BRELAND serves up new single 'Heartbreak & Alcohol'
PLATINUM artist BRELAND is showing off his outside-the-box, genre-melding genius with the new single ‘Heartbreak & Alcohol’ (Bad Realm Records/Atlantic Records/Warner Music Nashville). Available across all digital platforms, listen here.
Marking the start of a fresh creative chapter, the swerving slow-groover nods to both country music’s most iconic themes while serving as an interpolation of one of the biggest hits in modern hip-hop. Inspired by Lil Wayne’s ‘Love Me’ (feat. Drake and Future), the track seamlessly pairs an intoxicating beat with a shot of devastation.
Produced by Peter Thomas, Sam Sumser, and Sean Small, the self-medicating stunner delivers the remedy for any emotional setting, and now follows the GOLD-certified CROSS COUNTRY album debut with his first new music of 2024.
"It's been a long journey for me blending country music with other genres, but one thing I always wanted to do is sample something from the hip-hop world," BRELAND explains. "Lil Wayne, Drake and Future absolutely nailed it the first time with 'Love Me,' and I'm hoping people appreciate the country spin I've put on it with 'Heartbreak and Alcohol'."
BRELAND is embarking on his LITTLE MORE COUNTRIER TOUR across the US this year, it follows a year of high profile touring in 2023 which included supporting Shania Twain’s QUEEN OF ME TOUR in the US and UK, and his headline THE EXTRA MILE TOUR, traveling across the UK and Europe.

ABOUT BRELAND:
Boundary-shattering, breakout star BRELAND is pushing the possibilities of country music on a global scale. Since the arrival of his PLATINUM-certified debut single ‘My Truck’, the New Jersey-bred singer/songwriter/producer has amassed over 1.1 BILLION career streams, brought his crowd-thrilling live show to an international headline tour, and gained acclaim from many of the world’s leading music publications (with Rolling Stone hailing him as “a symbol of country music’s ongoing evolution” and Billboard calling him a “keen, visionary solo artist”).
On his critically acclaimed 2022 debut album CROSS COUNTRY, the Bad Realm Records/Atlantic Records/Warner Music Nashville artist introduced a high-energy sound that blurs the barriers between country, pop, hip-hop, soul, and southern gospel, offering up smash hits like the GOLD-certified ‘Praise The Lord (feat. Thomas Rhett)’.
A blockbuster year for BRELAND, 2023 included such triumphs as teaming up with superstar Keith Urban to open the 16th annual Academy of Country Music Honours by performing their GOLD-certified collaboration ‘Throw It Back’ and — immediately following the performance — receiving the ACM Lift Every Voice Award, recognizing his role in “elevating underrepresented voices throughout the country music genre, transcending demographics and geography.” Released in September, CROSS COUNTRY: THE EXTRA MILE delivered a star-packed bonus version of his full-length debut, with the expanded album’s six fresh tracks including a brand-new feature with Brittney Spencer as well as live favourite ‘Cowboy Don’t’.
A truly magnetic live performer, BRELAND spent much of 2023 on the road as support for the legendary Shania Twain’s QUEEN OF ME TOUR in the US and UK. In addition to taking his THE EXTRA MILE TOUR across the UK and Europe, as well as graced the stage at major festivals like Stagecoach and C2C: Country to Country Festival, fulfilling his mission of uniting audience members from all walks of life with his wildly joyful music.
