The genre-defying maverick of modern country music is poised to launch a groundbreaking new chapter in his career. After a decade that saw him rise to the pinnacle of musical acclaim with his Grammy-winning work, Simpson is stepping into a fresh persona: Johnny Blue Skies. Marking this transformation, Simpson, under his new alias, is set to release his eagerly anticipated eighth studio album, "Passage Du Desir," on July 12, 2024. This album, his first as Johnny Blue Skies, is more than just a name change - it represents a bold reinvention and a new sonic landscape.
