Nashville artist & Texas native Erin Kinsey is releasing her most vulnerable track to date — the powerful & heartbreaking “Always Never,” out everywhere today. Fans can also watch her poignant visualizer video for the new song HERE.
You were always saying the right thing, just never saying what you really mean
Always had a leaving tendency, just never thought you’d be leaving me
Six years, two months day three – it was always never meant to be
Knew you well enough to know what you need, it was always never going to be me
Co-written by Kinsey with songwriting heavyweights Sarah Buxton and Josh Kerr, the song comes just as Erin is putting the finishing touches on her forthcoming brand-new EP Bet My Heart, due to release May 19 on RECORDS Nashville. The new project features songs all written by Kinsey, and includes “Always Never” along with previously released favorites, “Vegas” and “Boys In Boots.”
“This project is one that really wraps up so many feelings I’ve had since my first EP – the good, the great, and the difficult,” confides Kinsey. “’40 East’ features so many fun songs that I’m still very proud of, but in hindsight, it’s felt like maybe I left some things out. ‘Bet My Heart’ shows all of my angles, and in such an honest way, that I wasn’t able to lean in half way. Even though it might have saved me from some heart break along the way, there’s no reward like the one when betting it all actually works out!”
Bet My Heart follows her critically-acclaimed debut EP 40 East, which she released last year, just before making her Grand Ole Opry debut in April. Fans can pre-save Kinsey’s Bet My Heart EP HERE.
Erin may be a country music newcomer, but she’s been hard at work since she was 11 years old. Now 22, she is the epitome of a 10-year overnight success who has established herself as a Nashville singer-songwriter with a bright future ahead of her. Having moved from Texas to Tennessee the morning after her high school graduation, Kinsey quickly immersed herself in country music, and in return she was embraced by music insiders who’ve helped her reach her larger-than-life goals.
Erin consistently receives close to ten million views when she posts an original song on TikTok, where she’s amassed nearly a quarter million active followers. Erin has accumulated over 66 million streams across her catalog to date.
