On the heels of penning another #1 song, Luke Bryanâs âWaves,â songwriter and artist Ryan Hurd has just announced his debut album, Pelago, to be released October 15.
The project was inspired by Ryanâs upbringing on the shores of Lake Michigan, and was produced with his childhood friend and longtime collaborator Aaron Eshuis. Additional collaborators include Jesse Frasure (Thomas Rhett, Kane Brown, Little Big Town) and Teddy Reimer.
Fans are already familiar with the first single from the project, âChasing After You,â the first official duet with his wife Maren Morris.
They debuted the song at the 55th ACM Awards, and it is currently Top-15 (and climbing) at country radio.
In the past 2 months, Ryan has shared two more new tracks from Pelago, âCoast,â and âJune, July, August.â
Ryan is a familiar name in the world of Nashville songwriters, having penned songs like âSunrise, Sunburn, Sunsetâ and âWavesâ for Luke Bryan, âLonely Tonightâ for Blake Shelton, Lady Aâs âWhat If I Never Get Over You,â and âYou Look Good,â âHeartlessâ from Diplo (ft. Morgan Wallen), and Tim McGrawâs âLast Turn Home.â
