About

JUNO Award nominees and CCMA Award winners Chad Brownlee and Tim Hicks announced today that they will team up for 8 co-headlining dates across Western Canada in 2017. The run of dates mixes Brownlee’s “Hearts On Fire Tour” with Hicks’ newly announced “Shake These Walls Tour”. 

An award-winning singer, songwriter, philanthropist and former Vancouver Canucks NHL draft pick, Chad Brownlee is by definition a renaissance man.  With over a billion radio impressions to date, his singles have rapidly climbed the country music charts, with multiple singles cracking the national Top 10, including his last two singles “Hearts On Fire” and “I Hate You For It”.  “I Hate You For It” was also the top selling country digital song by a Canadian artist (source: Nielsen Soundscan) for 10 weeks earlier this year. 

A proud native of British Columbia, throughout his career Brownlee has received critical acclaim and numerous accolades including a highly coveted 2013 JUNO nomination for Country Album of the Year, and most recently multiple 2016 Canadian Country Music Association® (CCMA®) Award ™ nominations, including Album of the Year for Hearts On Fire, the fourth release in his discography.

The five-time GOLD certified Tim Hicks released “Shake These Walls”, the follow-up to 2014’s CCMA Award nominated sophomore album 5:01/5:01+ on September 9th. The album is a combination of slick party-fueled anthems, blue collar country and free-spirited romance, shaping the evolution of an artist the Toronto Star named “one to watch” and one who remains intent on leading the pace within an evolving musical landscape. Co-written by Hicks, “Shake These Walls” debuted as the #1 selling Canadian Country Album on the Nielsen SoundScan Top Country Albums Chart, bringing the acclaimed country artist front and centre for his proverbial close-up.

With over 378,000 total digital singles sold to date, Hicks is currently celebrating his highest charting hit with “Stompin’ Ground” which was the #1 most added song at Canadian Country Radio upon release and topped the digital singles chart for one week as the best-selling Canadian country song. Hicks will release the fan favourite track “Slow Burn” to radio in coming weeks.
