2023 release. The Shootouts didn't expect to be back in the studio so soon after the release of their Top 10 Americana album 'Bullseye'. But when one of country music's most legendary artists agrees to produce your next record, you don't say no. That's what happened when a mutual friend introduced the band to Ray Benson - longtime frontman and 10-time Grammy-winning founder of Asleep at the Wheel. Just months after the April 2021 release of Bullseye, the Shootouts found themselves hard at work with Benson and co-producer Sam Seifert on the album that would become 'Stampede'. The album continues to follow the Shootouts mission statement of embracing the various roots of country music while filtering it through the lense of a band from Northeast Ohio. It features special guests Asleep at the Wheel, Raul Malo, Jim Lauderdale, Buddy Miller, and Marty Stuart.
