Soul-stirring singer-songwriter Dillon James will release his debut EP, River Black, on July 12. The California-born country firebrand has turned heads with a first-hand account of his journey to redemption across autobiographical songs that “stand out for their brutal honesty” (Rolling Stone). Pre-save the EP on digital platforms here. Get a first glimpse into Dillon’s hard-fought journey from Bakersfield, CA, through the streets of Los Angeles, to Nashville here.
“This EP represents how far I’ve come, and my new life after my past,” shares Dillon. “There have been ups and downs, ebbs and flows, and these songs tell those stories. I’m grateful that, through my music, I can share my testimony with anyone who might relate and need to hear that they aren’t alone.”
