Label: EMIRelease Date: 21st August Brandon Flowers does Nashville country with Shawn Everett and store favourite Jonathan Rado on the desk. He's doing his best Glen Campbells and if anyone can lend himself to hamming it up yet staying somehow cool with it, it's Flowers. Brandon Flowers will release THRASHER, his first solo album in over a decade, August 21, 2026 via Island Records. Recorded in Nashville at Historic RCA Studio A with longtime producers Shawn Everett and Jonathan Rado, THRASHER features many of Music City’s most renowned players, including longtime Gillian Welch collaborator David Rawlings on guitar, prolific and influential pedal steel player Bruce Bouton, and Charlie McCoy, the legendary harmonica player whose signature playing graces all four of Bob Dylan’s iconic Nashville records. Rooted in his formative childhood years in the small town of Nephi, Utah, the timeless sonic approach proves to be the ideal home for Flowers’ most personal and vulnerable songwriting yet.
