Country Music Legend Randy Travis Casts A Line in Newly Released Original Song “Fish On"

NASHVILLE, Tenn– One of country music’s most influential voices, Randy Travis, releases his highly anticipated new single, “Fish On,” today! This original recording is the first off his upcoming album; it brings Randy's unmistakable and timeless voice back from the vault. Listen HERE. Fans can expect more music on the horizon...


We're going ocean to ocean and all points in between 

Headin' for some waters few have ever seen 

Rivers, lakes, streams, or bays, get ready, set, we're gone 

Any place we can find to wet a line is a good time 

Fish on

 

Originally written by Randy Travis and Ron Avis, “Fish On” brings his multi-generational, genre-defying, neo-traditional sound back to listeners, singing about his longtime love of fishing. This back-porch toe-tapping country song is perfect for a summer day and is rooted in nostalgia that will continue to bring fans back.


Kyle Lehning, his longtime producer, uncovered the track after years of it being locked away in the vault. He assembled, remixed, and remastered it to give the world more original Randy Travis music. This boot scootin' track brings back the GRAMMY-winning voice that the world fell in love with, continues to grow Randy's incomparable catalog, and showcases that his music endures the test of time.


“I wrote this song with my longtime bus driver and dear friend Ron Avis, and it’s incredibly special to me that it’s been found in the archives. Having my longtime producer, Kyle Lehning, do what he does best has made bringing it back to life even more meaningful. I’ve always loved fishing and country music, and being able to share this song so many years later means a great deal to me. There’s just no getting over the joy of sharing music with the people who’ve supported me through the years. It’s been an honor to share the love of country music with listeners of all ages for so many decades, and I feel truly blessed,” said Randy Travis, with help from his wife, Mary.


2026 marks 40 years since Randy’s debut multi-platinum album, Storms Of Life. This Fall, he will wrap his More Life Tour, which has toured over 54 cities and 24 states; the tour has reconnected Randy with fans across the country. It has touched tens of thousands of music lovers in a deeply personal way, further cementing his legacy as a living legend in country music. Tickets are available at randytravis.com.
