Tanner Usrey heeft de invloeden uit zijn jeugd gekneed tot een rauwe en tijdloze sound. Vocaal doet hij soms denken aan Chris Stapleton en Matt Andersen omwille van de soul die erin sluipt. Zijn songs werden al opgepikt door televisieseries als Yellowstone en Landman. In 2023 verscheen zijn debuutalbum Crossing Lines.
With You stond reeds op zijn SÕL Sessions EP uit 2021 en heeft nu een opfrissing gekregen. Iets meer schwung, een zalige slide en vette Hammond erbij en bakken soul. Zowaar een knipoog richting Lynyrd Skynyrd en het immens populaire Whiskey Meyers. Met de productie van zijn nieuwe album in handen van Dave Cobb, kan het gewoon niet mis gaan.
These Days verschijnt op 11 juli 2025 via Atlantic Records.

Of the track, Usrey shares, “‘With You’ is one of those songs that’s always stayed close to me. I first released it on my SÕL Sessions EP in 2021, but since then, the way we play this song has changed a lot and it’s become a staple in the live show. It’s always been a song that I really believed in, so I wanted to properly re-record and release it as a single to give it the life I felt like it always deserved. Lyrically, it’s about when the dust settles after an argument and all you really want is to hold the person you love and make things right. I think we nailed that feeling in the studio, and this new version sounds exactly how I always wanted it to.”
With his raw energy and timeless sound, Usrey is quickly becoming a standout in country music. Continuing to garner widespread attention, he has amassed over 310 million streams to date, performed countless shows across the country, had his songs featured in hit shows like “Yellowstone” and “Landman,” and released his full-length debut album, Crossing Lines, in 2023. Of the record, Whiskey Riff declares, “Tanner Usrey is a star on the brink of shooting across the sky…The gritty southern rock and roll sound combined with his Texas red dirt roots and earnest songwriting is a combo that absolutely rips,” while Holler calls it a “vivid, all-encompassing and, most notably, distinct album.”
