“When I decided to step into more traditional country, I knew I had to mix it up with my love for R&B. I love George Jones, but I also love to crank some Destiny Child,” says Louis. “I feel like this new music has impacted my growth as an artist and as a man, and I can’t wait for y’all to hear the new songs."
On Liquor Talkin’ Deluxe, Louis mixes swagger and soul, offering fans more of his irresistible charisma and confidence, while continuing to break boundaries with his signature blend of R&B and country.
Fans will hear the classic country-inspired “XO,” which has become a staple of his live sets, as well as other new songs including “Look What You Made Me Do” and “She Ain't Crazy Yet,” which speak to the rollercoaster of relationships. Additionally, Louis brings on Cuban-American artist Sammy Arriaga for a re-vamped, latino-stamped version of his debut album’s “Mine In My Mind."
“I’ve had a few relationships that ended in chaos—mentally and materially—so I wrote this song as a kind of tribute to the pattern I’ve seen too many times,” says Louis of “She Ain’t Crazy Yet.” “It’s a little tongue-in-cheek, but there’s some real truth in it.”
With all but one track ("Neon You") written by Louis, the deluxe album showcases his skill for high-energy, grooving songs that bring the party through the speakers with songs like "She's Trouble ft. Sophia Scott" and the newly added "XO." While Don, who was one of Nashville Lifestyles’ Most Beautiful People of 2024, is known for bringing a high-energy party atmosphere to his music, the deluxe album simultaneously highlights his deftness for deep story songs.
The piano-led heart-wrencher "Tough Pill To Swallow" details the struggle of facing the vices you've used to numb your pain, while "Give Me A Song" recognizes the cure-all healing power that music can be for listeners.
Whether it’s a two-stepping night out or a soul-searching night in, Liquor Talkin’ Deluxe gives fans a soundtrack to a full range of emotion.
