CHASE RICE SHARES NEW AUSTRALIAN SINGLE ‘FIRESIDE’ FOLLOWING HIS APPEARANCE AT CMC ROCKS 2024
Follows Rice’s first Top 5 on the Countrytown Hot 50 chart
Chart-topping singer/songwriter, Chase Rice, who made his highly anticipated return to Australia in March to play CMC Rocks has shared his new Australian radio single, ‘Fireside’ today (May 13). The song, which was released last Friday, May 10th, was written by Rice together with Jackson Dean, Oscar Gnaedig and Jonathan Sherwood. ‘Fireside’ is another taste of Rice’s evolving sound to reflect the realities of his life and continues the theme of “not only what got me here today but who did.”
Commenting on the release, Chase shared ” My last album was the start of a whole new creative life for me. A lot of people ask if my next one will be similar, the short answer is yes. This next album for me will be a bit of a continuation to close out this new process of how I write songs and record them. This is just the very beginning of my next full album, which to me is another level up from the Cowboys record.”
The new music serves as a follow up to his 2023 album I Hate Cowboys & All Dogs Go To Hell which contains Chase’s first Top 5 on the Countrytown Hot 50 chart ‘Walk That Easy’, and his three-part project, The Album, featuring his Platinum-certified US No. 1 hit, ‘Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen. (feat. Florida Georgia Line)’ and Platinum-certified US Top 10 hit ‘Lonely If You Are’.
Rice’s sophomore album Lambs & Lions, featured the Triple Platinum, two-week chart topper ‘Eyes On You’ – hit first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career. Lambs & Lions followed Platinum-certified Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; Platinum-certified ‘Gonna Wanna Tonight’ and Double Platinum ‘Ready Set Roll’.
