Zach John King is set to release his upcoming new EP, Slow Down, on May 23 via Sony Music Nashville. A new track from the project, “I Deserve A Heartbreak,” is out now.

The announcement of the new album follows the success of the EP’s title track, “Slow Down,” with the song racking up five million global streams as well as placements on Spotify’s Hot Country playlist and Apple Music’s Today’s Country playlist, among others.

“This EP is the first project this year where I finally feel like I’ve captured a full picture of who I am—both as a person and as an artist,” King shares. “Once you listen top to bottom, you’ll get the good and the bad sides of me—the heartbreaks, the love stories, my mistakes, the things I care about, and the person I’m still becoming. Every track holds a piece of my story, and my hope is that when people listen, they find a piece of their own story in it too. I’m so stoked to get it out to my fans and let them connect with it. Slow Down—the EP—is the most honest storytelling I’ve ever put to music, and whether people love it or hate it, I’m proud of what it represents. It’s vulnerable, real, and exactly where I’m at right now.”

King is hitting the road as an opener for Nate Smith’s “Through The Smoke Tour” and will continue touring with Vincent Mason on his “Hell Is A Dance Floor Tour” as well.
