Tyler Braden, the country-rocker making waves at Warner Music Nashville, is capturing the spotlight with his commanding new anthem ‘Devil You Know,’ out today. Originally posted on TikTok on January 13, the song’s explosive popularity has earned over two million views in just two weeks, with subsequent social media posts amassing over 11 million total views.
The fervour and fortitude of ‘Devil You Know’ have struck a chord with fans, who have responded with nearly 7,000 videos in tribute. The song, written by Sam Martinez, Graham Barham, Zack Dyer, and Jon Robert Hall, is making waves in the country music scene.
Braden expresses his pride in the single, stating, “This is probably the proudest I’ve been to be part of a single because it’s a song that so many people can get behind wholeheartedly. It’s a song about confidence and not backing down. It’s a song about not allowing yourself to be underestimated or taken for granted. It’s a song I’ll be proud to perform live for years to come. Thank you to the writers Jon, Zack, Graham, and Sam – double thanks to Sam – for helping bring this song to life in a way that only progresses me as an artist. Thank you to the fans, new and old, for making ‘Devil I Know’ what it is before it even fully saw the light of day!”
‘Devil You Know’ follows Braden’s standout track ‘Friends,’ currently climbing the charts on SiriusXM The Highway. Billboard praised the song, stating, “his dusty, acid-fueled rendering conveys all the sarcasm, pain, and bewilderment of the song’s essence, further heightened by rock-propelled production.”
Braden continues to carve his own path in the country music industry, blending emotional lyrics with a plugged-in grit. His previous projects, “What Do They Know” (listen HERE) and “Neon Grave” (listen HERE), have garnered over 260 million global streams.
Earlier this month, the Alabama native announced his headlining Real Friends Tour 2024 (tickets HERE). Known for his hard-rocking energy and gritty vocals, Braden played over 100 dates last year alongside country superstars such as Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley, and Brooks & Dunn. Now, he is gearing up for 17 shows across the United States and back-to-back performances in Australia for the world-famous CMC Rocks QLD music festival.
