The Lone Star State just got a little more legendary. The album that had everyone talking in 2023 — praised by Texas Monthly as one of the “Best Albums of the Year” — has proven that everything really is bigger in Texas.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation’s groundbreaking compilation Texas Wild showed that when Texas musicians reimagine classic Lone Star anthems, magic happens. Now, that magic grows with the release of the Texas Wild Deluxe Edition — a 13-track collection that adds two bonus cuts too good to leave on the cutting room floor: Zella Day’s ethereal take on “You’re Gonna Miss Me” and Ruthie Foster’s soulful rendition of “Pretty Woman.”
This isn’t your typical covers album — it’s a genre-bending journey through blues, cumbia, country, hip-hop, R&B, and electronica, colliding in ways that shouldn’t work but absolutely do. Every track captures that untamed Texas spirit you can’t find anywhere else.
Texas Wild Deluxe Edition features all new artwork with four interchangeable block print covers by Mishka Westell, a 24 page booklet with essays about Texas music, conservation efforts, and history. Texas Wild was manufactured on Bio Vinyl using petroleum-free PVC, sustainably forested paper, and a fully compostable PLA bag. This deluxe edition proves that great art supports great causes. Every purchase benefits the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation. about Texas music, conversation efforts, and history, this deluxe edition proves that great art supports great causes.
