Ryan Hurd's debut album, Pelago, is available everywhere now. The project includes his hit duet with wife Maren Morris, “Chasing After You,” which is a Top Five hit and climbing on the Mediabase chart.

Ryan tells us: “Pelago” is a title that means open sea or overwhelming passion, and so I wanted to put an album together that had the songs as like song forward, the writing is, all writing I’m really proud of. I wanted something that really represented who I was as a writer and an artist and a person. I mean, it’s your first shot, you only get one time to have a debut album. So having all those summer songs on there was really important having some like, really, I think emotionally challenging songs on there was really important to me.”
