![]() (Nashville, Tenn.) Nashville recording artist Richard Schroder has announced the release of his new single, “Almost an Angel,” to country radio on October 15. Produced by Grammy-nominated producer Matt McClure (Lee Brice, Kellie Pickler), “Almost an Angel” is the lead single from his upcoming six-song Amplifier Records EP, Skyline, coming in early 2019. Punctuated by a chunky riff, drum-tight construction and dueling guitar solos, “Almost an Angel” represents a new creative level for the Bostonbased artist, both sonically and creatively. “When Matt first sent me this song I just loved it, and I felt I had to take a shot at it myself,” said Schroder. “Recording it was one of the best experiences of my musical life.” The new release follows Schroder’s two successful previous singles, “Drivin’” and “Wildest Dreams,” both of which charted on the Music Row CountryBreakout Chart and received airplay on scores of country stations nationally. His Drive album has reached 300,000 Spotify streams and landed on more than 1,100 individual playlists, heady accomplishments for a debut independent release. In preparing to record the Skyline EP, Richard Schroder partnered with with acclaimed writer Steve Seskin, a seven-time #1 hit songwriter for Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, and others. Together they both co-wrote and discovered the outside songs that became the new set. The goals and desires of the recording were simple from the start. “I wanna make music that somebody will really like, music that speaks to people. Personally, I’m having a blast and I want others to like what I’ve been so fortunate to enjoy. Writing songs, working with Steve, playing my music with these players, and being a part of the Nashville community.” He pauses. “I feel like I've climbed to the top of a mountain. Now I'm seeing the view and I realize, ‘Wow, there's a lot more room for me to climb.’”
