Listen to the new album from superstar Kane Brown.
Global superstar Kane Brown has released his highly anticipated new album, The High Road, via Sony Music Nashville. The bold body of work serves as a reflection of his evolution as an artist, blending creative expression with personal connections that bridge the past and what he looks toward in the future.
Through the eighteen personal and unapologetic tracks, Brown brings forth his most meaningful project to date. Conceived over two years and amidst constant touring that found the boundary-pushing artist traversing around the world, the project illustrates the journey through his ever growing career while focusing on his refusal to compromise his personal growth with his new music.
Through carefully crafted songwriting, Kane unveils a new side of his artistry with thoughtful storytelling as well as carefully curated collaborations that span across genres and generations. The album finds Brown teaming up with Brad Paisley for self-reflection, “Things We Quit,” rejoining with Khalid for the R&B infused “Rescue,” as well as “Haunted,” with Jelly Roll, the vulnerable nod to their journey with their own mental health. In addition to these ground-breaking collaborations, Kane teams up once again with wife, Katelyn Brown on two tracks, the previously released sultry “Body Talk” and emotional yet deeply personal ballad, “Do Us Apart.”
Of the record, Kane previously shared, “This album, The High Road, is my favorite album I’ve ever made. I get to explore all sides of my story and styles of my music. Every song is important to me and every collaboration means something personal to me. I’m so incredibly proud of this record.”
Written while on tour in Europe in 2023, Brown also shared the official music video for his collaboration with Jelly Roll on the album, “Haunted” today. The raw and honest video which was also filmed over the course of 2024 and early 2025, displays both Brown and Jelly Roll’s internal struggles of battling mental health and the emotional tension of being alone with one's thoughts throughout the process of healing and confronting inner demons.
Eager to hit the road following his acclaimed In The Air Tour, Brown is gearing up to deliver electrifying live performances on The High Road Tour this year which kicks off on March 13 in San Diego, CA and includes newly added dates in Lake Tahoe on June 26, Southaven, MS on July 25, and the Lake of the Ozarks on July 26. With no signs of slowing down, Brown’s immeasurable success continues to grow as he reaches new heights and continues to expand his musical influence. Tickets and more information available here.
