Dylan Gossett to release debut album ‘Westward’ in July

Dylan Gossett will release his debut album ‘Westward' on 18th July 2025 via EMI.

The news follows Gossett's performances at C2C earlier this year. The album announcement is marked by the arrival of new single ‘American Trail', which you can hear below:

‘American Trail' is a warm, acoustic-driven country ballad that blends a message of perseverance with introspective lyrics and a soaring vocal. Gossett debuted the song live for the very first time this past weekend during his Stagecoach Festival debut, where he drew a packed crowd at his Palomino Stage evening set.

‘Westward' is Gossett's first full-length album and it features 17 tracks written over the past two years while he toured the globe. The set is produced by Gossett, who wrote the majority of the songs by himself.
