In a genre defined by the credo “three chords and the truth,” Warner Music Nashville recording artist Brett Eldredge is about to set a new bar with his upcoming album, Songs About You. Candid in its approach and backed by a minimalistic soundscape, each of the 12 co-written songs finds Eldredge getting raw and unfiltered in a way rarely attempted in country music. The LP shines a light on themes like fear and desire, a public struggle with anxiety and his newfound appreciation for self-acceptance. And yet, despite the understated arrangements and live horns, the album’s defining characteristic is still Eldredge’s cavernous, signature vocal. Eldredge has been engaged in one of country’s most transformative evolutions since the 2020 release of his critically acclaimed 4th studio record, Sunday Drive, when he began consciously pushing beyond clever, rom-com country anthems. With help from GRAMMY-winning producers Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, Eldredge brought the album to life by leaning into vulnerability and pulling inspiration from his own personal experiences. He released the brand-new holiday album, Mr. Christmas, in 2021 following his highly celebrated debut Christmas album, Glow. With seven country radio No. 1’s, nine Gold and Platinum-certified singles, two Gold-certified albums and multiple CMA, ACM and CMT Music nominations and wins, the critically acclaimed entertainer regularly fills arenas nationwide with his powerhouse vocals and electrifying live performances.
