Cincinnati-born singer-songwriter Arlo McKinley draws on a lifetime of musical influences, from Hank Williams, George Jones, Bob Dylan, and Otis Redding to the Americana greats who shaped his own songwriting. His fourth record, Untitled, finds him embracing his roots through original songs and covers honoring John Prine, Gram Parsons, Blaze Foley, and Jason Molina, whose deeply personal takes on the human condition have long resonated with him. McKinley made his debut in 2014 with Arlo McKinley & the Lonesome Sound before gaining wider recognition touring alongside Tyler Childers, John Moreland, Jason Isbell, and Justin Townes Earle. His 2020 Oh Boy Records debut, Die Midwestern, brought further attention to his introspective songwriting, followed by This Mess We’re In. On Untitled, McKinley brings his musical journey full circle, drawing on the traditions and songwriters that have shaped his path.
