New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The Austin, TX singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Dylan Gossett drops his new single entitled "Tree Birds," out now.
"Tree Birds" marks the latest release from one of this year's fastest-rising country stars. On the song, harmonica echoes over softly strummed acoustic guitar, as Dylan's emotional vocal delivery takes hold during the heavenly hook, "You remind me that there's something up above. Do I deserve all your love? I swear I don't. When you need me, just know that I'll show up. Oh I'll go anywhere, state, city, or town. I promise you're the best damn thing from the South."
Gossett shares,"'Tree Birds' is a song that we've been playing live at our shows for quite some time now. It has a lot of Texas Country roots. I went in and tracked it with the band to try to capture the energy of the live performances."
Over the past year, the critically-acclaimed artist has skyrocketed to the forefront of country music. His breakout hit single "Coal" has amassed over 322 million global streams and Platinum Certifications in Australia, Canada, and Ireland. Not to mention, it notably cracked the Spotify Top 200, Billboard Hot 100, UK Official Singles Chart Top 100, Top 25 on the BillboardCountry Digital Songs Chart, and Top 5 on the Spotify Viral 50 US and Global Charts.
In honoUr of Country Music Month, Amazon Music recently tapped Dylan to contribute "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right (Amazon Music Original)," out now. He also was featured on the much-talked-about Twisters: The AlbumSoundtrack with his original song "Stronger Than A Storm." Closing out a busy summer, he delivered a showstopping rendition of "Coal" during ESPN's College GameDay at his alma mater Texas A&M.

Dylan Gossett is a 25-year-old singer-songwriter from Austin, Texas. Gossett began writing and recording music during his early teen years using Garage Band on his mother's computer. Throughout high school, college at Texas A&M, and a job at Formula 1 Racing, music remained Gossett's true passion. Inspired to finally release music by a new generation of singer-songwriters he saw emerging online, Dylan began posting videos of his songs in April 2023 — immediately, his music struck a chord with a global audience.
Gossett released his first single "To Be Free" (entirely self-written, recorded, produced, and mixed in his bedroom) in June 2023. Shortly thereafter, he teased a snippet of what would become his next song and breakout viral hit "Coal." The video instantly took off, gaining over one million views within the first week. He quickly got back into his bedroom and created the song from scratch before releasing it in July 2023. Since its release, "Coal" has garnered over 322 million global streams, received Platinum Certifications in Australia, Canada and Ireland, debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. and the Official Singles Chart Top 100 in the U.K., reached the Top Five on the Country Radio Chart in Australia, and climbed the Spotify U.S. Top 200. The New York Times called "Coal" "one of the year's best country songs," and Billboard declared, "'Coal' and 'To Be Free' position Gossett as a formidable, heart-on-his-sleeve singer-songwriter with immense potential."
In October 2023, Gossett released his highly anticipated debut EP No Better Time (also self-written, recorded, produced, and mixed in his bedroom) via Big Loud Texas / Mercury Records. The EP received a slew of critical acclaim from The New York Times, Billboard, Grammy.com, Atwood Magazine, MusicRow, Holler, Country Central, and more. He then followed it up with his widely praised 2024 EP, Songs In The Gravel, which he wrote and self-produced, while also teaming up with notable producers Eddie Spear and Ian Fitchuk on a few tracks. On the touring front, this fall he will embark on his headlining The Back 40 Tour. Last spring, his first-ever headline (and international) tour, dubbed the No Better Time Tour, sold-out immediately upon on-sale. Gossett has supported Noah Kahan in arenas across Australia, and MorganWallen at Houston's Minute Maid Park, as well as opened for Wyatt Flores and Brent Cobb on their fall 2023 tours. This year, Gossett's festival trek includes debuts at SXSW, CMA Fest, Hangout Music Festival, Tortuga Music Festival, Two Step Inn Festival, and more.
