Wind in the Wire is the eighth studio album released by American country music artist Randy Travis. It was released on August 17, 1993, by Warner Records. The album was made to accompany a television series also entitled Wind in the Wire. Two of the album's singles — "Cowboy Boogie" and the title track — entered the Billboard country music charts, peaking at #46 and #65, respectively, making this the first album of Travis's career not to produce any Top 40 hits in the United States.[1] "Cowboy Boogie", however, was a #10 on the RPM Country Tracks charts in Canada.

In addition, this album is also one of three albums not to be produced by Travis' longtime record producer, Kyle Lehning.
