ABOUT BRETT ELDREDGE
With his critically acclaimed fourth studio record, country superstar Brett Eldredge takes fans on an unforgettable outing with his new album Sunday Drive. Joined by GRAMMY-winning producers Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, he journeyed to Chicago’s intimate Shirk Studios, where the album came to life.

Having added a seventh Country radio No. 1 to his name with “Love Someone,” the critically acclaimed entertainer filled arenas on his first ever sold-out headlining The Long Way tour, which included performances of his Gold and Platinum-certified singles spanning four albums. His highly celebrated Christmas album Glow debuted at No. 2 on the country charts and featured the Billboard Adult Contemporary and Holiday Music Chart-topping duet “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” with Meghan Trainor. In 2016, the album inspired a single live holiday show in Nashville, which has now grown into the annual Glow LIVE holiday tour, hitting major cities across the country. He continues to bring holiday cheer with his new duet “Under The Mistletoe” with Kelly Clarkson and “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” (Latin Version) featuring Sofia Reyes, both available everywhere now.
