Get ready, country music fans! Big Loud recording artist ERNEST is gearing up to release his much-awaited second album, “NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE,” this Friday, April 12. The excitement builds on the heels of ERNEST’s recent nominations for New Male Artist of the Year and Artist-Songwriter of the Year at the 2024 ACM Awards.
With 26 tracks packed with his signature style, this project, produced by longtime collaborator Joey Moi, promises to showcase the musical genius of one of today’s most influential country hitmakers.
In a nod to his roots and his musical journey, ERNEST pays homage to his hometown with the album’s title, “NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE.” This Friday, ERNEST will be featured on CBS Mornings from Nashville, where he’ll sit down with Jan Crawford for an in-depth profile on his latest musical endeavor. Following that, mark your calendars for April 16th, when ERNEST will make his national television performance debut on Live With Kelly and Mark. But the excitement doesn’t end there – catch ERNEST on The Kelly Clarkson Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live! later this month before he heads west to perform at California’s premier country festival, Stagecoach.
To celebrate the album release, ERNEST has planned an all-day fan event on April 12th. Fans can look forward to exclusive, limited-edition merchandise, giveaways from local vendors and brands, personal memorabilia from ERNEST’s career, and a special one-day-only pop-up show at 6th & Peabody, home of Ole Smoky Moonshine and Yee-Haw Brewing Co. It’s an opportunity you won’t want to miss!
ERNEST first teased the album’s arrival with a viral video campaign that took Nashville by storm. Since then, he’s dropped five additional tracks from the album, including collaborations with fellow Nashville-native Jelly Roll on ‘I Went To College / I Went To Jail,’ as well as standout tracks like ‘Ain’t As Easy,’ ‘How’d We Get Here,’ ‘Ain’t Too Late,’ and ‘Why Dallas’ featuring Lukas Nelson. These songs join previously released tracks ‘Kiss Of Death’ and ‘Slow Dancing In a Burning Room,’ which made waves last year during ERNEST’s headline performances at the historic Ryman Auditorium.
Don’t miss out on the musical event of the year as ERNEST unleashes “NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE” to the world this Friday! Stay tuned for more updates and surprises from this rising country star.
