  KELSEY HART - Life With You - Curb Records

Earlier this year, CURB Records recording artist Kelsey Hart further exploded onto the scene and raucously introduced himself to a wider scope of country music fans through his fun-loving, blue-collar anthem “Country In Business”.

Changing course and showing his artistic flexibility, the Central City, KY native is set to croon and swoon his way into hopeless romantics everywhere with the release of “Life With You”, available digitally and on all streaming platforms now.

Earning huge amounts of support on his social media platforms leading up to its release, “Life With You,” an unrequited ode to the love of a lifetime, has the potential to land on wedding playlists everywhere. Kelsey, himself, used this tune with his wife for their own first dance, and that trend has continued for others as it is gains momentum and notoriety.

Simply put, this is an unapologetic, down-to-earth, straight-from-the-heart love song to its core.  The lyrics are poetically beautifully as Kelsey expresses his unrelenting affection, admiration, and appreciation for the love of his life.  Anyone who is in love has ever been in love, or longs to fall in love can relate to and appreciate the integrity and vulnerability of the musical approach here, and Hart conveys the passion and emotion behind the song’s message effortlessly and honestly.

“I ain’t gonna be there just for the sunshine

I’ll hold your hand while we stand in the rain

I’ll be your forever and not just your sometimes

I’ll be your calm in a hurricane”

And while the melody and vibe, along with the heartwarming sentiment all take center stage on this track, what shouldn’t be overlooked is Kelsey’s vocal ability.  This guy can sing, and his range and control are on full display while the emotional impact of his pronunciation and vigor takes this song to the next level.  From the songwriting to the singing to the delivery, Hart is a unique talent who is still tapping into his seemingly unlimited potential.

While continuing to make a name for himself within the country music community as an established recording artist, Hart has been a highly-regarded songwriter almost immediately upon his arrival in Music City, penning cuts for Jake Owen and Trace Adkins, among others.  He, as an artist himself, has released five new tunes thus far in 2023.  “Life With You” follows “Country In Business” as well as previous fan-favorites “6-Pack Gone,” “Drink About Me,” and “4X4”.  A tentative date of May 2024 has been set for Kelsey’s new album, which promises to be one of the more highly-anticipated releases amongst fast-rising names in the country music mainstream.
