Dierks Bentley really went all in with the creative process for his latest album, The Mountain.

This was the first time that the country singer took a more unconventional route for songwriting and recording. The whole process had a DIY feel to it. Bentley along with songwriter and producer Ross Copperman essentially created their own studio in Colorado to record the album.

“I think I learned from this record that you can come up with creative ideas and really go for them,” he said in a press event, reports The Boot. “[Recording this album], it ended up becoming, like, ‘How far can we push this thing before we’re told to rein it back in?’ Luckily, no one told us to rein it back in.”

One big takeaway from The Mountain’s recording process for Bentley was switching up the scenery. “Next record, we’ll probably look for another location to do it,” he added.
