Southern California’s Robert Jon & The Wreck are keeping the momentum alive with “I Wanna Give It,” the latest single from their album Heartbreaks & Last Goodbyes, out now via Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records. The track captures the band’s signature blend of heartfelt storytelling and road-tested rock-and-soul, wrapped in a wistful, country-leaning groove.
Co-written during a stretch when touring had come to a standstill, “I Wanna Give It” was born from late-night acoustic jam sessions on a porch in San Juan Capistrano. “It was a bit of a throwback,” says guitarist Henry James. “We’d play acoustic guitars into the early hours, doing whatever we could to keep our minds at ease.”
Written alongside longtime friends Ian Cullen and Shane Krevoy — who also co-wrote fan favorite “Oh Miss Carolina” — the song came to life under the production of Dave Cobb. The result is a warm, reflective track that channels both timeless Americana spirit and modern rock precision. “It doesn’t necessarily have a happy ending,” James says, “but it’s told with no regrets. Love can blind us sometimes, but it can also inspire us to live boldly. That’s something we all deserve to feel.”
“I Wanna Give It” follows a run of powerhouse singles that have defined Heartbreaks & Last Goodbyes: the smoldering “Keep Myself Clean,” the haunting “Dark Angel,” the swaggering “Better Of Me,” the electrifying “Highway,” and the reflective “Ashes in the Snow.” Recorded in Savannah, Georgia, with producer Dave Cobb and mixed by Greg Gordon (Chris Stapleton, Sturgill Simpson), the album showcases the band’s unmatched chemistry and expansive emotional range.
With Heartbreaks & Last Goodbyes out now on CD, digital platforms, and limited-edition colored vinyl, Robert Jon & The Wreck continue to push roots rock forward while honoring its timeless heart. For a band that thrives on connection, this record is a love letter to the journey itself — bold, soulful, and beautifully alive.
