Josh Turner Releases New Song From Forthcoming Album, 'Heatin' Things Up'

MCA Nashville recording artist Josh Turner releases his new track today, “Heatin’ Things Up.”

Produced by Kenny Greenberg, the song was written by Marv Green, Luke Laird and Brice Long. This is the first release of Turner’s 10th studio album, which will be released later this year.

“Heatin’ Things Up” cranks up the romantic thermostat, fusing a red-hot fiddle and smoldering sway to a bottomless vocal intro. Says Turner, “This song was kind of in the same vein as [multi-Platinum hit] ‘Your Man,’ but musically, it’s just very interesting. I went to the studio to track the song and when the first pass was over, [bassist] Glenn Worf said, ‘My God, that first note felt like you just had a load of gravel dumped on you!’ I can’t wait to see how fans react to that live.”

Turner is on his Greatest Hits Tour throughout 2024 with tour dates spanning coast to coast. Ticket information can be found at https://joshturner.com/.
