But after that, it&#8217;s safe to say we&#8217;ve done two complete laps around the United States and all over Europe, it&#8217;s probably time to get in the studio and make some new music\u2026 and then turn around and do it all over again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-paragraph paragraph css-50tlrn\" data-og-block-area=\"article-blocks\" data-og-block-nth=\"4\" data-og-block-type=\"core\/paragraph\" data-rawhtml=\"1\">\n<p>Simpson has previously explained his decision to adopt the Johnny Blue Skies persona as a way to separate his artistic vision from the commodified version of himself as a celebrity. &#8220;Sturgill served his purpose,&#8221; <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gq.com\/story\/sturgill-simpson-walked-away-from-music-johnny-blue-skies-is-just-getting-started\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Simpson says,<\/a> &#8220;but he&#8217;s dead, he&#8217;s gone, and I&#8217;m definitely not that guy anymore.&#8221; He describes Johnny Blue Skies as a mythological hero ushering in a new era of love and light, leaving much open to fan interpretation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-paragraph paragraph css-50tlrn\" data-og-block-area=\"article-blocks\" data-og-block-nth=\"5\" data-og-block-type=\"core\/paragraph\" data-rawhtml=\"1\">\n<p>The timing of this cryptic social media post comes just weeks before Simpson&#8217;s highly anticipated performance at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Sept. 17. With Simpson and his team now formally recording in the studio, fans are nervously awaiting any developments that could be related to new music or a tour announcement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-paragraph paragraph css-50tlrn\" data-og-block-area=\"article-blocks\" data-og-block-nth=\"6\" data-og-block-type=\"core\/paragraph\" data-rawhtml=\"1\">\n<p>This most recent news is also key because it&#8217;s the first thing Simpson has recently returned to social media after deleting his accounts.
