Canadian singer/songwriter Matt Lang has shared his new single “Outta the Bar” via River House Artists. Co-written by Lang alongside Danick Dupelle (Emerson Drive) and Jimmy Thow (Joe Nichols), the song “captures the spark of meeting a special someone under the neon lights of a bar and the endless possibilities that can follow.”
Lang says about the new song:
‘Outta the Bar’ is a really fun one about falling hard for someone in a bar and wanting to explore what that connection could become outside of those walls. It’s about that feeling of meeting someone special, and I think everyone can relate to that.
Lang has always wanted to bring the sound of Nashville to his Québec home. His self-titled 2018 EP marked his first English-language release, and at that time, he didn’t speak a word of English. The success of that album, Matt Lang, has led to sharing bills with the likes of Luke Combs and Carly Pearce as well as consecutive wins for Male Artist of the Year and Album of the Year at the Québec Country Gala in 2023 and 2024.
Fresh off performing at Nashville’s CMA Fest, Lang is continuing the support of his latest album, All Night Longer, on a headlining Canadian tour across Québec, Alberta, Ontario and other provinces.
