Brian Wright's sophomore effort for Sugar Hill is stacked with razor sharp portraits of heartbreak and hard times that stand up alongside any songwriter recent memory.

With his 2011 label debut hailed by No Depression as "perfect" and by American Songwriter as "brilliant," singer-songwriter/rock 'n' roll musician Brian Wright will unveil his new album, the highly anticipated Rattle Their Chains, on Sept. 10. The Waco, Tex., native and new Nashville resident will release his diverse new collection of plaintive ballads and rootsy rockers on Sugar Hill Records, which also released his last project, the wildly acclaimed House on Fire.
