Rising country stars, Tyla Rodrigues and the Kruse Brothers, join forces on their latest single, What’s Left To Hold Onto. With both artists in demand globally, they forged a friendship while on the road in Europe and the UK; crossing paths at C2C London and Berlin. With equal footings in their respective home markets, both artists have exceeded 10 + million streams and have been fixtures on stages, playlists and airwaves around the world.
The Kruse Brothers discuss the collaboration, "Tyla is one of the most exciting artists on the scene right now. We met her at the C2C Festival in Berlin, and her music immediately became the soundtrack to a lot of our time on the road. We couldn’t be more excited to share a song with her, a powerhouse international artist, and to continue to bring honky-tonk country music across the world."
This poignant song was written by Rodrigues with Australian country music legend, Allan Caswell; and produced by Jared Adlam (Mack Geiger, James Johnston).
As Tyla describes the single '……Hold Onto’ is a track about the quiet strength of holding onto hope for someone you love, even through life's most uncertain moments. I believe It captures some of the timeless storytelling that made me fall in love with country music, and I knew that the Kruse Brothers would bring something truly special to it. They have some of my favourite voices in country music, and I am beyond excited to collaborate with them on this song.”
While Tyla is heading to Canada in September for shows, The Kruse Brothers will be headlining Billy Bob’s Texas; the trio reconnecting in Nashville that same month.
