Kane Brown announced today (Oct. 19) that he will be releasing his self-titled debut album on Dec. 2—just in time to pick it up for Christmas.
Kane, who got his start posting videos of cover and original songs on Facebook and YouTube, found success the non-traditional way. Amassing a fan base of more than 2 million followers, the Georgia native released his EP, Chapter 1, in March 2016, where it debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Country Album chart. He is currently enjoying the success of his latest single, “Thunder in the Rain,” which rocketed to the No. 1 spot on the iTunes Country chart thanks to his passionate fan base.
Kane co-penned seven tracks on his new album, which also features cuts penned by Chris Young and Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley. Kane is currently on the road as part of Florida Georgia Line’s 2016 Dig Your Roots Tour and will be headlining his own Ain’t No Stopping Us Now Tour with Monster Energy Outbreak this fall.
“It’s like a big family out there. We all hang out and have fun,” Kane told Nash Country Daily. “I did get a song from [Tyler and Brian] that they wrote out there on the road called ‘Hometown,’ which I’m super excited about. It might be my next released song, maybe.”
You can pre-order Kane’s album starting on Friday, Oct. 21, to receive the instant-grat track “Hometown.”
