Born and raised here. Still a stranger.
The old church is gone. The high school's a mall. The skyline changes with the billboard signs. You drive the same streets you grew up on and none of them drive the same. You didn't leave home, but home left you.
"Hometown Immigrant" is the title track and first single from Jeremy Drinkwine's new album. It's about grieving a place that's still on the map, and about finding the people who feel it too. It was cut at Sound Emporium Studio B in Nashville with producer Eric Torres, and it's built on thick, dissonant guitars and an anthemic chorus for every misfit who never quite fit in.
On the inside. Still outsiders.
Pre-save it now, and welcome home, hometown immigrant...

Jeremy Drinkwine is a Nashville-based Americana and Heartland rock songwriter blending gritty storytelling with melodic, roots-driven energy. His songs explore fatherhood, the streets that raised him, loss, and chasing a dream later in life. A full-length album Hometown Immigrant is scheduled for release in late 2026.
James Dean is being re-released as part of a broader effort to re-center the Jeremy Drinkwine project around its original voice and intent. The song reflects themes of accountability, temptation, and earned perspective, and serves as a bridge into his forthcoming body of work, Hometown Immigrant.
