In the Night is the second studio album by Charley Crockett, released on Son of Davy through Field Day Records on June 6, 2016. The album would later be re-released twice with Crockett's signing to Thirty Tigers, once in 2019 and once in 2021.

Background

The album would start recording on December 29, 2015 at Billy Horton's, Fort Horton Studios, in Wyldwood, Texas. Crockett would go on record saying that he intentionally added a wide mix of the New Orleans, Dallas, and Austin sound he had come to learn over the course of his career on In the Night, now having the resources to explore that sound fully.[1][2][3]
