New Track “Glass” Out Now
NASHVILLE, TN (July 26, 2024) – Country/Pop maverick LECADE today releases his new song “Glass” via Big Machine Records. Chock full of clever metaphors and plays on words, “Glass” follows a heartbroken narrator who turns to the bottle to try to numb the lingering sting of a breakup. Learning the hard way that drinking to forget is a fool’s errand, he’s left with a hefty tab and a memory stronger than the whiskey.

“When I heard ‘Glass’ for the first time, I knew it was a song that I needed to record,” shares LECADE. “I’ve been there before, hurt and grasping for anything and everything that might distract me from looking that pain straight in the face. I hope ‘Glass’ makes people who might relate feel seen while also giving them a fun soundtrack to the summer that – unlike the painful memories I’m singing about – they’ll want to play again and again.”
LECADE is steadily building a catalog of self-reflective songs that speak to sadness, loss and often an admission of guilt for the situation he’s in. “Glass” is no exception, but offers a different, more Pop-infused and upbeat sound to his collection of songs. Written by Beau Bailey, Dylan Guthro and Jenn Schott and produced by Matt McVaney and LECADE’s frequent collaborator Austin Shawn, “Glass” is an irresistibly catchy breakup anthem made for summertime windows-down singalongs.
With more than 3M monthly listeners and 100M streams globally to date, LECADE is just getting started. He has been performing at festivals all across the country throughout the summer including Tailgate N’ Tallboys, Festival of the Bells and more.

ABOUT LECADE: Splitting his upbringing between Winfield, Louisiana and Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Cade Brinkley, better known as LECADE grew up watching his dad play in dives and legendary honky tonks (like Tootsies) across the south with his band. Falling in love with music at such an early age, LECADE began consuming music of all kinds before converting from an avid listener to a creator himself. In high school he began creating music in his bedroom by buying beats from YouTube creators and writing lyrics over them—which caught the attention of Nashville and TikTok alike. Now, the Country artist is determined to be the next to defy genres, successfully marrying Pop-Country with just enough Hip-Hop style. Averaging more than 3 million monthly listeners, he is growing his streams and has accumulated more than 100 million streams to date. With his unique, yet somehow familiar vibe, made for mainstream and outlaw Country fans alike, LECADE has produced his song “Next Town Over,” his popular single “When I’m Gone” and songs from his debut Country album, Chasing Ghosts. Now signed to Big Machine Records, LECADE is currently in the studio working on new music.
