PHANTOM OUTLAW TO RELEASE NEW COUNTRY CONCEPT ALBUM “TAKING STOCK” ON JULY 1, 2026

An unforgettable journey of heartbreak, redemption, faith, and second chances.

ST. PETERSBURG, FL — Independent country artist Phantom Outlaw will release his highly anticipated concept album, Taking Stock, on July 1, 2026, across all major streaming platforms.

Blending traditional country storytelling with modern themes of resilience, personal growth, and unexpected love, Taking Stock follows the emotional journey of a man whose life is turned upside down by heartbreak, only to discover that what felt like an ending was actually the beginning of something better.

Spanning nine interconnected songs, the album traces a path from loss and uncertainty in Tennessee to freedom, love, and reflection on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Through themes of faith, redemption, and self-discovery, Taking Stock explores how life’s greatest lessons often emerge from its most difficult moments.

“At its heart, this album is about perspective,” says Phantom Outlaw. “It’s about looking back on the hardest chapters of your life and realizing they helped lead you exactly where you were supposed to be. Every song tells part of that story.”

Featuring standout tracks including You Can Have Tennessee, The Day I Walked Away, Midnight Star, The Devil Gets His Due, and the title track Taking Stock, the album combines heartfelt songwriting, fiddle-driven country arrangements, pedal steel guitar, and timeless storytelling inspired by the rich traditions of country music.

The album concludes with a simple but powerful message: some bets don’t work out, some dreams still come true, and every lesson has value.

Taking Stock will be available worldwide on July 1, 2026 through all major streaming services.
