UNCLE KRACKER UNVEILS BRAND-NEW ALBUM COFFEE & BEER

He’s been a musical fixture for more than two decades, and now, after a 12-year wait, the moment has finally arrived. MULTI-PLATINUM artist Uncle Kracker returns today with Coffee & Beer, his first new full-length album in more than a decade – listen here. Uncle Kracker’s new 13-track LP is available now on all digital streaming platforms via Sturgeon General Records. Much as he’s done over the course of his entire career, breaking down genre walls with his unique blend of Country, Pop and Rock with a dash of Hip Hop, Uncle Kracker stays true to his non-conformist roots on his latest LP.

Working once more with longtime collaborator and producer, Josh Bright, Uncle Kracker holds nothing back on Coffee & Beer, delivering on fan’s wishes that the project would be one of his most entertaining yet.  From “Sweet 16” pulling at your heartstrings to “Beach Chair” amping you up for a beachside rager, the singer-songwriter’s latest work is a must-listen for all moods and vibes. 

“These are strange times we are livin’ in," said Uncle Kracker. "Coffee & Beer is not a reflection of them. It’s an escape from this nonsense. And a cheers to something better coming."

Beginning with his solo debut, 2000’s Double Wide, and its PLATINUM single “Follow Me,” which hit No. 1 in four countries, Uncle Kracker has been on a quest to deliver the musical goods at every turn. In 2004, Uncle Kracker’s 2X PLATINUM “When the Sun Goes Down” [with Kenny Chesney] vaulted to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks Chart. He’s also released such classics as his lauded cover of Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away,” which logged 28 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on Adult Contemporary Radio. Following his most recent LP, 2012’s Country album Midnight Special, Uncle Kracker has delivered singles such as “Endlessly,” “Floatin’,” and “No Time To Be Sober.”

ABOUT UNCLE KRACKER:
Uncle Kracker knows what people want: to kick back, forget about their troubles, and have a good time. Naturally, he’s always willing to oblige. For over two decades, the MULTI-PLATINUM artist whom Fort Worth Magazine recently said “defies genre,” has consistently soundtracked such good times with his boldly breezy blend of Country, Pop, and Rock spiked with a splash of Hip Hop. First making his mark during his stint in Kid Rock’s Twisted Brown Trucker Band, lending his songwriting and musical acumen to seven cuts off the RIAA DIAMOND-certified Devil Without A Cause, Uncle Kracker was just getting started. It was his solo debut Double Wide in 2000, however that made him a star:  it not only crashed the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 at #7, but it also picked up a 2X PLATINUM  certification and paved the way for the GOLD-certified follow-up No Stranger To Shame [2002]. And while he has a slew of #1 entries on the charts – the PLATINUM “Follow Me,” the 2X PLATINUM  “When The Sun Goes Down” [with Kenny Chesney] and his cover of Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away” – it’s his “trademark laid-back vibe,” as the Atlanta Journal-Constitution recently coined it, that has fans clamoring for his next move. Right on cue, Uncle Kracker continues to create new music with a brand-new album Coffee & Beer coming July 12. Fans can catch Uncle Kracker on the road this summer with headline shows, festival appearances and on Kenny Chesney’s SUN GOES DOWN 2024 TOUR.
