Young will launch new tour in 2023
Multi-Platinum country hitmaker Brett Young releases “You Ain’t Here To Kiss Me (2022),” a new version of his heartfelt song. The updated version of the emotional track arrives just in time for the holidays, a season known for its nostalgic nature.
Produced by Dan Huff and written by Young, Tiffany Goss, and Matt Alderman, the track was inspired by a real situation between Young and now wife Taylor Mills, years prior to their marriage. The song tells the story of a narrator flying alone on New Year’s Eve, reflecting on his recent heartbreak. Never afraid to open up about his own experiences, Young’s track offers a new spin on the song, with stripped-down production allowing his rich vocals to shine. After Huff had encouraged Young to release a new version of the song, Young and BMLG Records moved forward with the idea, deciding to release the reflective song during the holidays, a time when many people often reflect on past relationships.
“I can be a very emotional songwriter and, for some reason, the sad, reflective songs, often come naturally for me,” Young shares. “The song is a true story about a situation my now wife and I had many years back – it just describes the feeling of missing someone and seeing everyone else around you in happy relationships. Dann Huff has been wanting to cut a new version of it for a while so we thought the timing was right to give it a bit of a new life around this coming New Year.”
Earlier this week, the “In Case You Didn’t Know” singer announced Brett Young: 5 Tour 3 2 1. Kicking off March 30th, he will hit the road for a slew of headlining shows, with Ashley Cooke and Morgan Evans serving as support. Produced by Live Nation, tickets will be available for purchase December 2nd starting at 10 am local time.
Young also recently announced a special limited run in Hawaii in 2023, which sold out in 24 hours and will be closing out the year with a handful of dates spanning across the US. Last month the country star completed his sold out tour across Europe.
