Recently, Eady released "Always a Woman" alongside an interview with Billboard.
Noisey premiered the album opener "Calaveras County" and described the album as having "...a cohesive sound that feels weighted with meaning" while Rolling Stone Country named it one of the Top 10 Country & Americana Songs of the Week.

With his catalog spanning from blues-infused Americana to bare-bones reimagining of classic country, Eady's seventh full-length takes on a looser, livelier, more groove-driven sound than ever before. But while I Travel On brims with a feel-good spontaneity, the Fort Worth-based artist continues to instill each song with the subtle insight and emotional depth that makes his music so powerful.
In another departure from his previous work, Eady wrote most of I Travel On in a month-long burst of creativity. "Normally I take my pick of the songs I've come up with since the last album, but this time I was writing specifically for this record," he says. "And because the album's so groove-centered, I focused on the way words rolled off the tongue and how they moved with the music. If something felt good to sing, I just let it be instead of going back and editing myself like I might've done in the past."
Eady's self-titled 2017 release was embraced by Rolling Stone, Wide Open Country,Saving Country Music and Noisey, who called the album "A self-titled 10-song collection of classic, heart-wrenching, delicate country."
