Singer-songwriter Lecade has signed with Big Machine Records. He has released a taste of new music to come with the brand-new track “Next Town Over.”
Written by Jacob Durrett, Gavin Lucas, Andrew Stoelzing and Geoff Warburton and produced by Austin Shawn, “Next Town Over” is a small town breakup song that contemplates what’s new with an ex and what their new—and maybe better—life is like now.
The 20-year-old has never been north of Tennessee, and was heavily influenced by his small-town southern surroundings and back roads. Lecade originally gained attention on TikTok and his music is influenced by a variety of artists including Machine Gun Kelly, Kid LaRoy, Drake, Tim McGraw, Johnny Cash and his own father, who performs at dive bars and legendary honky tonks like Tootsies.
“I am very proud to announce the addition of Lecade to the Big Machine!” shares Big Machine Label Group Founder and CEO Scott Borchetta. “His unique approach to songwriting and recording is on the sharp edge of what’s happening in real time.”
“I’m super excited to be a part of Big Machine team they have such an outstanding track record with breaking new artists, I can’t wait to see what we accomplish together,” says Lecade. “I’m excited for people to hear ‘Next Town Over,’ I hope y’all guys enjoy it.”
