After ending his partnership with Columbia Nashville, Rice announced on June 20 that he has signed with BBR Music Group's Broken Bow Records label. Lambs and Lions is, per a recent interview, the title of his next album, which was produced by Chris DeStefano, Mac MacAnally and Jacquire King.
“There will always be people saying, ‘You’re not country, you’re ruining country.’ And there were songs [on Rice's 2014 album Ignite the Night] where I’m like, ‘You’re kind of right,'” Rice says. “I’m very proud of it, but I didn’t have a clue what I was doing on that record. I was just throwing a bunch of stuff on a wall and seeing what stuck. There is some stuff on there that is the same old s–t, and I’m tired of that. They’re finally going to see the me I want them to see.”
