New York, NY – 5th March 2024 – Nashville-based, Oregon-born multi-platinum singer, songwriter, and producer Mat Kearney is excited to announce the May 17th release of his new self-titled studio album via Middle Kid Records. The new LP is Kearney’s first in more than three years and was produced by Kearney with help from Micah Tawkls (Hayley WilliamsLiza AnneCOIN) and Marc Scibilia (BrelandRobin SchultzTeddy Swims). Along with the album news today Kearney is announcing a massive US headline tour and releasing the captivating and buoyant new single “Palisades” – listen HERE. Produced by Kearney and Tawkls and featuring The Brook and the Bluff as his backing band, Kearney had this to share about the song, “Someone once told me as a young musician ‘enjoy it now cause you can only start a journey once.’ I look back at some pinnacle moments and realize they were lost on me at the time. That feeling of leaving home and being in the middle of a highlight reel, is what ‘Palisades’ sounds like to me where the journey is the destination.”

“Palisades” is the third single to be released ahead of his self-titled new studio album, following “Headlights Home” – which was released in January accompanied by an official music video – watch HERE – and “Good Thing Going On” released in February with an official visualizer, watch HERE. Written and recorded over the past couple of years with the help of some talented friends, Kearney counts this new album as one of his most personal releases and sees it as a reflection of his two-decade long career.

It’s time I let you in on the secret of what I’ve been working on for the last 2 years. My self-titled ‘Mat Kearney’ record is coming out May 17th. I got a text from my long-time band member Phil Moore saying, ‘this record feels the most like the guy I’ve been hanging out with for the last 10 years.’ I think that sums it up. I wanted to make something honest, warm, raw, that felt like a big hug, the soundtrack for a drive into mountains, and beach hang with friends. I spread my wings and took on more of the production. Some songs I did start to finish alone. I also collaborated in ways I haven’t before. My favorite Nashville band The Brook and The Bluff played on a handful of songs. It was the first time I felt like I was in a band. I tried to keep it simple. Real instruments and honest performances, like how I started out. I keep playing this record in my car which isn’t normal for me once I complete a project. I hope that’s a good sign and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Love, Mat
