Now or Never is the fourth studio album by Canadian country music singer Brett Kissel. It was released on January 1, 2020 via Warner Music Canada. It won Album of the Year at the 2020 Canadian Country Music Association Awards. [3]
Kissel said "in previous years, previous albums, I didn’t have the courage to do a traditional country music on a project. Well, now we’ve recorded one. In previous years, I didn’t have the balls to record something so Pop/EDM because I was afraid of what people would think. Well, I’ve got one like that. All in all, I just wanted to destroy the box of what I thought was possible for a country record". [4]
"Now or Never" features eight tracks in total including Kissel's debut American single and #1 Canadian country hit "Drink About Me". [5] [6] Kissel noted how he incorporated tracks of different styles between traditional country, Canadian country, and pop country. [7] Kissel stated that some songs found "a new direction" while others took him in "the direction of his roots", and that the album has "something for everybody". [8]
