RYAN HURD SETS DEBUT ALBUM PELAGO FOR OCTOBER 15 (Audio & Video)
NEW TRACK “JUNE, JULY, AUGUST”
OUT TODAY + VIDEO
August 27, 2021 — Pelago, the debut album from rising country powerhouse Ryan Hurd, is set for release October 15 via Arista Nashville. A new track, “June, July, August,” debuts today—listen and pre-add/pre-save Pelago here.
I love this song “June July, August.” I’ve written a couple songs for Luke Bryan that ended up being hits, “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset” and “Waves.” And this was written with the same two guys that I wrote those songs with and just felt like it was time to keep one for me and I just think this song says endless summer better than any of the other ones I’ve written. So I hope you all love it.
I hope that when you hear this song “June, July August” that your summer never ends.
“June, July, August” follows the recently released “Coast” and “Chasing After You.” Hurd’s first official duet with his wife, Maren Morris, “Chasing After You” is currently in the top 15 and climbing at country radio. Hurd and Morris debuted the song on the 56th ACM Awards and recently performed on “Late Night with Seth Meyers”—watch here.
Pelago, inspired by Hurd’s upbringing on the shores of Lake Michigan, was produced with childhood friend and longtime creative partner Aaron Eshuis, with further contributions from Jesse Frasure (Thomas Rhett, Kane Brown, Little Big Town) and Teddy Reimer.
Hurd got his start in Nashville as a songwriter, penning Platinum hits and #1s for Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan, Lady A and Tim McGraw, among others. As an artist he’s released a series of EPs, spawning hits like the Platinum-certified “To a T” and earning more than 700 million streams to date. He’s garnered attention and praise from entertainment tastemakers including Esquire, GQ, Maxim, American Songwriter, Billboard, People, NBC’s “TODAY,” “CBS This Morning” and more.
