Snakedoctor Circus Ray Cyrus Billy

2019 release, the first new studio album in nearly three years from country artist Billy Ray Cyrus. The SnakeDoctor Circus, a concept record, features Cyrus' longtime collaborator and songwriting mentor, Don Von Tress. It's a full circle moment for Cyrus because Von Tress wrote the multi-platinum smash "Achy Breaky Heart" on Cyrus' record-breaking debut album Some Gave All. Cyrus penned "Some Gave All" about a Vietnam veteran in 1989 only to meet Von Tress, whom is also a Vietnam veteran, a few years later. The collaboration between the two songwriting titans more than 25 years ago continues with new music on The SnakeDoctor Circus. "The SnakeDoctor Circusalbum certainly has a lot to say and the music reflects all my influences. My goal has always been to make music that would touch people's lives around the world. I'm excited about getting the music to the people." - Billy Ray Cyrus.
