BRAXTON KEITH HAS THE “PRESCRIPTION” FOR A HURTING HONKY TONK HEART THIS FRIDAY, 9/26

This Friday (9/26), neo-traditional country artist Braxton Keith is set to release his latest track, “Prescription.” The song was written by Keith along with Randy Montana and John Pierce.

“‘Prescription’ is a honky tonk heartache tale of love lost and the only cure being the one who left. It’s the kind of song you feel in your chest, like a fever that won’t break until they come back.”

Recently appointed as one of Nashville Briefing’s 25 Artists to Watch in 2025, Keith was also named to Dickel Whiskey’s Class of 25 earlier this summer. He was selected as one of the “fresh faces…paving the way for the genre’s future” alongside fellow country music peers Kaitlin Butts and Tyler Halverson. Talking with Rolling Stone about the partnership, he explained his process of taking inspiration from the legacy acts on whom he was raised, with the outlet praising his music as “country gold for the modern age.”

Last year, Keith released his debut EP, Blue, featuring a selection of songs that Rolling Stone regarded as “hardcore, traditional country music” and Billboard lauded as “a slab of stone-cold country…forged from the depths of the Texas honky-tonk circuit, [which] highlights Keith’s unmistakable, conversational singing style.” American Songwriter is also decidedly a fan, declaring: “With his smoky baritone and aching ballads and mids, Braxton Keith marries crooning with Texas twang to recall the neo-traditional stars of decades passed.”

Keith, part of a new generation of country singer-songwriters leading a revival of its core creative tenets, is slated to headline over 130 shows this year, in addition to supporting artists like Cody Johnson, Gavin Adcock, and Luke Bryan on the road. He’s also been out on the road for his “This Ain’t My First Tour,” headline tour, visiting various cities across the country through the rest of the year.
