<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nChris Bullinger<\/strong> has always had a traveler\u2019s heart\u2014restless, reflective, and prone to long sentences. But if his earlier work felt like a midnight walk through the mind, his new single \u201cI\u2019ll Be Goin\u2019 from Jackson<\/a>\u201d marks the moment he throws a duffel in the backseat and hits the gas. This is Bullinger in motion, and it\u2019s exhilarating to hear.<\/p>\n Gone are the hushed parlor tones of Waitin\u2019 To Be Seen<\/em>. In their place: brass swagger, a rolling rhythm section, and the humid ghosts of New Orleans nightlife. The track sounds like it\u2019s been marinating in gumbo and whiskey\u2014laid down at Marigny Studios with a dream team of NOLA players and the expert hand of Grammy-winner Rick G. Nelson.<\/p>\n Bullinger\u2019s lyricism remains intact. \u201cOver half the states have Jacksons,\u201d he croons, with that slow-smoked drawl. \u201cAnd Jackson is a state of mind.\u201d It\u2019s classic Bullinger: wry, rooted, yet chasing abstraction. But this time, it\u2019s carried by momentum, not introspection.<\/p>\n That\u2019s the surprise here. Bullinger has long been a poet in a songwriter\u2019s clothing, but Nowhere To Fall<\/em>\u2014his forthcoming album\u2014looks poised to be something looser, groovier, and even joyful. If Waitin\u2019 To Be Seen<\/em> was the rumination, Nowhere To Fall<\/em> is the release.<\/p>\n The single also nods to Bullinger\u2019s transition from corporate energy CEO to full-time troubadour. There\u2019s an unburdening happening. The man who once dwelled in the details is now giving himself over to groove, trusting the room, the band, the horn section. \u201cIt\u2019s about trust,\u201d he says. That trust is audible\u2014and it works.<\/p>\n What excites most is the promise of more. With new singles rolling out through late 2025, we\u2019re seeing an artist redefine his edges in real-time. In \u201cJackson,\u201d Bullinger steps forward, swings the door wide open and dances through it.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.chrisbullinger.com<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/chrisbullingermusic<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/chrisbullingersings<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@chrisbullingermusic<\/a><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/onstagemagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/unnamed.jpg\")
