Gearing up for what promises to be a massive year, Platinum-Certified and critically acclaimed singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Dylan Gossett returns today with a brand new single entitled ‘Like I Do‘ out now via EMI – listen HERE. It marks his first release of 2025 following a breakthrough year and heralds more music to come from the buzzing Austin, TX artist-to-watch.
‘Like I Do‘ hinges on softly strummed acoustic guitar accented by Gossett’s dynamic and raw vocals as he wonders, “Am I doing what I’m supposed to do? Do you remember it like I do?” The emotion crescendos and overflows in the form of a hummable guitar solo punctuated by bluesy bends.
Dylan Gossett has emerged as one of the brightest new stars in country music. In less than two years, he has notched over 750 million total streams. His breakout single ‘Coal‘ picked up a Platinum Certification in the United States, in addition to going Silver in the U.K., Platinum in Australia, 2x-Platinum in Canada, and 2x-Platinum in Ireland. The song marked his first entry on the Spotify U.S. Top 200 Chart, Billboard Hot 100 Chart, and U.K. Official Singles Chart Top 100. Not to mention, it broke into the Top 25 of the Billboard Country Digital Songs Chart and Top 5 of the Spotify Viral 50 U.S. and Global Charts. It’s no wonder major players such as Spotify and Amazon pegged him as an “Artist To Watch” in 2024, while Music Row named him among its “Next Big Thing Class of 2025 Artists.“
Selling over 72,000 tickets globally in 2024 alone, he continues his critically acclaimed “The Back 40 Tour” this spring across the U.S. and Canada—see the full list of tour dates below. Speaking to his global impact, he impressively took flight as one of the “Top 5 International Acts of 2024” as affirmed by ex-U.S. Consumption. Described as “one of country music’s most in-demand live draws” by Rolling Stone, he is canvasing the U.K. right now on Country 2 Country, has headlined Country 2 Country Berlin, and will grace the bill of the Stagecoach Festival for the first time on April 26th.
Capping off a monumental 2024, Gossett released his latest single ‘Tree Birds‘. Grammy.com praised Gossett, saying, “The rising Americana sensation employs the perfect amount of harmonica to properly communicate just how head over heels in love he is on the giddy track;” while Holler Country declared him “[a] frontrunner of this next generation of red dirt singer-songwriters,” and Country Chord proclaimed, “He is one of the most exciting voices in the genre today. He once again captures lighting in a bottle on ‘Tree Birds.'” Last autumn, Amazon Music also tapped Dylan to contribute ‘Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right (Amazon Music Original)‘.Plus, he was featured on the much-talked-about Twisters: The Album Soundtrack with his original song ‘Stronger Than A Storm‘. Not to mention, he delivered a showstopping rendition of “Coal” during ESPN’s College GameDay at his alma mater Texas A&M—watch a clip of his performance HERE.
