Sturgill Simpson : A Sailor's Guide To Earth (SYEOR 2026)
 
Produced by Simpson, A Sailor's Guide To Earth was written-beginning to end-as a letter to
his first child who arrived during the summer of 2014 and features eight original songs as
well as a rendition of Nirvana's In Bloom. Recorded primarily at Nashville's The Butcher
Shoppe, Simpson was joined in the studio by Grammy Award-winning engineer David
Ferguson (Johnny Cash, John Prine, "Cowboy" Jack Clement) and assistant engineer Sean
Sullivan. Along with members of his touring band, the album features Dave Roe on bass,
Dan Dugmore on steel guitar, Dougie Wilkinson on bagpipes, Garo Yellin and Arthur Cook
on cello, Jonathan Dinklage and Whitney LaGrange on violin and special guests The
Dap-Kings. Pressed on 180 gram premium-quality vinyl at Fidelity Record Pressing as part
of the Rhino Reserve audiophile vinyl series.
