Brandon Bing became the king of Heartland Soul in ‘When the Dust Settles’ –

There’s no mistaking the presence that Brandon Bing brings to the country rock scene. In When the Dust Settles, he took the crown as the king of heartland country soul. Pain, scorn and vindication echo through the guitar chords, amplifying the resolution that Bing delivers in the track that effortlessly captures the kind of rage that reverberates through every atom of your being once you realise you should have been waging war instead of submissively making peace in a toxic relationship.

With riffs that deliver blinding resolve, joining the easy Americana guitar chords and foot stompin’ melodies entwined with Bing’s ability to ensure every syllable in his infectious vocal delivery hits with a cadence that just makes you want to join him in the versing, we’re under no illusion that his talent is easily matched. He’s a rough-cut diamond in a sea of vapidly polished aural monotony. We’ve fallen a little bit more in love with him with each new release, and we’re sure that we’re not the only ones under his sonic spell.

Known for his gritty vocals, honest songwriting, and straight-from-the-soil storytelling, Bing uses When the Dust Settles to speak to anyone left in the aftermath of a love lost without warning. It’s a comeback anthem, born from silence, soaked in truth, and ready to make its mark on hearts and highways across the country.

When the Dust Settles is now available on all major streaming platforms. Find your preferred way to listen on Brandon Bing’s official website.
