Brandon Flowers charts a Nashville path on Thrasher, a personal country-infused solo chapter
TL;DR Summary
Brandon Flowers’ third solo LP, Thrasher, records in Nashville with an all-star cast and leans into country storytelling as he revisits his Utah upbringing and life beyond The Killers. The set blends road-trip anthems and intimate ballads (notably American Dream, Miss America, Plans) with a desert-Western mood, yielding a heartfelt, authentic departure that showcases Flowers’s growth as a storyteller—even if a few moments feel a touch heavy. Release date: August 21, 2026, Island Records.
