Uncle Kracker returns with ‘Coffee & Beer’

It’s the singer-songwriter’s first new LP in 12 years

More than two decades after the world first met and fell in love with him, the multi-platinum artist Uncle Kracker returns with Coffee & Beer, his first new full-length album in 12 years. Uncle Kracker’s new 13-track LP is set to arrive on July 12th via Sturgeon General Records. For more than two decades, Uncle Kracker has defied convention, serving up one genre-busting hit after another. His amalgamation of country, pop, and rock with a dash of hip-hop flair has led to seminal smash hits soundtracking feel-good moments for millions of his dedicated fans.

Reteaming on Coffee & Beer with longtime collaborator and producer, Josh Bright, Uncle Kracker offers up a diverse and endlessly entertaining set of songs this go-round. Whether the tender and cinematic “Sweet 16,” the chill, mellow, and laid-back “Beach Chair” or the slick swagger of “Life Goes On” the singer-songwriter’s new music is both inimitable and decidedly his flavor.

Fans have already been treated to a taste of what’s to come on Coffee & Beer: Uncle Kracker has given listeners an early preview of the album with a string of song releases from it, including “Sweet 16,” “Reason To Drink,” “Cruising Altitude” and “Beach Chair,” which was released last week (5/24)– listen here. All four songs from the new album are currently available to stream.

“I’m so stoked to finally be releasing this project that I’ve been working on for a while,” explains Uncle Kracker. “I wanted to give my fans a soundtrack to summer and what’s better than the balance of first coffee…then beer? Coffee & Beer is going to be a fun one. Cheers!”

Accompanying the thrilling news of his new album, the official music video for “Beach Chair” is available. Centered on an epic Uncle Kracker-led beachside throwdown, the “Beach Chair” video is precisely what you need to get the party started.

Directed by The Manning Brothers and filmed just outside Nashville at Montgomery Bell State Park, the “Beach Chair” video is classic Uncle Kracker: free-wheeling, fearless, and rowdy. It’s nearly impossible to watch this quintessential beach party music video and not get amped up about what’s to come this summer.

Speaking of summer, fans will have numerous incredible opportunities to catch Uncle Kracker performing his new material. In addition to a slew of headline shows, and festival appearances, Uncle Kracker is bringing stadium-sized performances on Kenny Chesney’s Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour.
