NeverAlways - Volume 2
The Band Camino
NeverAlways (Vol. 2) is the fourth studio album from Nashville pop-rock trio The Band Camino — Jeffery Jordan (vocals/guitar), Spencer Stewart (vocals/guitar), and Garrison Burgess (drums) — released May 22, 2026 via Atlantic Records. The 11-track, 40-minute record is the second half of a double album project, completing the NeverAlways world that began with Vol. 1 in July 2025. As the band shared on the day of release, most of the 22 songs across both volumes were written in the fall of 2024, and it quickly became clear the material was destined for a double album format — with each volume designed to tell its own story individually while connecting as one cohesive whole. Singles "Holly!," "Afterthought," "12:34," and "Do What You Gotta Do" all feature here, alongside closing track "What's Always Been," which fades seamlessly into Vol. 1's opening track "Has Just Begun," completing the loop.
Sonically, Crave Music Magazine describes the album as a continuation of the band's signature blend of catchy guitar riffs, lush synth layers, and a fresh yet nostalgic mix of indie-pop, rock, and electro-pop, while leaning into something new: emotional contradiction. The album navigates past regret, imposter syndrome, romantic hope, self-sabotage, and the confusion of growing up, turning messy emotions into what the review calls "passionate, cathartic pop-rock moments." Melodic Magazine notes the record hits punchier and faster-paced than Vol. 1, with pop-punk textures surfacing in "Holly!" and "Mascara," and standout "Do What You Gotta Do" drawing comparisons to earlier Band Camino catalogue. The closing trio of "Never and Always," "What's Always Been," and the overarching thematic arc of the full double album make NeverAlways (Vol. 2) feel less like a standalone release and most rewarding when heard as the conclusion to a two-part project two years in the making.
