Brad Paisley's New Album Might Be Called 'Thoughts From A Bumpkin'

Brad Paisley has revealed that the working title for his new album is Thoughts From A Bumpkin. The lead single from the project is titled 'River Bank', and is already at country radio.

Only releasing his last album Wheelhouse in April 2013, it featured hits 'Southern Comfort Zone', 'Beat This Summer', 'I Can't Change The World' and 'The Mona Lisa', the latter of which is still charting well in the UK and Europe. But Brad reportedly got inspired to write in January, and wrote the entire record in 3 months.

"I was trying to figure out where to go from here, what to write and what felt like what I wanted to do," he explained. "There's a groove that feels like that and I think we grabbed that groove when we made this track and, more than that, there's a mindset that I am completely ready for after this winter."

While Wheelhouse threw the rulebook out the window and saw Brad challenging himself to be more creative than ever before, the new project might see him drift back toward music more akin to his previous material. Only time will tell.

Either way, I hope he changes his title.
