Willie Nelson To Release New Album “God’s Problem Child”

Just when you thought Willie Nelson would be slowing things down at the tender age of 83, think again. The octogenarian, who recently had to cancel two Las Vegas shows due to illness, is set to release a brand new album, God’s Problem Child, on April 28.

album-artworkThe new album consists of 13 new songs—seven of which are written by Willie and his longtime producer  and friend, Buddy Cannon.

Not to exclude anyone’s listening preferences, Willie is making God’s Problem Child available on CD, 12″ vinyl or digitally—your choice. It’s no coincidence that the album will also be released the day before Willie’s 84th birthday (April 29), making the purchase of the album the perfect birthday present for Willie.

A stand out track on the album is the comedic “Still Not Dead,” a new song that pokes fun at the many reports of Willie’s demise that he’s heard over the years. And not one to shy away from politics, Willie gives his take on the 2106 Presidential election and how to handle the aftermath in “Delete and Fast-Forward.”

This is Willie’s ninth studio album since signing with his label, Legacy Recordings, in 2012 and has sold over 1 million albums for the label.
