Sam Hunt) [Remix]” is now available at all digital music retailers and streaming services HERE. Upping the ante, BRELAND and Hunt have joined forces, starring in a visualizer for the track — watch now on BRELAND’s YouTube channel HERE.

Building on the original version’s gritty guitar work and hard-hitting beats, “My Truck (feat. Sam Hunt) [Remix]” further reveals BRELAND’s genre-bending ingenuity and supreme skill as a songwriter. In a perfect counterpart to the 24-year-old artist’s powerful vocals, multi-platinum-selling hitmaker Hunt turns in a soul-stirring performance showcasing the incredible range that’s earned him multiple Grammy Award nominations. The collaboration follows the release of Hunt’s chart-topping sophomore album SOUTHSIDE.

As noted by The New York Times, Hunt took notice of “how quickly and freely Breland improvised melodic lines” and for him “it was a rare opportunity to collaborate with someone who approached the country-rap divide from the other side.”

Seeing Hunt’s support as a stamp of approval, BRELAND shares “Sam is one of my favorite artists and a pioneer in country music. I couldn’t think of a more fitting artist to be on this type of genre-bending song. I think he brings an incredible energy to it!”

Since exploding onto the scene with the independent release of “My Truck” in late 2019, BRELAND has shown the tremendous depth of his talent, matching his massive appeal with tightly honed musicianship. Igniting a viral moment with over 520,000 TikTok visuals created to date, “My Truck” soon emerged as a worldwide smash, rising to #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 and US Viral 50 charts and landing on Spotify’s biggest country playlist “Hot Country” (5.7m followers).

Continuing the excitement, BRELAND’s debut EP is expected for release in May.

ABOUT BRELAND
Known as “The Pen Point Guard,” New Jersey-born BRELAND began writing songs as a teenager, inspired by such diverse sounds as gospel, R&B, and country music and artists as eclectic as the Beatles, Rascal Flatts, Prince, and Stevie Wonder (BRELAND’s number-one influence). While attending Georgetown University, he knocked on every possible industry door and eventually made his way into the music business as a co-writer, landing a number of high-profile cuts shortly after graduating. As he continued working on his own music, BRELAND posted “My Truck” on social media as a challenge to determine whether he could elicit 500 comments — an undertaking that soon led to the self-release of the track, which quickly proved to be a multi-platform hit. Along with paving the way for BRELAND’s signing to Bad Realm/Atlantic Records, “My Truck” sparked headline-worthy streaming success, including hitting #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 and US Viral 50 charts. Praised by Rolling Stone as “1,000 percent the whole package,” BRELAND has been featured in leading press outlets like Genius, Paper, USA TODAY and Billboard’s “Emerging Artists Spotlight.”
