[Nashville, TN - May 4, 2026] - Emerging country artist Parker Brand makes a bold entrance into the music scene with the release of his debut single, "More Cigarettes." Released by Asphalt Music Group, the track introduces Brand's raw storytelling style and unmistakable voice, marking him as a promising new talent in modern country music.

"More Cigarettes," written and produced by Aaron Chesling, performed by Brand, blends traditional country grit with a contemporary edge. The song captures the emotional weight of heartbreak, reflection, coping, while pairing vivid lyrics with a haunting, stripped-down production that allows Brand's vocal authenticity to shine.

This song is a like hug from my grandmother who is no longer with us physically."
Aaron Chesling, known for his work with a range of young and established artists, brings his seasoned craftsmanship to the project, shaping a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. His collaboration with Brand highlights the artist's natural ability to connect through honest, relatable songwriting.
