Brand New 13-Track Album 9 Lives<\/a><\/em> Out Now, Featuring Current Single ‘High Road<\/a>‘ with Jessie Murph<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Platinum-selling Texan singer-songwriter Koe Wetzel <\/strong>makes his way to the UK\/Europe for the first time this year, bringing his highly anticipated Damn Near Normal World Tour <\/em>to London, Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham, Leeds, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Berlin and Cologne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

“We started out nearly 10 years ago playing bars in Texas for tips and a case of beer, and have slowly seen that grow to sold-out venues across the U.S. as fans share the music,”<\/em> said Wetzel. “Bringing our tour to Europe is honestly hard to wrap my head around — we can’t wait to party with you all.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The string of shows follows the release of Wetzel’s brand new album 9 Lives<\/em><\/strong><\/a> <\/em><\/strong>last month, which debuted at No. 15 on the all-genre Billboard <\/em>200 and No. 5 on the Billboard<\/em> Top Country Albums chart (No. 2 among new releases, behind only the “Twisters” soundtrack), marking his fourth Top 10 entry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 Lives<\/em> features current single ‘High Road<\/a><\/strong>‘ with Jessie Murph<\/strong> (watch the official music video here<\/a>) and chart climber ‘Sweet Dreams<\/strong>‘. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We’ve been honing and growing a certain sound, and we’re hitting it: it’s what the people have been expecting from me, but we hadn’t gotten there yet,”<\/em> reflects Wetzel about the album that is resonating with fans in an unprecedented way. “This weekend we saw thousands of people singing the lyrics to every single song from the time we get onto that stage until we were done,” he marvels. “When you see that, you realize what you’re saying means something to people \u2013 and that’s more important than anything.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT KOE WETZEL:
<\/em><\/strong>Koe Wetzel never met a genre wall he couldn’t tear down: The Texas singer-songwriter has earned a rabid audience for his songs that mix country, rock, hip-hop, and even Nineties grunge. His 2016 album Noise Complaint<\/em> endeared him to fans with its no- holds-barred lyrics about drunken nights, broken hearts and stints in jail, and included the Gold-certified hits “Love” (feat. Parker McCollum), “Something to Talk About” and the infamous “February 28, 2016”. Wetzel’s 2020 major label debut, Sellout<\/em>, only furthered his legend with the Platinum-certified “Drunk Driving” and “Good Die Young” plus the Gold-certified “Kuntry & Wistern”. The 2022 follow-up, Hell Paso<\/em>, hit No. 3 on Billboard<\/em>‘s Country Albums and spawned hits on both the country and rock charts, including the Gold-certified “Creeps” and “Cabo”. To date, Wetzel has 2.8 billion total streams and has created a genuine experience with his live concerts, which he describes as “total chaos.” In 2023 alone, he sold more than 275,000 tickets, and appeared for a third time on POLLSTAR<\/em>‘s Top Worldwide Tours. Wetzel has played prominent festival sets this summer and opened for Morgan Wallen on the superstar’s One Night at a Time Stadium Tour<\/em> in Texas, while also headlining his own Damn Near Normal World Tour<\/em>, currently underway. His new album, 9 Lives <\/em>(Columbia), is available everywhere now as lead single “High<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
