NASHVILLE, Tenn. – As Randall King readies his follow-up project to 2024’s Into The Neon, the Hereford, Texas native arrives today with his latest slow burner, “Thinkin’ ‘Bout Drinkin’,” available everywhere now. Listen HERE.
“I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout how excited I am for this new chapter – so what better day than today to share an early taste of what we’ve got cooking? ‘Thinkin’ ‘Bout Drinkin” is country music delivered right to your ears, courtesy of the Tonk machine,” shares King. “I hope you enjoy it, because there’s more like it coming soon…”
Written by Don Sampson, Monty Holmes and Troy Cassar-Daley, and produced by Jared Conrad, “Thinkin’ ‘Bout Drinkin’” finds the narrator facing temptation in the face of heartbreak.
There’s a bar and there’s a bottle just waitin’
That don’t know how it’s gonna end
But I can tell you it won’t be pretty
‘Cause I’m thinkin’ ’bout drinkin’ again
“Thinkin’ ‘Bout Drinkin’” is King’s first release since signing with progressive artist development company Neon Coast for artist management, and is the latest off his upcoming project.
King’s sophomore album, Into The Neon, was released Jan. 26, 2024 to critical acclaim, leaving Texas Monthly observing “his Texas bona fides are unimpeachable.” Into The Neon was also named among the top country albums of 2024 by Entertainment Focus and Whiskey Riff.
Known for his road warrior diet of nearly 150 shows a year, King is currently on his 2026 Big Deal Tour and will support Luke Bryan on select dates of his upcoming Word On The Street Tour. King will kick off his 13-date A Long Way From Amarillo Europe 2026 Tour on May 4 in Oslo, Norway.

ABOUT RANDALL KING:
A West Texas native and self-described “old soul,” Warner Music Nashville’s Randall King has never wavered in his honky-tonk allegiance – in fact, he’s worn it like a badge of honor, growing with pride into a leading voice for today’s traditional country. Amassing nearly 500 Million streams with singles like “You In A Honky Tonk,” “Hey Cowgirl” and “Mirror, Mirror,” he’s kept the twang alive in country’s mainstream while also earning acclaim through deeply personal EPs like 2020’s Leanna, and his 2022 major label album debut, Shot Glass – which landed on both Whiskey Riff’s Top 40 Country Albums of 2022 and Billboard’s All Genre 50 Best Albums of 2022 (So Far). Schooled on icons like Keith Whitley, George Strait, Alan Jackson and John Anderson, but inspired by modern masters like Dierks Bentley and Gary Allan, King first built an independent, grass-roots following on the strength of his electrifying live shows – each one a harrowing mix of rowdy roughnecking, romantic tenderness and breathtaking emotion – never asking for permission to explore his creative vision. He has since gone on to headline all across the U.S., the U.K. and Europe, where he continues to play nearly 150 shows a year and hone his craft where it matters most. Named a Country Artist to Watch by everyone from Pandora and Country Now to Music Mayhem Magazine, his sophomore major label album Into the Neon, available now, takes that craft to the next level, as King’s neo-traditional roots meet the blood-pumping rhythms and sharp, arena-sized grooves of Y2K-era country and beyond. Co-produced by King and Jared Conrad, and featuring 18 tracks, punchy sounds exist side-by-side with timeless swagger, further blurring the line between yesteryear and today–even as King renews his forever-country vows. Into The Neon was named among the best country albums of the year by Whiskey Riff, Country Now & Entertainment Focus, and yielded King’s debut single, “I Could Be That Rain.”
