JIM BOB WORLD TOUR KICKS OFF IN MAY
March 14, 2025—Country rock superstar HARDY unveils the exclusive Amazon Music HARDY (Amazon Music Songline) today—an eight-track new release featuring reimaginings of his songs, including his only live version of “LIVE FOREVER” to date, and a cover of The 1975’s “Love It If We Made It.” Listen here.
The release highlights HARDY’s fresh takes on his own hits—“QUIT!!” becomes a piano ballad, “JACK” is made over a la Nine Inch Nails, “PSYCHO” gets countryfied and “TRUCK BED” gets the Deftones treatment, alongside much more.
The session was taped as part of “Songline,” a new docu-performance series from Amazon Music that provides fans an intimate look into an artist’s songwriting process and the stories behind the music. The series invites some of today’s most intriguing artists to reimagine their music in an intimate setting. Each performance is intercut with in-depth interviews with HARDY, giving him the opportunity to demystify the songwriting process and share his origins and cultural journeys with fans.
The full “Songline” film is set for release on March 31 via Amazon Music and HARDY’s YouTube. Watch the trailer here.
