Brett Young has announced that his new record – Across the Sheets – will be released in August 2023.
Brett Young has uncovered plans for Across The Sheets, his highly-anticipated fourth studio album, to be released August 4 via BMLG Records. Young says the title of the eight-track album is a recurring theme throughout the lyrics the new songs, inspired by “the person you want to share everything with, the one you lay your head down with every night.” In celebration of the announcement, Brett released the brand-new track “Back To Jesus,” an up-tempo tune about faith and forgiveness and the person that is “an answer to a prayer I never prayed, and now somehow I have everything I never even knew I wanted.”
Across The Sheets is a compilation of new and old, kicking off with Brett’s newest swoon-worthy single, “Dance With You,” which is set to impact Country radio on Monday, June 26. The song earned Young his biggest week one streaming numbers to date and has garnered more than 23 million streams to date. In keeping with the theme of Across The Sheets, “Dance With You” honors his wife, Taylor – “They say, ‘life’s a dance,’ and if that’s the truth, I only wanna dance with you.”
The album also includes a fresh take on some familiar favourites, including a cover of the heartbreaking 1994 classic that inspired Brett to pursue a career in Country music, Tim McGraw’s “Don’t Take The Girl” and a re-record of one of the most beloved songs from his hit-filled self-titled debut album, “You Ain’t Here to Kiss Me.”
“I really dug deep with my writing over the pandemic. Across The Sheets is by far the most adventurous I’ve ever gotten thematically and lyrically. I hope people hear my evolution as a songwriter and artist because I’m really proud of how much I allowed myself to pull back the curtain and let people see more of my life through my music,” says Young. “We’ve been playing the new songs on tour and to see how fans have already connected with them is truly special.”
