Since I moved to Nashville in late 2018, James has been one of my favorite musicians to play with - he hosts several weekly bluegrass nights in town and his singing and mandolin playing have an understated confidence and soul that I love. I wanted to capture the sound of some of the best picking I’ve been doing in Nashville with this cut.

I don't listen to much country music, so I don't really know where this one lands, but I find it has some pretty good tunes and definitively good musicianship. Some of the songs mights soound a bit cheesy, but I enjoy this album overall nonetheless. The tunes which are more sounding like ballads get my preference, such as Northern Babe, and North Country Blues. Thibaut Devigne

I didn't think i could love an album more than i loved Home, along comes Renewal and i'm absolutely blown away. This album is a fantastic journey from start to finish. I'll finally be able to see Billy live in a couple of months and i'm sure it will be the show of a lifetime. SEGADEATH
