Nashville, Tenn. (January 13, 2017) — Colton Dixon's third studio album Identity is set to release March 24, as announced yesterday on Billboard. Varying stylistically from previous releases, Identity will blend Dixon's traditional alternative-rock sound with pop elements, delivering a number of upbeat, danceable tracks.

"I think this is the most fun I've had making an album," Dixon told Billboard, who also exclusively premiered the lyric video for the album's debut single "All That Matters," available for purchase today. At radio now, key stations nationwide are jumping on the single, in addition to an immediate add by K-LOVE.
"Our identity isn't in our past or our careers. It’s not in our successes or failures,” Dixon said, sharing the heart behind the song. “Our identity lies in something much bigger than ourselves, and that’s what really counts.” 

Fans can hear Dixon perform the new single and more on tour with Winter Jam now through April.

Identity follows Dixon's latest release ANCHOR, which featured No. 1 hits "More Of You" and "Through All Of It," and earned a 2015 Dove Award for Rock/Contemporary Album of the Year.

Identity pre-order packages are available now

About Colton Dixon
Colton Dixon quickly became a household name in 2012 when he made it to the top seven on Season 11 of Fox's hit show AMERICAN IDOL, and his career has been on the fast track ever since. Dixon's 2013 debut, A Messenger, set the record for biggest first-week sales by a new solo Christian act, becoming the No. 1 selling album by a new Christian artist. In just a few short years, Dixon has already played live for more than 1 million fans, performing at festivals like Winter Jam and touring with acts such as Third Day, TobyMac and Britt Nicole. Dixon has also been named a Steinway & Sons artist, following in the footsteps of legendary artists such as Harry Connick, Jr. and Billy Joel. Dixon's sophomore effort ANCHOR includes the most played Hot AC single of 2014, “More Of You," which spent three weeks at No. 1, as well as "Through All of It," his fourth consecutive No. 1 at Hot AC Radio. In 2013, Dixon won a Dove Award for Best Rock/Contemporary Album Of The Year, along with two additional nominations. In 2015, ANCHOR was honored with the Dove Award for Rock/Contemporary Album of the Year. Dixon received back-to-back K-LOVE Fan Award nominations for Male Artist of the Year in 2014 and 2015. Dixon's third studio album Identity will be available March 24, 2017.
