Fulfilling a lifelong dream, Adam jetted off to the bright lights of the immortal Music City to record masterful 10th studio album The Nashville Tapeswith producer Nash Chambers, armed with a brace of new songs couched in the classic country sounds that most capture his imagination.

It’s one of those things that’s been on my bucket list for probably 20-odd years, to actually go and record an album over there in Nashville,”Harvey says of the inspiration behind The Nashville Tapes.

“I thought, I want to make a 70’s country album: that’s my favourite era in country music. While everybody else is heading further and further away from classic country music, it’s a good step for me to not only follow my passion and my heart, but also to go the other way!”


The beating heart of The Nashville Tapes is the anthemic first single ‘I’d Rather Be a Highwayman’, a careworn barroom sway coloured with intoxicating piano and cowboy drums, which transitions into a stirring dedication to the immortal flame of classic country. 

‘Nothin makes me give a damn more than country can, I’d rather be a Highwayman than a Rolling Stone,’ sings Harvey.
