Mellencamp’s new album – written and produced by the artist himself at his own Belmont Mall Studios in Bloomington, Indiana – features three collaborations with Bruce Springsteen including the first album single “Wasted Days.”

“I worked on three songs on John’s album and I spent some time in Indiana with him,” Springsteen told Sirius XM’s E Street Radio IN 2021. “I love John a lot. He’s a great songwriter and I have become very close [with him] and had a lot of fun with him. I sang a little bit on his record.”

Strictly A One-Eyed Jack has been attracting highly positive reviews. The New Yorker said, “Mellencamp is a poet of ennui, making him an apt mouthpiece for our moment.” Forbes said, “Mellencamp is absolutely uncompromising and unyielding as an artist”, while The Associated Press declared that “Longtime fans of Mellencamp will find much to like on this new offering from the artist. Time spent listening will certainly not be wasted time.”
