NASHVILLE, Tn. (October 25, 2024) – Gaining national recognition in the bluegrass community for his vocal harmonies and versatile guitar work as a member of Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers, Adam McIntosh continues to explore his musical potential with the release of his debut solo album, Restless, earlier this year. Today, McIntosh and Billy Blue Records are proud to announce the release of his latest single from that album, "Fences."

In “Fences,” co-written by seasoned songwriter Mark "Brink" Brinkman and the late Dale Pyatt, McIntosh delivers his own distinctive take on bluegrass storytelling.

“’Fences’ is one of those songs that says so much in spite of using few words,” McIntosh explains. “It paints the picture of a man afraid to rebuild a relationship after experiencing heartbreak.  I like this song because it sends the message that redemption is possible.”

Jerry Salley, Creative Director of Billy Blue Records, adds, “In my opinion, great songs are the heart of any successful project. Adam's song selection for this album really impressed me, and "Fences" has quickly become one of my favorites.”

Salley continues, “As a close friend of both “Brink” and Dale Pyatt, I can tell you the songs they co-wrote over the years were always crafted very, very well. Songs from the heart. In "Fences," the singer ultimately learns that putting up fences is pointless. No matter what he does, he can’t stop loving her.”

A native of Ohio, Adam McIntosh began his musical journey with his family’s band, Dry Branch Fire Squad, before joining Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers as a lead vocalist and guitarist.
