Skip Ewing has long been the quintessential troubadour, a thoughtful poet armed with a guitar and an arsenal of words and emotions he’s channeled into some of country music’s most memorable songs. Not content to rest on his laurels, Ewing continues to contribute to today’s music landscape with such acclaimed collections as his 2020 album Wyoming, 2021’s Christmas and his latest creative tour de force —Road to California.
The album offers an introspective look at Ewing’s creative endeavors and maturity as a songwriter and artist through singles like “Knots,” “Wreck of My Heart” and “Windmill” alongside lighthearted tunes like “Road Dog.” No stranger to turning out hits, Ewing has had songs recorded by Keith Urban, Zac Brown Band, George Strait, Keb Mo, Kenny Rogers, Willie Nelson and numerous others. His No. 1 hits include Collin Raye’s “Love, Me,” Diamond Rio’s “I Believe,” Kenny Chesney’s “You Had Me from Hello,” Clint Black’s “Something That We Do” and Bryan White’s “Rebecca Lynn,” “Someone Else’s Star,” and “I’m Not Supposed to Love You Anymore.”
Most recently, his song “I Would If I Could” (co-written with Dean Dillon) was featured on Apple Music’s Lost & Found project with reigning CMA and ACM Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson recording a brand new version of the song. In high-demand, the tune was also recorded for ERNEST’s brand new album this time as a duet between himself and Wilson. The revival of the song has earned high-praise from Music Row, American Songwriter and Holler to name a few.
