Beyond the Ranch: Luke Grime’s new album and ‘Marshals’ song

On Friday, February 13, Grimes announced that he would be releasing Redbird, his second studio album, on April 3. He also shared that one of the songs—“Love You Now”—was is currently available to stream.

“Making Redbird was a cathartic experience in many ways,” Grimes said in a statement. “Sometimes the highs and lows of life are too much to express with words, so song becomes necessary. As deeply personal as it is, the themes are simple and universal: love, loss and learning along the way.”

Redbird will feature 10 songs, which you can view below, all of which were co-written by Grimes, Jessie Jo Dillon, Natalie Hemby, Nick Walsh, Wolf Mahler and Dave Cobb, who also produced the album.

“High Rise Jeans”
“Come Home”
“Love You Now”
“Hummingbird”
“Drink Drink Drink”
“Love Me That Way”
“I’m Not Gonna Leave You”
“Without You”
“Haunted”
“A Little More Time”

“Grimes co-wrote much of the album and contributed acoustic guitar, percussion, and drums throughout the sessions, working alongside Cobb and collaborators including Jessie Jo Dillon, Natalie Hemby and others,” reads the album synopsis sent to Woman’s World. “Songs like ‘Drink Drink Drink’ and ‘Haunted’ wrestle with self-doubt and reckoning, while ‘Without You,’ ‘A Little More Time’ and today’s release ‘Love You Now’ reflect on commitment, loss and the quiet strength found in staying present.”

Following that, Grimes announced that his song “Haunted” would not only be available to stream ahead of the album’s release, but it would also be featured in Marshals.

“Anchored by sparse instrumentation and his steady baritone, the track builds with quiet intensity—reflecting both the emotional undercurrent of the song and the character-driven tension at the heart of Marshals,” reads the press release issued to Woman’s World. “The release marks a rare intersection of Grimes’ dual creative worlds. As the star of Marshals, Grimes takes center stage in the new CBS series, and ‘Haunted’ serves as a thematic companion to the show’s exploration of responsibility, reckoning, and resilience. The placement underscores his growing presence not only as an actor but as a songwriter whose music mirrors the depth and complexity of the roles he portrays.”

Naturally, fans are buzzing and have even begun to wonder if the song is a callout to Grimes’ character Kayce Dutton’s journey in Marshals. Ever since the trailer was released, fans have been wondering where Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille) has been. Many viewers believe that she could be dead, which would make sense given Grimes’ song choice of being haunted by the ghost of a lost loved one.

No official story lines have been confirmed and won’t likely be until the Marshals premiere on Sunday, March 1.

“It will be weird,” Grimes told People magazine of the show back in June of 2025. “There’s going to be some familiar faces, but there’s going to be a lot of new faces too, so we’ll see how that all feels.”

“We definitely wanted to make sure to give it a real story and make it interesting and make it believable,” he continued. “If it was just like, ‘Well, he’s happy’—we’re just going to watch him be happy? That’s not very cool. But I’ll say this, the idea that was pitched to me is very, very good and very interesting and it really roped me in and I think it will rope the audience in as well.

A track-by-track look back at Luke Grimes’ most popular songs

Prior to Redbird, Grimes released a self-titled album in 2024, which he told Woman’s World, “thought about it for two years” before actually releasing it.

“I’m nervous. I don’t want to be judged. I don’t want to look cheesy. I don’t want to look like I’m trying to take someone else’s job. And finally, I was just like, ‘I got to put all that away and get over the fear, and just do it. Because I’ll be really upset one day if I look back and I didn’t,” he continued.

The album had 13 tracks, as detailed below.

“Burn”
“Playing’ on the Tracks”
“Hold On”
“Black Powder”
“Ghost of Who We Were”
“Oh Ohio”
“God And A GIrl”
“What Angels Do”
“No Horse To Ride”
“Wait For The Rain to Die Down”
“Ain’t Dead Yet”
“South On 75”
“Worst Of Me”

“We all go through things, and that’s the kind of music that I’ve always liked. The stuff that’s always been important to me has been stuff that made me feel like we’re all in this together. Music is such a human thing, and a shared experience,” Grimes said.

“There’s nothing to hide behind with the music. I feel like with the other job [acting], getting to know me was never part of the job,” he continued. “The point was that you didn’t get to know me, that you can believe me as something else, and the more you get to know me, maybe the less believable that is. So, I think a lot of mystery is a good thing for people who play characters. But my music is way more personal. It’s my words coming out of my mouth.”
