Dillon Carmichael’s New Album, ‘Son of A,’ Features Jon Pardi, the Cadillac Three and More
Dillon Carmichael's upcoming sophomore album, Son of A, is packed with country star power.Jon Pardi and The Cadillac Three are among the notable country names who collaborated with Carmichael on the 14-track project, set for release on Oct. 22.
In fact, Pardi serves as co-producer on seven songs, including the introductory track, "Pickin' Up Girls," which features TC3. The trio's frontman, Jaren Johnston, co-wrote three of the album's songs.
"'Cause we're pickin' up girls / In a hand-me-down Ford / Nowhere bound, just to swig a little pour / Yeah, catch a little buzz / And a kiss up against that door / Keep the party going 'til we get a little torn," they chant in the rowdy, country-meets-funk number. Readers can hear the new song below.
Hitmakers Shane McAnally, Rhett Akins, Ashley Gorley, Jessi Alexander and "Dust on the Bottle" singer David Lee Murphy are also writers on Son of A's tracks. The album's songs include "Man Made a Bar;" Carmichael's current single, "Hot Beer;" and two other previously released tracks, "Big Truck" and "Hose Water."
"I can't wait for y'all to hear these songs," Carmichael writes in an Instagram post. of the album, which follows his 2018 debut, Hell on an Angel. In 2020, Carmichael's single "I Do for You" reached the Top 40 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart.
