BRETT KISSEL ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM LET YOUR HORSES RUN
NEW ALBUM OUT FEBRUARY 28 – PRE-SAVE HERE
STREAM “GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS TOWN” HERE
February 3, 2025 (Toronto, ON) – Multi-platinum, JUNO Award-winning country entertainer Brett Kissel teams up with breakout US country artist Don Louis on his latest single “Get The Hell Out Of This Town,” available now on all streaming platforms. The single comes on the heels of the announcement of Kissel’s forthcoming album Let Your Horses Run, due out February 28.
Southern country twang meets gritty rock edge in “Get The Hell Out Of This Town.” Kissel’s signature vocals bring undeniable passion to the lyrics, while Texan artist Don Louis adds depth with his dynamic performance.
“It was almost a year ago when my friend Austin, who co-wrote this song, played the demo for me in Nashville and I was blown away – I kept listening to it over and over again. I knew it was very different for me, but there was something about it that I just had to cut it,” Kissel shares. “It tells such a unique story. A few months later, we shared the song with Don Louis about a potential collab on it and he freaked out as well. It’s unlike anything I have ever recorded and I am so excited for everyone to hear it.”
LET YOUR HORSES RUN, A NEW CHAPTER
First introduced last spring with the release of the title track, Let Your Horses Run signals a creative shift in Brett Kissel’s music. The album pushes boundaries and showcases his evolution as a songwriter and performer. A blend of heartfelt storytelling and traditional country roots, the collection reflects Kissel’s artistic maturity and personal journey.
“It seems weird to say, but I feel like a different person on this album. Maybe it’s because I’m getting older and my priorities have changed,” Kissel reflects. “I’ve always been from the farm but I never really dove into the country lifestyle as much I have on this project and it feels so good. Let Your Horses Run is such a special song and it deserves to be part of a collection of songs that share the same values. It’s heartfelt, it’s fun, and it is really country.”
THE SIDE YOU’VE NEVER SEEN TOUR
Coinciding with the album, Kissel will embark on the second leg of The Side You’ve Never Seen tour, offering fans a rare, intimate experience. The acoustic setting will spotlight the craftsmanship and stories behind his music, giving audiences a deeper, more personal connection to his artistry – reflecting an entirely different side of Kissel that amplifies his newfound creative vision.
