(Stunt Company) Nashville-based, Oregon-born multi-platinum singer, songwriter, and producer Mat Kearney conjures warm indie folk on new single "Sumac". The song is the latest stunning track to drop ahead of Kearney's forthcoming new self-titled full-length studio album due out May 15th via Middle Kid Records.
"Sumac" was written by Kearney and The Brook and the Bluff's Joseph Settine, it was produced and engineered by Kearney and mixed by longtime collaborator and multi-platinum award winning mixer Robert Marvin (Kelly Clarkson, Julia Michaels, Ben Rector).
"Sumac" is the fourth single to precede the new album, which will be Kearney's first LP in more than three years. In addition to producing this latest single, Kearney took the production reins on several of the album tracks, while Micah Tawkls (Hayley Williams, Liza Anne, COIN), Marc Scibilia (Breland, Robin Schultz, Teddy Swims) and Mokita (Zac Brown Band, Demi Lovato, David Guetta) assisted with the rest. In addition, Settine's band The Brook and the Bluff played as the backing band on several of the album's tracks including last month's captivating and buoyant single "Palisades".
Along with news of the new album last month, Kearney announced a massive US headline tour that kicks off in June and continues in the fall with all the confirmed tour dates below.
