New York, NY – 5th April 2024 – Nashville-based, Oregon-born multi-platinum singer, songwriter, and producer Mat Kearney conjures warm indie folk on new single “Sumac” –– listen HERE. The song is the latest stunning track to drop ahead of Kearney’s forthcoming new self-titled full-length studio album due out May 15th via Middle Kid Records. “Sumac” was written by Kearney and The Brook and the Bluff’s Joseph Settine, it was produced and engineered by Kearney and mixed by longtime collaborator and multi-platinum award winning mixer Robert Marvin (Kelly ClarksonJulia MichaelsBen Rector).

“Sumac” is the fourth single to precede the new album, which will be Kearney’s first LP in more than three years. In addition to producing this latest single, Kearney took the production reins on several of the album tracks, while Micah Tawkls (Hayley WilliamsLiza AnneCOIN), Marc Scibilia (BrelandRobin SchultzTeddy Swims) and Mokita (Zac Brown BandDemi LovatoDavid Guetta) assisted with the rest. In addition, Settine’s band The Brook and the Bluff played as the backing band on several of the album’s tracks including last month’s captivating and buoyant single “Palisades” – watch video HERE. “Sumac” and “Palisades” join “Headlights Home” – released in January with an official music video – watch HERE – and “Good Thing Going On” released in February with an official visualizer, watch HERE. Kearney, who wrote the new LP over the past two years with the help of some talented friends, counts this album as one of his most personal yet and sees it as a reflection of his two-decade long career.
