Kameron Marlowe is gearing up for the release of his sophomore album Keepin’ The Lights On, set for May 31, and shared the title track and visualizer with fans today (March 15).
The 16-track collection features previously released singles “Quit You,” “Strangers (with Ella Langley)” and “Tennessee Don’t Mind.” Writers contributing to Keepin’ The Lights On include Kendell Marvel, Michael Hardy, Wyatt McCubbin, Trevor Rosen, Brad Tursi and Charles Kelley, among others.
“I feel like I discovered a lot about myself while making this record,” shares Marlowe. “I got to reflect on a lot of life from when I was a kid to life today. This album explores everything from loss to love, depression to joy, and overcoming the voices in your head telling you you’re not good enough. I found myself looking at life through a different lens throughout the process.
“The namesake of the album, ‘Keepin’ The Lights On’ came from a conversation with my dad over the holidays about how he’s always thanking the man upstairs for keeping it all together, especially when times get tough,” he continues. “For me, this record is a reminder of hard work, dedication and keeping the promises that we make. It’s still crazy to me that people are listening to a small town boy from Kannapolis, North Carolina, but here I am releasing my second album. I can’t wait for y’all to hear it.”
Marlowe will head down under with Lainey Wilson for her international tour next week, and share his new music on his headlining “Strangers Tour” in April.
