Koe Wetzel announced his sixth studio album 9 Lives a month ago. Now nearing its release, all eyes are on the most anticipated song among the album’s 13-song tracklist—”High Road.”
The lead single of his upcoming album “Damn Near Normal” and the title track “9 Lives” are already out and bringing appreciation for the Texas-based singer. Koe Wetzel last released his album Hell Paso in Sept. 2022 and has been busy curating something that transcends his usual style. Wetzel revealed that with his new album, he wants fans to know a different side to him.
The 31-year-old singer-songwriter gained stardom for fusing several genres with country music, including rock and grunge. Commenting on his upcoming album ahead of its release, Wetzel said, “9 Lives reveals a vulnerable side that people may not be used to hearing” (via Whiskey Ruff). He also released an album trailer featuring his nine personas on April 29 and previews of the songs.
