ON THE ROAD WITH ERNEST, TRACY LAWRENCE ANDBAILEY ZIMMERMAN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
NASHVILLE, TENN. – Today GRAMMY®-nominated Chandler Walters sets newest track “Break Your Heart,” out now. Doubling down on his country traditionalist roots, Walters delivers the kind of organic, live-show energy that’s quickly becoming his signature – like recent release “Come On Whiskey.”
About writing “Break Your Heart” with Rhett Akins, Jacob Durrett and ERNEST, Walter shares, “This was us reminiscing on Toby Keith and the 2000s country music I grew up on. While on tour it’s been one of my favorites to sing and perform.”
The new song finds Walters at a crossroads, where temptation meets self-awareness. Over classic country instrumentation, he delivers a warning to a would-be lover:
I don’t wanna break your heart ’cause baby, that’s what I do
I love ’em, leave ’em, lead ’em on and go and break ’em right in two
You’re too pretty, too perfect, let me stop you ‘fore we get too far
Yeah, I might be what you need tonight but I don’t wanna break your heart
Aw, don’t make me do it now
On the road, Walters continues to build momentum, currently supporting friend and mentor ERNEST on the Live From The South Tour through April. Later this year, he’ll join Tracy Lawrence on the No Alibis Tour and Bailey Zimmerman on the Different Night Same Rodeo Tour, alongside festival stops at Tortuga Music Festival, Rock The South, Windy City Smokeout and more.

ABOUT CHANDLER WALTERS
Bringing energy back to the classic-country tradition, Chandler Walters is a multi-talented native of Marietta, Georgia, signed to ERN’s Cadillac Music / DeVille Records. Already a seasoned steel-guitar player and multi-Platinum, all-genre No. 1 songwriter, his burgeoning artistic career is now kicking off, schooled on a mix of rock and country influence. The guitar slinger moved to Nashville on a whim in 2021, picking up steel guitar and catching the attention of hitmaker ERNEST in the process, who promptly added Walters to his band. Traveling the world while learning song craft from the modern greats, he signed a publishing deal with ERN’s Cadillac Music in 2024, earning monster success as co-writer on Post Malone’s 5x Platinum, all-genre No. 1 single “I Had Some Help (feat. Morgan Wallen).” Walters posted six cuts on Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion in total, and has also co-penned tracks for ERNEST (including “I Went To College, I Went To Jail” (feat. Jelly Roll)), Bailey Zimmerman (“Is This Really Over?”), Charles Wesley Godwin (“Dead To Rights”) and more. Boasting organic, live-show inspired country sonics (with plenty of steel guitar) and a knack for modern language, Walters’ songs like “Come On Whiskey” and “Break Your Heart” find a proven hitmaker turning “real shit” into catchy, singalong anthems.
