Billboard-charting singer/songwriter and Pandora “2025 Artist to Watch: Country” Alexandra Kay keeps the anticipation surging over her sophomore album, Second Wind, out October 24, with the release of “What He Does.” Available today, the soul-affirming ballad about the power of selfless love is one of the most breathtaking and emotionally radiant tracks of her career. Listen HERE.
Written by Alexandra Kay with producer Andrew DeRoberts and Allison Veltz-Cruz, the fierce and stripped-back reflection is exactly what her 8.7M social media followers have come to cherish from the rising star. Woven with golden honesty and infused with her timeless vocals, the CMT 2025 Next Women of Country member proves her brilliant storytelling is “custom-made for the country music genre” (People).
Featured on her upcoming album Second Wind, the flawless new gem follows a string of standout releases, including the powerhouse anthem “Straight For The Heart,” “Feminine Energy,” “The Last,” and “Cupid’s A Cowgirl.”
Coming up, the compelling entertainer will take the Canadian Country Music Awards (CCMA) stage with Dallas Smith tomorrow (9/13) to perform their hit single “How Do You Miss Me” that’s currently Top 5 at Canadian country radio. Following the CCMAs, the electrifying globetrotter – who just returned from her sold-out European Tour – immediately heads out on her Second Wind: The Tour that is also selling out fast. Launching September 26 in Atlanta, the celebratory trek will span 30-nationwide dates, hitting major markets like Nashville, Boston, New Orleans, Anaheim, Las Vegas and more. Get tickets HERE.
With her independent debut album, All I’ve Ever Known, hitting #1 on iTunes (All Genre & Country) and Top 10 on multiple Billboard charts (Country Album, Emerging Artist and HeatSeeker), the heart-first starlet – now signed to BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville – is serving up the same tear-streaked ballads, raw, poetic storytelling and diary-deep honesty that her fans crave.
Born from the wreckage of a divorce, her debut was survival in real time, and although heartbreak still lingers, it no longer leads. Breathing new life into her story, Second Wind is a revival, hitting like a spark in the dark – magnetic and glowing with possibility. Pre-order/pre-save/pre-add HERE.
