Jelly Roll Drops Intense Video for ‘Dead End Road’ From ‘Twisters’ [WATCH]

Jelly Roll has two songs on the new Twisters soundtrack, out now. The Nashville native released “Leave the Light On,” his duet with Alexandra Kay, plus “Dead End Road,” the latter along with an intense video, sharing scenes from the just-released film.

“Dead End Road” is part of a star-studded soundtrack, with songs by Shania TwainThomas RhettMegan Moroney, ,  Miranda LambertLainey Wilson and more.

“That ‘Oklahoma‘ song that Luke Combs has is just unbelievable,” Jelly Roll tells Canada’s Etalk. “That Tyler Childers song they just released is unreal. The talent of it looks like they put together a soundtrack that record labels in Nashville couldn’t put together. It’s awesome. They left no stone unturned.”

Jelly Roll has a Top 20 hit with “I Am Not Okay,” the debut single from his still-untitled next studio album.

“My sound has never fully favored the summer, so I think we’ll be coming out around fall … I do have a couple of fun songs on this album,” Jelly Roll hints on Audacy’s Katie & Company. “It was cool because I’m in a different headspace than I’ve ever been, so I was in a cool place to be able to write like that. I wrote most of my career from extreme, dark hopelessness, which I still write from, but I think this was like, I’ve had enough cool experiences. My music will always favor the fall.”

The 39-year-old burst onto the music scene in 2022 with “Son of a Sinner,” kicking off a superstar career that has included chart-topping singles, numerous awards, a Grammy nomination and more. Through it all, Jelly Roll has been writing and writing, which makes choosing songs for his upcoming project a challenge.

“It’s the longest chapter I’ve wrote ever, maybe in my career. I wrote a hundred and something songs last year,” Jelly Roll recently revealed on the Country Heat Weekly podcast (via American Songwriter). “I don’t know how many of them I’m actually going to release this year. Last year, I did a really tight small package with Whitsitt Chapel. I told my wife I’m fighting the urge to start getting on TikTok like an artist that never made it and start dropping songs and see what goes. I have that many songs.”

Jelly Roll will embark on his Beautifully Broken Tour on August 27, with Kay and Warren Zeiders serving as his opening act. Find all of his music and upcoming shows at JellyRoll615.com.
