“This album changed so much for me musically and for our live show,” says the three-time GRAMMY winner. “As a kid who worked as a clerk in a record store, there's a part of me that has always wanted this album to live on vinyl, so this is a great way to commemorate 10 years of Believers.”
The vinyl release precedes new music from Rucker, with his studio album Carolyn’s Boy set for release later this year with single “Fires Don’t Start Themselves” impacting Country radio now.
