The best Americana albums are a multicultural, mixed-gender, cross-genre lineup of music that draws from country, folk, rock, blues, roots music, and bluegrass.

The last time we caught up with Jon Dee Graham, he was struggling to strike a balance between making a living as a traveling musician and being a good father to his young son. A quarter-century later, that son is a thriving adult living in New York City, and Graham has been dealing with the far weightier issues that come with aging. A native Texan and a fixture in Austin for decades now, the 64-year-old guitarist and singer/songwriter has survived a heart attack and a stroke over the past four years.

Jon Dee Graham's first album in seven years, 'Only Dead For a Little While', showcases the Lone Star musician's humor, creative talent, and generous spirit.

Today, Jon Dee Graham is sharing the third single from his upcoming album, Only Dead For A Little While, out November 10 on New West subsidiary Strolling Bones Records. The single, "there's a ghost on the train," references an eerie trip Jon Dee took on the legendary train the "City of New Orleans," immortalized in song by Steve Goodman and made famous by Arlo Guthrie, among others.
