Rising country artist Tanner Usrey will release his new album, These Days, July 11 via Atlantic Records. He just released a new song, “Don’t Let Go (Hold Me Close),” in advance of the new project.

These Days was produced by Dave Cobb and recorded between Nashville’s historic RCA Studio A and Cobb’s studio in Savannah, and features Usrey’s most personal work to date. Across the 10 tracks, Usrey showcases his country-rock sound while delving into vulnerable topics like mental health struggles, relationships highs and lows, and his own self-reflections. The title track debuted alongside a video for the song earlier this year.

“Ever since I started recording music, I’ve wanted to make a record with Dave Cobb,” says Usrey. “He’s done some of my favorite albums by huge influences of mine like Whiskey Myers, Chris Stapleton, and of course Jason Isbell. Getting to see how Dave’s mind works and building this album with him was such a great experience, to say the least. I think this album captures the sound that I’ve been going for since I started, and really pushes my voice in a way that I haven’t before, which makes the band and I that much more excited to play it live.”

In celebration of the new music, Usrey will embark on his extensive “Bad Love Tour” this summer, which includes newly confirmed stops at New York’s Bowery Ballroom, Lexington’s The Burl, Athens’ 40 Watt Club, Charleston’s The Windjammer, Chicago’s Joe’s on Weed St., Minneapolis’ Varsity Theater, Milwaukee’s Vivarium and Pittsburgh’s Spirit Hall, among many others. He’ll also join Dylan Gossett and Cody Jinks for several dates this year.

Usrey has already amassed over 310 million streams to date, performed countless shows across the country, and had his songs featured in hit shows like Yellowstone and Landman.
