Southern California’s Robert Jon & The Wreck have unveiled their latest single, “Ashes in the Snow,” now available on all major digital platforms. Produced by Grammy-winning maestro Dave Cobb, whose collaborations include icons like Chris Stapleton and Brandi Carlile, the song captures the fragility of relationships and the power of love. Written alongside acclaimed songwriter H. Jack Williams, the track delves into the challenges of keeping love alive. “The simple message from ‘Ashes in the Snow’ is about keeping a relationship together and not letting it crumble or turn to ash, knowing that love is the most important thing,” explains frontman Robert Jon Burrison.
A Glimpse Into Their Upcoming Album
“Ashes in the Snow” offers a tantalising preview of Robert Jon & The Wreck’s highly anticipated 2025 album. Recorded at Cobb’s Savannah, Georgia studio, the song melds heartfelt lyrics with the band’s signature classic rock influences, drawing heavily from the soulful sounds of the 1970s. The track’s melodic slide guitars, lush keyboard layers, and three-part harmony vocals showcase both emotional depth and an epic, groove-driven arrangement that hints at the creative evolution of the band.
Guitarist Henry James recalls how the song came to life during a 2023 jam session with H. Jack Williams: “We took an idea Jack had and built on it. It was one of the first songs we prepared for our sessions with Dave Cobb. Dave brought a sense of spontaneity to the process, suggesting tweaks to the arrangement and even playing rhythm guitar, which features prominently in the track. The result is something fresh and exciting that we’re incredibly proud of.”
