\n\tSix months after releasing his last album, Charley Crockett<\/a> is set to complete his Sagebrush Trilogy.<\/p>\n \n\tThe prolific songwriter dropped \u201cKentucky Too Long\u201d last Friday \u2014 a guitar-heavy lament, which builds upon the themes that the Texas crooner laid out over the past year. On Wednesday, Crockett announced the release of Age of the Ram<\/em>, the third and final LP of the trilogy, due April 3. Like its trilogy companions, Age of the Ram<\/em> was produced by Shooter Jennings at Sunset Sound Studio 3 in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n \n\tThe project began with Lonesome Drifter<\/a><\/em> in March 2025 and continued with the August release of Dollar a Day<\/a><\/em>, which was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Traditional Country Album category. Together, the records blend Western imagery and tales of survival with Crockett\u2019s commentary on the state of country music and the industry demands that envelope his career. The 20-track Age of the Ram<\/em> introduces a new character and storyline to round out the Sagebrush Trilogy, according to Crockett.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cAge of the Ram<\/em> is the story of Billy McLane, a small-time cattle rustler who finds himself in the crosshairs of the Santa Fe ring,\u201d Crockett explained in a statement, \u201cpursued by bounty killers working for the shadow syndicate. Billy McLane escapes into the crazy mountains where the outlaw will become a legend.\u201d<\/p>\n
