About Kane Brown
Breakthrough artist Kane Brown is climbing the charts with the RIAA Gold-certified “Heaven,” the newest single from his self-titled Gold debut, which stands as country’s #1 best-selling new-artist album debut since 2014.
With a robust, devoted fan base of over 3.5 million social subscribers, the RCA Records/Zone 4 recording artist has garnered over 320 million on-demand streams and over 100 million YouTube and Vevo views. Released in December 2016, Kane Brown debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and Top 10 on the Billboard 200 all-genre chart and became the #4 best-selling new-artist album debut of 2016, in any genre. Kane Brown Deluxe Edition—a 15-song edition of his self-titled album—released in October of 2017, debuting at #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and Top 5 on the Billboard 200.
Brown became the first artist ever to be #1 on Billboard’s five main country charts simultaneously, including Top Country Albums; Country Digital Song Sales (with the #1 debuting “Heaven”); and Country Airplay, Hot Country Songs, and Country Streaming Songs (with the Double-Platinum smash “What Ifs” featuring Lauren Alaina, which also ranks as the #1 most-streamed country song of 2018). Brown earlier made chart history with the highest-debuting country EP of the Nielsen SoundScan era—2016’s Chapter 1—which featured the Platinum-certified “Used to Love You Sober,” the video for which earned a CMT Music Awards Breakthrough Video nomination. A past ACM Awards nominee as New Male Vocalist of the Year, the 24-year-old singer/songwriter has been the subject of press features in such outlets as The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, Billboard, People, US Weekly, Seventeen, Cosmopolitan, HITS, and Rolling Stone. Among his extensive TV appearances are NBC’s “Today” and “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” the nationally syndicated “Ellen” and “Entertainment Tonight,” CBS’ “Academy of Country Music Awards,” “Conan” (TBS), a 2017 “CMA Awards” (ABC) performance of “Heaven South” with Brad Paisley, the national debut of “Heaven” on ABC’s “Good Morning America” (December 6 and a New Year’s Day encore), performances of “What Ifs” on “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2018” (ABC) and the December CBS special “A Home for the Holidays,” and a musical guest appearance on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on February 12.
On tour with Jason Aldean in 2017, Brown sold out 92 headline shows of his own with over 141,000 tickets purchased and is currently opening for Chris Young’s Losing Sleep tour. Beyond his flourishing music career—and inspired by his personal experiences and a desire to lend his voice as a platform—Brown has partnered with Make Room, the nation’s leading organization addressing the rental housing crisis in the United States. Brown has also teamed up with State Farm® as part of the Neighborhood of Good® discussion, encouraging people to make a positive impact in their own neighborhood by finding a volunteer opportunity that’s right for them. www.kanebrownmusic.com
