9513 interviewed Collin to preview his thoughts on the album.

JIM MALEC: I understand you have a new record coming out called Never Going Back. Tell me about that project.

COLLIN RAYE: It comes out on the 28th of April, and it’s my first with Time Life. It’s the first collection of all brand-new songs that I’ve done in four years. I’m really excited to have the opportunity to get to make a record at that level again, with a label that’s as big as Time Life.

And the great thing about Time Life is that they really know how to market what they make, through television and various other means. They are great at using avenues other than just radio to do everything. So I feel really good about it. The music is the best I’ve ever done. I believe it’s the most personal album I’ve ever made. How should I say this…it’s definitely the most “me.” That’s where the title comes from—there’s a song on the album that I wrote called “Never Going Back,” and the double meaning there is that I’ve turned a chapter in my life as a human and as an artist. The old guy, he was pretty cool and that was all good stuff. He had great fun. But I’m never going back there again. And I think the music says that. I have tremendous hopes for this record. I really feel like its time has come.
