Less than a year since the release of his duet album with some of the finest ladies in music (including Dolly Parton, Norah Jones, Miranda Lambert and others), Willie Nelson is poised to release "Band of Brothers" on June 17th on Legacy Recordings. Produced by Buddy Cannon (Kenny Chesney, Reba McEntire), the album was recorded by Nelson during October 2013 and March 2014. The sessions took place at Nashville's Sound Emporium Studios with additional recordings at Pedernales Studio in Austin, Texas and The Hit Factory Criteria in Miami, Florida.

Nine of the fourteen tracks of the album consist in newly written compositions by Nelson, the most included in one of his album releases since 1996's Spirit. The album includes covers of Vince Gill's "Whenever You Come Around", Gordie Sampson's "Songwriter" and a duet with Jamey Johnson of Billy Joe Shaver's "The Git Go". The video for the first single, "The Wall" was premiered on May 6, 2014 by Rolling Stone,while the single itself was made available for download on the same day.
