it for its depth and breadth of sound, for its physical heft, for its tangible realness.

King Of Hearts is the 4th studio album from 5x GRAMMY Award-winning artist, songwriter, and worship leader, Brandon Lake. Following his 2023 breakthrough album 'COAT OF MANY COLORS' which spawned massive hits like "PRAISE YOU ANYWHERE" and "COUNT 'EM", 'King Of Hearts' is a natural progression and a sonic level-up from Lake's previous work. Featuring the 15-week radio No. 1 song "That's Who I Praise," as well as the massive cross-genre collaboration with Jelly Roll, "Hard Fought Hallelujah," this album is poised to impact lives of current Lake fans, while bringing brand new listeners into the fold. The 16-track album includes collaborations with Hulvey, Hank Bentley, Country music superstar Jelly Roll, and Gospel legend Cece Winans, and explores a wide sonic landscape. From the hard-hitting, in-your-face anthem "SEVENS," to the personal lyric and poetic melody of "Daddy's DNA," to the album's more tender worship moments like "The Half Has Not Been Told" and "Great I Am Can," each track offers a message of hope and inspiration in it's own way, always pointing back to Jesus, the KING OF HEARTS.
