Kameron Marlowe shares his rendition of “Burning House,” out now, November 22nd on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
Throughout the last few years, an artist we have continuously had our eyes on was Kameron Marlowe. Marlowe continues to up the ante with each and every song he releases. Each of his songs showcase his humanity and his talent as a singer and as a songwriter. He is one of the most authentic artists to come out of the country genre in a long time. Today, Marlowe pays tribute to artist, Cam, reimagining her beautiful song, “Burning House.”
Co-written by Cam along with Tyler Johnson and Jeff Bhasker, the song was inspired by a dream that she had about attempting to rescue her boyfriend from a house that was on fire. While the original song was beautiful, Marlowe does an incredible job breathing new life into the song. “Burning House” almost feels as if it was tailor-made for the artist.
“I had a dream about a burning house // You were stuck inside, I couldn’t get you out // I laid beside you and pulled you close // And then the two of us went up in smoke // Love isn’t all that it seems, I did you wrong // I”ll stay here with you until this dream is gone // I’ve been sleepwalking, been wandering all night // Trying to take what’ lost and broke and make it right // I’ve been sleepwalking too close to the fire // But it’s the only place that I can hold you tight // In this burning house”
We look forward to seeing what 2025 has in store for Marlowe. 2024 marked an incredible year for the the entertainer, and we are sure 2025 will be even better.

Kameron Marlowe shares album, Keepin’ The Lights On, out now, May 31st, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new project below.
With a powerfully deep baritone that immediately grabs a listener’s attention, Kameron Marlowe is ready to make a statement. His sophomore album, Keepin’ The Lights On, is the followup to 2022’s We Were Cowboys, and it’s truly a jump forward in musicianship, lyrics, and subject matter.
Produced by Dann Huff, the collection features 16 new songs, 7 of which were co-penned by Marlowe. “When I was thinking about this project, I really wanted to say something beyond break-up songs and love songs,” shares the North Carolina native. “I wanted to throw life songs in there as well. These are all real things that I’ve gone through, and there’s a lot of pain, there’s a lot of love. It really tells the story of these past two years.”
One such moment comes in the form of the poignant, “I Can Run,” which finds the singer-songwriter trying to outrun his vices. Here, he’s at his lowest, admitting that “I can’t outrun myself,” as he returns to his sense of self. “I had some low spots, and I had to find myself again,” Marlowe says. “And it felt like I lived every word to that song,”
Equally poignant is “On My Way Out,” which finds the Columbia Nashville artist grappling with his own mortality and what life will be like at its end. Here, he stretches himself vocally, his passionate voice soaring above the music in what may be his best performance on the album.
“And I hope the road to heaven is backed up to my hometown // And I get to hug the ones I love on my last lap around // I wanna redo all the regrets and relive all the times // I took for granted in this good Lord-handed life of mine // Yeah, only God knows when // Yeah, but there ain’t no doubt // That’s how I wanna make my way in…On my way out”
“Never Really Know” was a turning point for the artist when making the album. “That song fired me up so much, because it was so personal and so special, and something that I hadn’t written before,” he says of the song that reminds us not to think we know what’s going on in other’s lives. “That really started shaping this album to be what it was. It’s almost a folky kind of production, which really made the lyrics shine and made you want to keep listening to the story — that was a challenging thing to do, but probably the most rewarding once we finally got it right.”
There are fun moments here, including the roaring album opener “911,” which is a 90’s-tinted stomper, perfect for a honky tonk. Likewise, “Lock Me Up” is a swampy and gritty ode to his hometown, that he cleverly compares to a prison. “Don’t ever set me free, lock me up in a small town,” He growls. “Yeah, throw away the key.”
Marlowe examines new love on songs like the romantic “Leaning On You,” the ethereal “Quit You,” and the Marc Broussard-esque “Nothin’ Slowin’ Us Down.” While the latter is a bluesy and sexy midtempo, “Will It Be There in the Morning” is a stunningly sweet and sparse ballad. The song starts with his emotive voice over a lone acoustic guitar before building into a musical love letter, punctuated with gorgeous female background vocals. “Will it be there in the morning or will we just get this one night?” He asks, voice laced with hope. “Either way I’m gonna love you, like it’s my first and my last time”
Of “Quit You,” Marlowe reveals that it was somewhat of a bridge between a current and previous relationship. “I wanted to start ‘Quit You’ by rehashing that, because ‘Quit You’ is the ending chapter of that book for me. I finally found the love that I was looking for. People get hopeless about relationships and stuff like that, and I was that way, too — I thought I was hopeless, but then my fiancée came along, so I wanted to make sure that I included that piece by using those same lines.”
That heartbreak is evident on songs like “One That I Don’t Call,” “High Hopes,” “Smaller,” and “Strangers.” On “One That I Don’t Call,” he’s desperate to wipe someone’s number from his mind, singing “I know I should forget it, ‘Cause we don’t talk at all, I know that number pretty well for one that I don’t call.” Likewise, “High Hopes” is a moving ballad that has him optimistic but realistic about moving on after a breakup. “I’ve got high hopes but low expectations, my glass is half empty and that old county station is playing our songs and it’s hurting just right,” He croons. “I’ve got low expectations but my hopes are high.”
“Strangers” with Ella Langley is a surefire hit, exemplifying the classic country duet as the pair trades verses over their shared heartbreak and the fact that they’re bad for each other.
“We can’t be friends, we can’t be lovers // We can’t be weekend drinking, leaning on each another // We can’t be falling off the wagon // Talking ’bout what happened // Where does that leave you and me? // There’s too much love // There’s too much anger // We can’t be friends and we can’t be strangers // We can’t be strangers”
While many artists save filler tracks for the latter half of the album, there’s none of that here as Marlowe shines on “Broke Down in a Truck” and the LP’s title track, “Keepin’ The Lights On.” While the former is your atypical truck song, written like a love letter to his trusty vehicle for all it’s seen him through, the latter is a sparse ballad about all of the sacrifices his family made while he was growing up and those he makes to pursue his dream.
“My family was never rich, we’ve always just made it by,” he shares of his inspiration for the tune. “And for the first time ever, I saw my dad kind of be humbled when he lost his job of almost 20 years working in a magnet factory. He came to me and was like, ‘Man, I really don’t know how I’m gonna keep the lights on.’”
While Kameron Marlowe may have been through a lot to find his way to his sophomore album, the offering is a solid mix of introspection, love, heartbreak, and hope that is sure to be keeping the lights on brightly for years to come.

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “On My Way Out,” out now, May 3rd, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
Throughout the last few years, an artist we have continuously had our eyes on was Kameron Marlowe. Marlowe continues to up the ante with each and every song he releases. Each of his songs showcase his humanity and his talent as a singer and as a songwriter. As we await Marlowe’s next studio album, Keeping’ The Lights On, releasing on 5/31, the singer is sharing another taste of the record. His new song, “On My Way Out” is out now.
Written by heavy-hitters, HARDY, Ben Johnson, Hunter Phelps, Taylor Phillips, and Bobby Pinson, “On My Way Out” is a beautiful ode to the important things in life. The story unfolds as an introspective ballad about the road to heaven. Marlowe’s voice feels soothing and honest through the song, making him the perfect person to bring this beautiful story to light.
“On my way out // When it’s my time to go // I hope the road to get there goes by my old fishing hole // I hope the one that broke my line // Is still swimming around // ‘Cause Id’ like to try him one more time // And on my way out // I hope it’s no time soon // But when it comes, I pray it comes on a Friday afternoon // Yeah I hope coach whoever lets me line up behind the line // And take a snap, step back, throw a slant pass one more time”
“On My Way Out” is one of the sixteen songs on Marlowe’s upcoming record. So far, every release has been impressive, and we are looking forward to the full project!

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “Keepin’ The Lights On,” out now, March 15th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
Throughout the last few years, an artist we have continuously had our eyes on was Kameron Marlowe. Marlowe continues to up the ante with each and every song he releases. Each of his songs showcase his humanity and his talent as a singer and as a songwriter. Today, the singer officially announces his brand new studio album, Keeping’ The Lights On, releasing on 5/31. In conjunction with the album news, Marlowe also dropped the album’s title track.
“This song is incredibly personal to me. Growing up, my parents did more than enough to provide for my family, and there was a time I witnessed my dad’s humility after losing his job. I went over there one night and we were talking about everything and he said ‘I just don’t know how we’re going to keep the lights on.’ It really resonated with me, and that was the inspiration behind the title,” shared Marlowe about the song and project. “It’s a testament to their continued sacrifices and my dedication to remaining authentic in this crazy business. As the album title and closing track, ‘Keepin’ The Lights On’ embodies the promise I made to always tell the truth and remain true to myself instead of chasing the bright lights.”
The album will feature sixteen songs that all speak to the singer’s experience thus far over the last couple of years. The single, “Keepin’ The Lights On” is a beautiful ode to life and to his family, feeling like a warm hug and a truthful prayer all at the same time.

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “Quit You,” out now, February 23rd, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
Kameron Marlowe is one of the most exciting rising artists in country music right now. He recently debuted his killer collaboration with Ella Langley called “Strangers.” Today, Marlowe is surprising fans with another brand new song called “Quit You.”
Penned by Marlowe with James McNair and John Pierce, “Quit You” is a beautiful ballad dedicated to Marlowe’s fiancé. Much like the singer’s hit song, “Giving You Up,” the song touches on all the beautiful and honest qualities of Marlowe’s music. On “Quit You,” the listener gets to hear how the singer gave up his vices in favor of fully embracing the lifestyle that allowed him to find the love of his life.
“Yeah, I’m addicted to every side of you // There ain’t no going back // Baby, who could quit you // Baby, who in their right mind could put you down // ‘Cause I ain’t ever had your kinda high // Who could ever go and tell you goodbye // Baby, who could quit you // ‘Cause I can’t put you down // Put you down”
“Quit You” is an incredibly impressive song. It showcases solid songwriting and heart, which is very important in a good country song. Marlowe continues to show his star power with each and every release. “Quit You” is no different.

Rising stars, Kameron Marlowe and Ella Langley are forces in their own right. While the collaboration might be unexpected to some, Marlowe and Langley prove that their voices gel together effortlessly. Their new duet, “Strangers” will leave you speechless and reeling from just one listen.
“Strangers” kicked off with Marlowe singing the first verse. He sets the scene of what it is like to be in the midst of a break-up. Soon there after, Langley’s harmonies come on line, and it brings a beautiful push-pull to the dynamics of the song and the story. “Strangers” conveys all the confusing feelings that we are often left with after a break-up. Both Marlowe and Langley bring their a-game vocals to agonizingly beautiful song.
“We can’t be friends // We can’t be lovers // We can’t be weekend drinking, leaning on each other // We can’t ‘be falling off the wagon // Talking ’bout what happened // Where does that leave you and me // There’s too much love // There’s too much anger // We can’t be friends // And we can’t be strangers // We can’t be strangers”
While Marlowe and Langley may not have been a collaboration we expected, the song is one of the best duets we have heard in a long time. “Strangers” is a must-listen to!

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “Tennessee Don’t Mind,” out now, November 3rd, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
Kameron Marlowe is one of the most exciting rising artists in country music right now. With each and every release, he showcases his talent, his charisma, and his star power. Today, the singer-songwriter adds another song to his growing catalog called, “Tennessee Don’t Mind.”
“Tennessee, she don’t mind, if I lead her on // She holds me even though she knows // In the morning I’ll be gone // Tennessee, she don’t know, just how good she is // There’s a mystery in the way she moves // pull she back again // and if I wanna stay awhile // If I get a little bit high // On the night and the whiskey // Underneath the bar room lights // She can always lead me home // Like a star in the southern sky // And if I’m lose she will take me home // into her arms tonight // Tennessee don’t mind”
On the new track, Marlowe leans into the craziness and honestly of being in the music industry. In February, the singer-songwriter shared a song called “Take Me Home,” which vulnerably touched on how it felt to weather the ups and downs of the music industry. “Tennessee Don’t Mind” expands on that notion, bringing more honest takes to the forefront.
According to Marlowe the song is almost like a love letter to Music City. “To me, Tennessee in this instance really represents Music City. There for sure is a give and take with chasing this dream, and especially the past two years have been a whirlwind. There’s a lot of ‘life’ we miss out on being on the road. It’s definitely something no one prepares you for. I feel the most at home on the road and sometimes that’s the scary part. The music just consumes you and sometimes and it’s hard to get out of your own head.”

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “Take Me Home,” out now on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.
One of our 2021 Artists to Watch, Kameron Marlowe is back with his newest song. Following the release of his stellar debut album, We Were Cowboys, Marlowe is releasing his most vulnerable song to date, a ballad called “Take Me Home.”
“Take me home Carolina // I don’t want to be here anymore // I’m tired of all these buildings // And people that fill their hollow floors// They are full of opinions // They tell me that they know wrong from right // They love to leave you when you’re down”
The singer-songwriter has one of the most distinct vocals in the current genre right now. “Take Me Home” showcases that beautifully. The song is a track Marlowe never thought he would release; however, we are super glad he did.
According to the singer, as written in his Instagram caption, “What you’re hearing is a song I wrote in 30 mins at my house in Nashville after getting a call that just left me feeling empty inside. I never thought I’d release this let alone the day of recording I did on my phone. This business is hard and there are so many highs and lows a ton of comparison on not feeling like you’re doing enough fast enough.” He went on to add, “I feel like so many can relate because how many times have you just wanted to give up and go home but you don’t you keep fighting because you know deep down it’s what you’re meant to do.”
“Take Me Home” is one of those songs that leave you feeling deeply seen and understood; despite, it being personal to Marlowe himself. The singer-songwriter is the real deal, and we cannot wait to see how fans react to this incredible new song.

Kameron Marlowe’s brand new, debut album, We Were Cowboysis out now, August 26th on all streaming platforms. Take a listen and read our full review below.
Since the first time we heard “Giving You Up,” we knew Kameron Marlowe was going to be a star. When we heard, “Steady Heart,” it was cemented. With the officially release of his debut album, We Were Cowboys, we are even more convinced! Marlowe is a standout vocalist and songwriter amongst a sea of talented musicians in country music. We Were Cowboys LP proves that he is here to stay.
Themes of nostalgia, heartbreak, and romance are evident throughout the sixteen song project. The title track and the the final song, “Long Way Down,” bookend project, both introducing who Marlowe is to the audience and reminding fans how primed for the stage he is. “We Were Cowboys” feels almost autobiographical, as it is clear that the singer-songwriter weaved some of his Carolina upbringing throughout the intricate lyrics.
“When I turned 16 my saddle was the front seat of that 1993 Silverado // On a dirt road // I was Eastwood cool with a Marlboro Red // Aztec blanket in an eight food bed // Earnin’ braggin’ rights, every Saturday night // Them small town girls couldn’t help but fall for us // We were cowboys”
Marlowe features other nostalgic and personal songs throughout the project. On “This Old Town” the singer-songwriter leans into the traditional country sound, expressing the nostalgia of country living. On “Country Boy’s Prayer,” one of the few outside cuts, the traditional sound is heard again, as the singer talks to God. However, clearly one of the most personal on the record is the homey song, “Granny’s Got a Garden (For G’maw Jan)”
Although, we love the nostalgic songs, Marlowe shines on the break-up tracks that are sprinkled throughout the impressive project. While breakout songs like “Giving You Up,” “Girl On Fire,” and “Burn ‘Em All” gives fans a taste of the variety in the singer-songwriter’s talent, it is songs like “Does It Have to Be Over,” “Fool Me Again,” and “Over Now,” that continue to impress us.
Marlowe let’s his gritty vocals shine on “Does It Have to be Over.” He laments about not wanting a relationship to end, something we can all relate to. Similarly, on “Fool Me Again,” the singer-songwriter reflects on the could of beens and the remnants of a broken relationship. On the contrary, “Over Now” is a break-up tune that focuses on breaking up in the hopes of starting over one day.
“It is is what it is // And it ain’t what it was // And the same me saying let’s get back to us // This is loving you enough to tell you goodbye // Cause it’s all we got left that we ain’t yet tried // So let’s start over now”
Marlowe puts a twist on a break-up song on “Saying Goodbye.” Taking the perspective of an ex-lover, the singer talks to a future guy who dates the same girl, providing advice throughout the song. “There ain’t nothing like a girl saying goodbye // It’s like the world goes dark for a little while // You’re going to live, but a part of you is going to die.” The singer takes the advice-giving approach on the gritty song “Money Ain’t $hit” too.
Marlowe’s debut project is everything we hoped it would be. The singer clearly takes his craft seriously, creating music that is going to continue to attract more and more fans as his young career blossoms. According to the singer in a recent press release, he expresses, “I couldn’t be prouder of this project, and I’m incredibly excited for fans to get a deeper look at who I am through these songs.” He definitely should be proud!
