Hayes Carll And The Band of Heathens Deliver New 4/20 Anthem Nobody Dies From Weed
NASHVILLE, TN (CelebrityAccess)—On 4/20, music enthusiasts are in for a treat as Grammy-nominated Americana artist Hayes Carll and Gold-selling rock group The Band of Heathens unveil their latest collaboration, “Nobody Dies From Weed.” Released today under the collective name Hayes & The Heathens, the song offers a timely message celebrating the recreational use of marijuana.
Carll and Driver Williams pen the 4/20-friendly song, “Nobody Dies From Weed,” which delivers a laid-back vibe and a reassuring assertion: despite life’s myriad risks, cannabis isn’t among them. The track combines musical styles, blending Americana, rock ‘n’ roll, folk, country, and blues. Williams offers the message, “There’s a million ways to make the grave, but nobody dies from weed. While we’re not technically doctors, we did our own research and found this mostly true. You’re welcome!”
Hayes & The Heathens isn’t merely a pairing of Carll and The Band of Heathens; it’s a unified powerhouse led by Carll alongside The Heathens’ Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist. Their collaboration is built on mutual respect and shared experiences, with the artists’ paths crossing multiple times. Notably, their creative journey culminated in a memorable jam session in Luckenbach, Texas, back in October 2023.
“We had such a blast collaborating and playing together out in Luckenbach that we wanted to take this on the road and share it with more people,” says Quist.
Beyond their live performances, Hayes & The Heathens have ambitious plans for their partnership. They aim to merge their acclaimed catalogs, produce new music, and put their unique spin on classic tracks. You can listen to the new track HERE.
“We’ve played a lot of music together over the years,” says Carll, “and our creative relationship continues to evolve into its own thing. Hayes & The Heathens is that thing.”
“This sort of medicine show, revival, rock and roll circus is a unique presentation of our music,” adds Jurdi. “I think anyone who loves the spontaneity and chemistry of a live performance will be in for a magical evening. I know we’re going to have a good time!”
As fans eagerly anticipate the release of “Nobody Dies From Weed” and the promise of future collaborations, Hayes & The Heathens stand poised to deliver an electrifying blend of music and camaraderie that captures the essence of American roots rock.
