Shooter Jennings, the son of late country singer Waylon Jennings, is releasing previously unheard material from his father’s archives. Across interviews and a web exclusive, Shooter says he has been producing and bringing to light long-stashed recordings connected to Waylon Jennings’ work, aiming to preserve his father’s musical legacy. He discusses how the process is emotionally significant as he reviews and prepares the material for release.
Shooter has already released albums featuring newly surfaced tracks, including “Songbird.” An additional album, “Diamonds,” is scheduled for release later this year. In coverage by CBS News, Shooter describes the music as part of Waylon Jennings’ “outlaw country” style and explains his role as a producer and musician in shaping how the recordings reach listeners.
The reporting centers on Shooter’s efforts to rescue and present his father’s unreleased work, highlighting both past releases and what listeners can expect from the upcoming “Diamonds” collection.
