Known as one of the best guitar players in music today, Urban revisits the breezy, laid-back sounds of classic yacht rock tunes for a reinvigorated collection of the timeless songs that will have us lathering up the sunscreen and blending drinks all summer long. Featuring collaborations with musical icons Michael McDonald, Little Big Town and John Mayer, Flow State evokes a carefree nostalgia featuring songs such as \u201cSummer Breeze,\u201d \u201cBaby Come Back\u201d and \u201cJust the Two of Us,\u201d alongside original track, \u201cWe Go Back\u201d (ft. Michael McDonald). Produced by Urban and Dann Huff and recorded at Urban\u2019s \u201cThe Sound\u201d studio in Nashville, Flow State is an easygoing seaside soundtrack that brings the good vibes.
\u201cThe origins of this kind of music was, in certain ways, a reaction and an antidote to the stresses of the times. Its sole mission (and soul mission) is unchanged\u2026to bring us together and remind us that life is happening NOW- the eternal now- and we have far more in common than not. I hope wherever you hear this album you can feel the exhale, comfort and optimism these songs were originally written by and for.\u201d
-Keith Urban
