Southern Symphony is the second album by American country music singer Russell Dickerson. It was released on December 4, 2020, through Triple Tigers.
Content The album's lead single is "Love You Like I Used To". In addition to this song, a lyric video for "Never Get Old" was released on Vevo in advance of the album. Florida Georgia Line are a featured artist on "It's About Time".
Critical reception Rating it 3 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "Frivolity doesn't weigh heavily on Dickerson's mind, but Southern Symphony has a bright, shiny gloss that suggests it's a party. The production is so slick that the deeper emotions Dickerson attempts don't quite stick, yet the album is ingratiating due to his unassuming, friendly touch and its relentless smoothness".
