Shaboozey Announces Concept Album, ‘The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales,’ and Fall ‘Outlaws Never Die’ Tour

Shaboozey has announced his fourth studio album, The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales, due out July 31, along with his Outlaws Never Die Tour, which will take place this fall.

The concept album tells a western-inspired story centered on Cherie Lee, a woman seeking revenge after her father’s murder while enduring the trials and tribulations of  a complicated love story. The project’s lead single, “Born To Die,” serves as the first preview of what fans can expect from this next set of music.

The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales will follow 2024’s Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going album, which as the country star explains, was a collection of songs that acted as a “journal entry,” allowing fans across the world to get to know who he is as a person. He is now building off the momentum and preparing to share even more stories that showcases his artistry and mission as a storyteller. 

“That album changed my life,” he admits. “I never expected people to connect with the album and enjoy it the way they did. But now I want to show the world who I am as an artist and storyteller.”

Shaboozey goes on to explain that his upcoming release has been “several years in the making” as he made plenty of revisions along the way before he could feel content with the final product. The result of his tedious efforts is a western style album that chronicles a story of revenge told through every song, with its main character, Cherie Lee, at the center of it all. Additionally, the track list will feature several star-studded collaborations that continue to push the boundaries of country music. 

“It explores so many themes, as many timeless westerns have: revenge, redemption, and romance, through the eyes of a protagonist looking to challenge everything she once thought true about her world. I poured all of myself into this and I hope people become as immersed in the world and the journey as I have.”

He adds, “This album was a promise to myself and something, no matter what, I had to keep. It pushed my songwriting and storytelling to new heights, and I couldn’t be more proud to say it’s done and almost yours.”

In support of the album, Shaboozey will launch his Outlaws Never Die Tour in September. The tour will run through October with stops across North America, including Nashville, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. The tour will also include a stop in Nashville on Sept. 18 at Ascend Amphitheater.
