Johnny Blue Skies & The Dark Clouds — Mutiny After Midnight
PREORDER — RELEASE DATE: 3/13/26
Limited Edition Indie Exclusive LP on Translucent Red Vinyl
Mutiny After Midnight marks Sturgill Simpson’s second release as Johnny Blue Skies, following his 2024 debut, Passage Du Desir, which landed at #2 on Rolling Stone’s list of the Best Country and Americana Albums of the year.
Recorded and produced at Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound in Nashville, the whole process was a spontaneous affair in order to capture the vibe: “There’s a simple goal we as a band set out to achieve: to make a dance record,” Simpson said in a statement. “I wrote words to what is happening in the world and my life in real time, and played with a group of musicians I deeply love and respect,” Simpson said. “Together, we made an album that is very fun, and will hopefully offer some relief from darkness in the world.”
The album features nine tracks, kicking off with the opener “Make America Fuk Again” and concluding with “Ain’t That A Bitch.” This new venture marks the latest move in a career that continues to defy industry stereotypes through a catalog of songs built on poetic songwriting, constant evolution, and the democratic brotherhood of a band.
