From the road to the airwaves
Tim Hicks sixth full-length album Going Somewhere, arrived just two days after kicking off his national headline Going Somewhere Tour with special guest The Martin Boys.
The album builds on the momentum of the title track Going Somewhere, a Top 10 hit at Canadian country radio, and leans into Hicks’ signature country rock sound, driven by big guitars, strong hooks, and a high-energy feel built for the stage.
Leading the campaign is the new single “The Pilot,” impacting radio alongside the album release. Built around the hook “let love be the pilot,” the track is set up as a key radio and live moment heading into the summer.
Developed alongside collaborators Jeff Coplan, Deric Ruttan, Derek Hoffman, and Dave Thomson, the project brings a mix of sounds and perspectives while staying rooted in Hicks’ lane. The record moves from the gritty title track to the summer-driven Tequila Gold and Chasing the Sun, alongside heavier cuts like Voodoo On It and more reflective moments including Quits and I’m Not Ready.
Going Somewhere is available across all digital platforms, as well as on limited edition cherry red vinyl. (Order Here)
“I’ve been working on this one for the past couple years, trying to get it just right, so it feels pretty great to finally send it out into the world. There’s a lot of range on this record. I got to play piano and record with my live band in studio, which was really special. I hope people feel that when they listen, and I can’t wait to bring these songs on the road.” – Tim Hicks
Over the past month, Tim Hicks brought the new album to stages across the country — connecting with fans night after night and carrying the energy of Going Somewhere from Vancouver to Saint John.
The run once again reinforced Tim’s place as one of Canadian country’s most dynamic live performers, backed by a powerhouse band and a show built for the road.
