Kane Brown goes above and beyond on The High Road, continuing to challenge the perception of what country music is supposed to be. Guests include Brad Paisley, Khalid, Jelly Roll, and Marshmello.
Multi-platinum and five-time American Music Award-winning singer and songwriter Kane Brown is back to elevate country music with his highly anticipated fourth studio album, The High Road. With collaborations that carry deep personal meaning and a serious look inward, The High Road looks and sounds like it’s going to be his most defining album yet.
The album’s hit single, “Miles On It,” featuring Marshmello, has already made waves as Brown’s 12th No. 1 at country radio. It’s joined by tracks like “Backseat Driver” and the recently released “Gorgeous,” an acoustic ballad dedicated to his wife. With tender lyrics and stripped-down instrumentation, “Gorgeous” emphasizes the deeper connections that matter most, celebrating love at its core. This raw vulnerability builds on Brown’s reputation as an artist unafraid to explore what really matters to him in his songs.
Brown calls The High Road his “favorite album” to date, saying, “I get to explore all sides of my story and styles of my music. Every song is important to me, and every collaboration means something personal to me. I’m so incredibly proud of this record.” That sense of pride is evident in the album’s diverse range of tracks, mixing his signature country sound with touches of pop, R&B, and even electronic influences.
Since bursting onto the scene with his self-titled debut in 2016, Brown has helped redefine country music. His second album, Experiment (2018), became the first country sophomore release in over 24 years to top the Billboard 200, and he has consistently pushed the scene forward with exciting collaborations and groundbreaking achievements. Brown’s accolades also include being named one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People in the World.
