Dan Alley Readies Debut Album For September

/by

Dan Alley will release his debut album, Keepin’ On, via River House Artists on Sept. 4.

The 11-track project, which explores themes of family, love and loss, was written alongside Neil Medley, Ryan Beaver, Kasey Tyndall and Sam Banks, among others and was produced by Lukas Scott. Alley solo-wrote five tracks on the project.

“Keepin’ On is the project I’ve wanted to make since moving to Nashville. These songs tell the story of my life – chasing a dream, heartbreak, falling in love, marriage, becoming a dad, getting sober, and learning how to make a living as a songwriter,” Alley shares. “The title track, ‘Keepin’ On,’ is a song I wrote early in my Nashville career. As soon as I wrote it, it changed my outlook on songwriting, and I knew it would be the title of an album someday.”

“My hope for this project is that down the road my kids will listen, and it might help them through a hard time or inspire them to chase their dreams,” he continues. “This album is a love letter to my family, a positive reminder to myself, and a thank you to everyone who has helped me keep on ‘Keepin’ On.’”

As a songwriter, Alley has earned cuts with Lainey Wilson, Jon Pardi, Drake Milligan, Braxton Keith and many more. He recently earned his second chart-topper with Hudson Westbrook’s “House Again,” following Luke Bryan’s “Country Song Came On.” On the charts now, Alley is a writer on Luke Combs’ fast-rising current single, “Be By You.”
