“The thing that would be the coolest is if people heard that and wanted then to be more honest about who they were with other people, you know, just to go, it’s okay to open up and say that, you know, this is me and this is also me. And there’s things that aren’t perfect. And there’s things that, you know, there’s blemishes and, but we all have love inside us. Ya know, which is the God inside of us is, is, you know, the beautiful part and then the ugly parts. And I think, you know, that was the goal is just go like, you can be honest about who you are and I think if we start there then the world would be a better place.“
Recorded between Georgia May Studio in Savannah and Nashville’s historic RCA Studio A, Red Bird leans into classic country foundations and organic instrumentation, allowing space for Grimes’ steady baritone and direct songwriting to lead. Across the album, he explores love, faith, regret, and resilience with a quiet intensity that prioritizes authenticity over excess.
Grimes co-wrote much of the project and contributed acoustic guitar, percussion, and drums throughout, collaborating closely with Cobb and a group of trusted writers including Jessie Jo Dillon and Natalie Hemby. Songs like “Drink Drink Drink” and “Haunted” confront self-doubt and reckoning, while “Without You,” “A Little More Time,” and “Love You Now” reflect on commitment, loss, and the strength found in staying present.
In the lead-up to the album, Grimes released “Haunted,” a brooding and introspective track featured in his new CBS series MARSHALS, creating a rare intersection between his work on screen and in music. The song underscores the emotional depth and thematic continuity that runs throughout Red Bird, further establishing Grimes as a storyteller whose creative voice spans both mediums.
Already known to audiences worldwide for his role as Kayce Dutton on Paramount Network’s Yellowstone, Grimes continues to expand his creative footprint. With MARSHALS and Red Bird arriving in tandem, 2026 marks a defining chapter — one that sees him fully stepping into his identity as both artist and storyteller.
Following his self-titled debut album and breakout track “No Horse to Ride,” which helped push his catalog past 200 million global streams, Red Bird signals a deeper commitment to craft and longevity — a cohesive, unvarnished album that reflects an artist confident in his voice and focused on building something lasting.
