Passage du Desir, French for "Passage of Desire", came out on July 12, 2024, through High Top Mountain, and it's Sturgill Simpson's eighth studio album in all, only this time he's hiding behind a new name: Johnny Blue Skies. He produced it with David R. Ferguson and sent it out with no promotional singles, saying it marks a new phase of his career.
The music moves easily between country, Americana and indie rock, sounding looser and dreamier than his earlier records, and "Mint Tea" is a sweet, unhurried highlight. Critics took to it, and he backed it with a tour under his own name, with his alter ego billed as the special guest.
