BRELAND KICKS OFF NEW CHAPTER WITH HIGH-ENERGY SINGLE “ICING”

PLATINUM artist/songwriter/producer BRELAND captures the joy of getting everything and more from a total romantic package on “Icing,” an up-tempo new single featuring all the ingredients of pure, unbridled energy - driving rhythm, dirty guitars and BRELAND’s unmatched vocal acrobatics. Out today (9/13) on all digital platforms, go here to stream/download “Icing” now.

Pairing 1000-watt charm and flirtatious, streetwise delivery with effortless swagger and bright harmony stacks – and even an exuberant scream – “Icing” embodies the rush of euphoria in its lyrics, co-written by BRELAND with Jared Griffin, Rufio Hooks, Autumn Buysse and produced by Sam Sumser, Sean Small, and Noby Sidez. The release has already seen praise from MusicRow's DISClaimer as, "[w]ildly entertaining. The rapid-fire lyric, interjected screams, finger snaps, relentless tempo and non-stop energy are the recipe for a frothing audio stew."

“I’ve always loved playing around on the periphery of Country music, and ‘Icing’ has all my favorite flavors of Southern Gospel with an old-school Soul flare,” shares BRELAND. “It was a simple concept – this woman has everything you could want; work ethic, faith, a good head on her shoulders, she’s even got a 401k. The fact that she’s got cake is just the icing. Once I hit that run at the end of the chorus, I knew I had to follow it up with a proper SCREAM, because this song is pure energy to me.”

Adding to the excitement, a special football-centric remix of “Icing” was featured as part of the season kickoff for CBS’ NFL Today network broadcast last Sunday (9/8). Written and recorded by BRELAND exclusively for CBS, the hard-hitting remix joins a video package with BRELAND and the hosts of NFL Today. Fans can also share the clip online via CBS’ NFL Today social media. Stay tuned this season for more specials songs and appearances from the “king of collabs” (AP).

A truly one-of-a-kind force on the Country scene, BRELAND is reshaping the genre’s future with his fearless originality and visionary sound. With over 1.2 BILLION career streams to date, the fast-rising global sensation first broke through with his PLATINUM-certified debut single “My Truck” and soon set off on an unstoppable rise that’s now included embarking on an international tour, collaborating with many of Country’s biggest superstars, and earning massive acclaim from major outlets like NPRThe New York Times, and Rolling Stone (who praised the New Jersey-bred singer/songwriter/producer for merging “elements of Country, Hip Hop, R&B, Gospel, and Pop — in a way that many have not experienced before”). With his catalog including his critically lauded debut album CROSS COUNTRY — a 2022 LP featuring smash hits like the GOLD-certified “Praise The Lord (feat. Thomas Rhett)” — the Bad Realm Records/Atlantic Records/Warner Music Nashville artist recently ushered in the next chapter of his career with his early-2024 single “Heartbreak & Alcohol.” Recently wrapping his headline LITTLE MORE COUNTRIER TOUR, BRELAND is now opening for Teddy Swims’ I’VE TRIED EVERYTHING BUT THERAPY TOUR. An unforgettably magnetic performer with stadium-sized appeal, the hitmaker has also brought his boundless charisma to an ever-growing list of high-profile TV appearances (including Good Morning AmericaJimmy Kimmel Live!, and TODAY) and in March 2024 performed the national anthem at the Big 12 Men's Basketball Championship in Kansas City. With his many accolades including winning the Academy of Country Music Lift Every Voice Award, BRELAND continues his mission of redefining the possibilities of Country and uniting fans from all walks of life.
