Missouri-born country artist David Nail is currently touring the U.S. ahead of the release of new material later this summer. Nail first began recording music in 2002, with his lead single “Mercury” charting on Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks despite the album to which it belongs having never been commercially released. In 2009 he officially debuted with I’m About to Come Alive, praised for its emotional depth and honesty. The album features the song “Turning Home,” for which Nail was nominated for a Grammy Award for Male Country Vocal Performance. Since the success of his debut album, he has released three more solo studio albums and a successful EP called Best of Me in 2023. His new single, a cover of Bruce Cockburn’s “Pacing the Cage,” was produced for the film Take No Prisoners, which premiered at SXSW this year. Nail’s upcoming music promises to reinvent his sound while maintaining the vulnerability and authenticity he is known for.
