Charley Crockett shocked everyone on Tuesday, April 28th when at about 8:00 PM Central, he dropped a new 14-song album called Clovis<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, just three weeks after releasing his third and final album with major label Island Records, Age of the Ram<\/em>. Even for the prolific Charley Crockett, the turnaround time was pretty remarkable, and appeared to be intentional to in part undercut Island who was still promoting the previous album. <\/p> \u201cEvery time I find out I signed a deal I don\u2019t like, and I go to these fuckin\u2019 business people, and tell them I don\u2019t like the deal, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s fair, they say \u2018Tough luck kid, you shouldn\u2019t of fuckin\u2019 signed it.\u2019\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Charley Crockett said<\/a>.\u00a0\u201cAs soon as I hold them to that same standard, I\u2019m the fuckin\u2019 bad guy,\u201d (laughing).<\/em><\/p> Now all of that is up in the air as streaming service users in the United States and elsewhere noticed on Wednesday afternoon (5-6) that all the tracks on Clovis<\/em> were greyed out, if the album could be found at all. Those who downloaded it are patting themselves on the back at the moment, while some fans in other countries are still seeing it\u2014not uncommon when licensing or publishing issues come into play. It\u2019s certainly not out of the realm of possibility that Island Records wasn\u2019t too happy with Clovis<\/em> and Crockett\u2019s attitude, and found a stitch in the contract that forbids Crockett from releasing new music for a certain period of time, sort of like a recorded music radius clause. But this has not been confirmed. Since Crockett released Clovis<\/em> entirely by himself without a label, perhaps it\u2019s just some sort of technical snafu that needs to be resolved. <\/p> So far Crockett has not addressed the situation publicly, only posting<\/a> an image of the cover art earlier on Wednesday with the simple caption \u201cMy Way.\u201d <\/p> More information when more is known. But no, you\u2019re not being punk\u2019d by Spotify. Clovis<\/em> is currently a ghost. <\/p> \u00a0\u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013 \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you found this article valuable, consider leaving<\/em>\u00a0Saving Country Music A TIP<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>![\"\"](\"https:\/\/savingcountrymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/charley-crockett-clovis-1024x673.jpg\")
