New Releases category interest

Having tapped into a new creative well celebrated by Billboard as “one of 2023’s most unexpected artistic pivots” on his critically acclaimed album I Hate Cowboys andamp; All Dogs Go To Hell, Chase Rice is prepared to get even more vulnerable on his forthcoming project. One of country music’s few Diamond-certified songwriters, he debuts the first preview of what’s to come this Friday, May 10 with “Fireside,” available for pre-order / pre-save HERE.
 
Penned by Rice alongside Jonathan Sherwood, Jackson Dean and producer Oscar Charles, “Fireside” offers a propulsive guitar-driven anthem embracing fiery passion and the intoxicating power of a relationship, with the single art paying tribute to the love story of his own parents. The song marks the first release from Rice off a forthcoming independent album expected later this year. 
 
“The I Hate Cowboys album was a huge turning point for me,” reflects Rice. “I felt like a decade into this career, I finally discovered who I was and what I wanted to say – and a lot of that came out of me stepping back from the grind of Music Row, sitting alone with a guitar to write those songs. I found that I could be much more vulnerable that way and tap into some real-life, personal topics I’d never covered in my music before. 
 
“As I started to work on this next project and continued down that path with out-of-town writing retreats in places like Montana, Alabama, Boston and Carolina, it felt important that it be an independent release coming straight from me. I’m sharing a lot of my real life on these songs and I can’t wait to see how that resonates with people in their own lives.”
 
While Rice still excels at creating music that thrills his sold-out live audiences, I Hate Cowboys pushed him to do so at a higher level, with Billboard noting, “the music is still propulsive with arena-ready moments, but is laced with deeper, more introspective themes” and Forbes declaring, “his latest album shows a deeper, more reflective Chase Rice than we’ve seen in the past… a full-circle, career defining journey for Rice, as both a singer and a songwriter.”
 
He brings the new song to the Grand Ole Opry next Tuesday, May 14 ahead of joining Dierks Bentley’s Gravel andamp; Gold Tour visiting arenas and amphitheaters nationwide from June through September in addition to prominent sets at major festivals including Tailgate N’ Tallboys, Summerfest, Windy City Smokeout and more.
