GRAMMY® Award-winning vocalist, songwriter, guitar legend, producer, and Gov’t Mule frontman Warren Haynes has released his new single “I’ll Be The One,” the latest offering from the forthcoming re-mixed and re-mastered version of his debut solo studio album, ‘Tales of Ordinary Madness’.
With the original release of ‘Tales of Ordinary Madness’ in March 1993, Haynes – then a full-time member of the Allman Brothers Band – introduced himself as a solo artist with an impressive collection of songs that perfectly balance his soulful songwriting and powerful guitar work, set against a diverse sound blending the many styles that have influenced him including rock, blues, and soul.
We caught up with Warren to discuss the reasoning for releasing this re-issue now, touring the record, recording with William Shatner and what lies ahead for the reast of 2026 and beyond.
‘Tales of Ordinary Madness’ is set for release January 30th via Megaforce Records, the new, expanded 12-track album, featuring one bonus song not included on the original, was produced by Chuck Leavell and co-produced by Haynes, re-mixed by Jim Scott at Plyrz Studios, and re-mastered by Greg Calbi and Steve Fallone at Sterling Sound.
