press release: Billy Strings released “Everything’s the Same” - the third song off the forthcoming record HOME (Rounder Records). “Everything’s The Same” premiered exclusively via Billboard Labor Day week, and follows “Taking Water” and “Away From the Mire” - both released separately over the past several weeks.
Strings’ genre-crossing music and energetic live shows are taking the Americana and roots scene by storm. With more than half of his fall tour already sold out, it is apparent that Strings’ music is beginning to resonate with people on a large scale.
