Brett Kissel Releases New Country Anthem "Get The Hell Out Of This Town" in Collaboration with Don Louis
Brett Kissel, the multi-award-winning Canadian country music sensation, has kicked off 2025 with a bang by releasing his latest single "Get The Hell Out Of This Town" in collaboration with breakout US country artist Don Louis on January 31, 2025. This high-energy country anthem collaboration brings together Kissel's signature vocals and Louis's dynamic charisma, creating a unique blend of southern country twang and gritty rock edge. The song is set to be included on Kissel's upcoming album "Let Your Horses Run," scheduled for release on February 28, 2025.
Kissel's musical journey began in Flat Lake, Alberta at the tender age of 12 when he released his first album "Keepin' It Country". Since then, Kissel has established himself as one of Canada's most celebrated country artists, with an impressive track record of 18 top-10 radio hits, including 4 number-one singles. Throughout his career, Kissel has garnered numerous accolades, including 22 Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) Awards and 3 JUNO Awards. His discography boasts two Gold-certified albums, four Platinum singles, and ten Gold singles.
Don Louis, a rising star in the country music scene, has been making waves with his unique blend of country, rock, hip-hop, and R&B. Born and raised on a 12-acre farm in Commerce, Texas, Louis's musical influences are diverse, ranging from country legends like George Strait, Waylon Jennings, and George Jones to contemporary artists such as Michael Jackson, The Weeknd, and Kanye West. This eclectic mix of inspirations is evident in his music, which he describes as "a new wave of country". His charismatic presence and distinctive baritone voice have earned him praise from various media outlets, with TODAY.com calling him a "game-changing artist." Louis's debut album under EMPIRE Records, "Liquor Talkin'," was released on August 23, 2024.
The origins of the new single "Get The Hell Out Of This Town" began when Kissel first heard the song; "my friend Austin, who co-wrote this song, played the demo for me in Nashville and I was blown away – I kept listening to it over and over again." A few months later, they shared it with Don Louis to explore the possibility of a collaboration. Louis was equally enthusiastic about the track, leading to their partnership on the single. Kissel expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, "It's unlike anything I have ever recorded and I am so excited for everyone to hear it".
In addition to "Get The Hell Out Of This Town," Kissel has been teasing fans with snippets of his upcoming album "Let Your Horses Run," including the title track which was released as a single in May 2024. This new project promises to open up a new chapter in Kissel's musical journey, with the artist sharing "I’ve always been from the farm but I never really dove into the country lifestyle as much I have on this project and it feels so good." The album is set to showcase Kissel's growth as an artist and his continued commitment to pushing the boundaries of the country genre.
