COUNTRY: One to Watch
One to Watch: Brock Phillips
Dynamic singer-songwriter Brock Phillips has released his debut song “Something Else,” out via Local Hay Records. Leaning into his melodic sensibilities, Phillips explores a familiar, temporary relationship becoming more permanent.
“I went through over 200 songs and narrowed it down to one – ‘Something Else’ as the track to introduce myself with,” shares Phillips. “This is just the beginning!”
The song written by Phillips alongside Brad Clawson and Jacob Durrett was produced by Scott Cooke. An upbeat track with an electric guitar motif leading the way, “Something Else” hooks from the start. A classic pop country song with a unique storyline, the new track marks a strong start for the triple threat singer-songwriter / producer.
Signed to Local Hay Records and Big Loud Publishing, Phillips has been immersed in music all his life. Wearing many musical hats out of both passion and necessity, he began his journey studying music in high school before continuing to Berklee College of Music, where he began creating his own personal style and sound influenced by Chris Stapleton, John Mayer, Kings of Leon and Ariel Posen.
With more new music on the horizon, the Nashville-based artist is on tour with 3x consecutive CCMA Entertainer of the Year Dallas Smith, hitting 50+ dates throughout the fall.
