Country music legend Willie Nelson, 91, set to release a special album with his youngest son Micah

Willie Nelson is set to release a special album with his youngest son, Micah, with the duo bonding through music while working on their special project.

The 91-year-old Always On My Mind hitmaker has a total of seven children. However, it seems that Micah, 34, is the one who is looking to follow in his dad's musical footsteps. 

In the past few months, the father-son duo have been collaborating on the album, which is set to be released on November 1. 

The album is titled Last Leaf on the Tree and sees Micah producing it as well as playing various instruments. 

Although Willie and Micah were already extremely close, the pair seems to have taken their relationship to the next level after spending hours in the studio at work.

According to Saving Country Music, the album is set to include original songs from Willie as well as other artists.

Micah produced the project and had a huge part in the song selection process. 

The 34-year-old told the outlet that he took a 'sculptor's approach' to their project, before noting that he and his father have worked extremely hard on the album. 

He said: 'It's an approach that I really love and have used a lot over the years—just throwing the clay down and stepping back, then maybe adding a little more, and then maybe shaving down here, and kind of building the tracks that way.' 

Musician and composer Tom Waits as well as Neil Young contributed songs to the album.

Meanwhile, Micah added the song Wheels. As for Willie, he gives listeners a flash back to the past by re-recording the hit The Ghost, which he first wrote in 1962. 

The father-son musical duo put their talents together and collaborated on the song The Color of Sound.

Willie's son reportedly plays more than two dozen instruments on the album including, guitars, pianos and 'sticks and branches and logs and dead leaves.'

In June, Willie sat out of the opening dates of his Outlaw Music Festival Tour after his team announced he was 'not feeling well.'

'We regret to inform you that Willie Nelson is not feeling well and, per doctor's orders, has been advised to rest for the next four days,' the Grammy Award winner's team wrote in the statement.

'He is expected to make a quick recovery and join the Outlaw Music Festival tour next week. In the meantime, Lukas Nelson and the Family Band, along with a few guests, will perform a special set to include Willie's classics and other songs.'

Bob Dylan, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss and Celisse performed at the festival as scheduled.

The Outlaw Music Fest Tour is set to wrap up September 20 in Gilford, New Hampshire.

Willie previously had to cancel his 2019 tour with Krauss, 52, as he announced 'a breathing problem' he had to have treated.

The cannabis connoisseur revealed later that year that he gave up smoking weed following the health scare.
