Music News - Kaylee Bell Releases New Album 'Nights Like This' and Kicks Off National Tour
15 March 2024 - 0 Comments
On the back of the first show on her national tour last night in Tauranga, award winning country sensation Kaylee Bell today releases her new album Nights Like This, a thrilling country pop collision featuring a blend of previously released hits and brand-new offerings that showcase Bell's exceptional talent and diverse influences.
Recorded in the heart of country music, Nashville, by renowned producers Lindsay Rimes and Brandon Hood, the album is a testament to Bell's songwriting prowess, with credits on every track. Bell's melodies echo a catchy hit quality that transcends both country and commercial radio, making it a must-listen for fans of all genres.
The album caps off Bell’s most successful year to date to date, featuring a CMA Global Award, a Golden Guitar Award, a Top 20 radio single with Boots ‘n All, her Red EP being certified Gold in Australia and her 2019 single Keith charting on the US Billboard Country Charts and being certified Gold in Aotearoa.
This is the album for the fans and Bell is under no illusion that it’s her fans who she owes a great deal of gratitude to
“To be releasing music the way I want to do it and with a whole heap of new fans along for the ride is the best feeling. I’m so excited to have this full album out featuring my favourite songs I’ve ever written, and songs that have propelled me to a whole other level this past year is so exciting. We’re taking them on the road throughout New Zealand and Australia over the next few weeks and I can’t wait to share them live with all my fans” – Kaylee Bell
Album opener Take It To The Highway is the perfect stake in the ground to set the tone of the album. Written with Lindsay Rimes and Phil Barton (co writers of hit single Keith) it’s a power anthem of a song that also kicks off Bell's live show setting her up as a force to be reckoned with on the country scene.
A standout on the 11 track album is the poignant ballad Where Were You, where Bell unveils a softer, more vulnerable side of her vocal delivery. Drawing inspiration from 90's country ballad queens Trisha Yearwood and Faith Hill, Bell navigates emotional depths with grace and authenticity. Another one of the album's highlights is the stripped-back version of Bell's hit single Keith, following its unexpected resurgence on the US Billboard charts in late 2023 thanks to a viral moment on TikTok which saw the video of her performing it live for Keith Urban on The Voice Australia viewed over 23 million times. The organic growth of the track, now four years old, is a testament to Bell's undeniable talent and the unwavering support of her rapidly expanding fan base.
Nights Like This is a rollercoaster of hits that captures Bell's electrifying energy and spirit, mirroring her powerhouse performances on the international stage. The album is set to redefine the Country Pop landscape and solidify Kaylee Bell as a leading figure in the music industry.
Nights Like This is available now on CD, vinyl and digitally where you get your music.
