Bleu Edmonson"s anxiously anticipated new album, The Future Ain"t What It Used To Be, features tracks that are decided more rocking than Bleu"s previous efforts. The new songs are a good showcase for his signature raspy vocal. Edmonson also approached his songwriting in a new way this time. "I wrote all the tracks so it is a very personal record to me. I am proud of this one. It is different than Lost Boy. I am in a different place in my life," Edmondson confides. "Dwight Baker and I were excited to go back in the studio. Everyone was predicting it would be hard to follow up Lost Boy. We never really thought about it that way. This record is its own thing. I am confident fans will find something to love in it ... .1 really do."
