Randall King Releases “I’ll Be Home For Christmas”

“A little western Swing for Christmas this year? Try that on for size,” King shares with a grin.

“I’ll Be Home For Christmas” arrives as the Texan’s final release of 2024, as he prepares to conclude a year that marked both professional and personal highs – beginning with the launch of his sophomore album Into The Neon in January and capped by his recent engagement to his long-time girlfriend, Brittany Warthan.

Into The Neon arrived on January 26 to critical acclaim from Grammy.com, Billboard and more, leaving Texas Monthly stating “his Texas bona fides are unimpeachable” and Holler lauding King as “the genre’s neo-traditional figurehead.” The album yielded King’s debut single, “I Could Be That Rain,” which arrived as the most-added single at country radio, with 59 total adds to-date.

King stayed true to his road warrior reputation this year, headlining over 130 shows across the country, in addition to his 10-show Into The Neon – International Tour which included six sold-out shows in Copenhagen, Denmark; Amsterdam, Netherlands and more.

He’ll wind down the year with appearances at National Finals Rodeo (NFR) in Las Vegas, including his annual Tonk Vegas show at Stoney’s Rockin’ Country on Dec. 8 with special guests Drake Milligan, Kylie Frey, Jenna Paulette, Brittany Warthan, Wynn Williams, Clay Hollis and Tyler Halverson.

About Randall King: 
A West Texas native and self-described “old soul,” Warner Music Nashville’s Randall King has never wavered in his honky-tonk allegiance – in fact, he’s worn it like a badge of honor, growing with pride into a leading voice for today’s traditional country. Amassing nearly 400 Million streams with singles like “You In A Honky Tonk,” “Hey Cowgirl” and “Mirror, Mirror,” he’s kept the twang alive in country’s mainstream while also earning acclaim through deeply personal EPs like 2020’s Leanna, and his 2022 major label album debut, Shot Glass – which landed on both Whiskey Riff’s Top 40 Country Albums of 2022 and Billboard’s All Genre 50 Best Albums of 2022 (So Far). Schooled on icons like Keith Whitley, George Strait, Alan Jackson and John Anderson, but inspired by modern masters like Dierks Bentley and Gary Allan, King first built an independent, grass-roots following on the strength of his electrifying live shows – each one a harrowing mix of rowdy roughnecking, romantic tenderness and breathtaking emotion – never asking for permission to explore his creative vision. He has since gone on to headline all across the U.S., the U.K. and Europe, where he continues to play nearly 150 shows a year and hone his craft where it matters most. Named a Country Artist to Watch by everyone from Pandora and Country Now to Music Mayhem Magazine, his sophomore major label album Into the Neon, available now, takes that craft to the next level, as King’s neo-traditional roots meet the blood-pumping rhythms and sharp, arena-sized grooves of Y2K-era country and beyond. Co-produced by King and Jared Conrad, and featuring 18 tracks, punchy sounds exist side-by-side with timeless swagger, further blurring the line between yesteryear and today – even as King renews his forever-country vows. Into The Neon was named among the best country albums of the year (so far) by Whiskey Riff, Country Now & Entertainment Focus, and yielded King’s debut single, “I Could Be That Rain,” available now at country radio.
