Two-time JUNO Award-winning rock band, The Glorious Sons deliver the brand-new single “Hold Steady” – released independently by the group and distributed via award-winning label Black Box. With a chorus that stands the test of time, underscored by a bluesy rock riff, “Hold Steady” marks the return of the ever-evolving, RIA Platinum-certified and six-time CRIA Gold-certified rock group, to radio with their first official single drop this year. “Hold Steady” serves to bookend the four-song session which yielded the highly celebrated and acclaimed tracks “Daylight”, “Young King” and last week’s dreamy sonic release “I Will Destroy The Void In You.”
Speaking of the single “Hold Steady,” lead singer Brett Emmons shares, “the chorus is one of the oldest things I had kicking around in my head. We actually tried to find a home for it on The Union, but it wasn’t until a few months back, when I finished writing that bluesy, acoustic riff that you hear at the top of the song, that the melody and chorus just kind of popped back into my head and found its forever home.”

Last week, the 2021 JUNO nominated group dropped the unexpected new song “I Will Destroy The Void In You” – the first track in the two pack release that includes the new single “Hold Steady.” Released independently by the band and distributed via award-winning label Black Box both tracks were produced by The Glorious Sons and written by Brett Emmons, Jay Emmons, Chris Koster, Adam Paquette, and Josh Hewson.
Upon release “I Will Destroy The Void In You” received instant praise with Toronto modern rock station Indie88 claiming, “the intimate track is striking and proves that the Kingston heavy-rockers aren’t one-trick ponies.” Furthermore Indie88’s Meg Subic exclaims, “while The Glorious Sons have their fair share of slow songs, here they manage to take a big leap musically and successfully stick the landing.”
“This one’s just a few chords and some confessions. It’s one of my favourites we’ve ever recorded,” shares lead singer Brett Emmons. “I was hoping to avoid taking it to the peak, and somehow still keep it interesting. Koster was hugely important in landing this plane. It’s a way that nobody has heard us sound before.”
For JUNO Award winning, two-time CRIA Platinum-certified and six-time CRIA Gold-certified rock group The Glorious Sons, the past few years have been an incredible journey, leading to the meteoric rise of their recognition as one of the commanding forces in rock ‘n’ roll, not only at home but globally. ‘S.O.S. (Sawed Off Shotgun)’, the final single released from their 2017 JUNO Award winning album Young Beauties and Fools not only reached the #1 spot at U.S. Mainstream Rock for four consecutive weeks but was the #1 most played song at U.S. Rock radio and most played CanCon song at Canadian Rock Radio for 2019, in addition to holding the #1 spot at Active Rock in Canada for 10 consecutive weeks and spending a record setting 64 weeks on the Canadian Rock Radio Chart.

Their third full length studio album A War On Everything, named one of (Classic Rock UK’s) Albums of the Year, saw international acclaim as the lead single ‘Panic Attack’, became their second consecutive U.S. #1, also climbing to the top of the charts at home, where it spent an impressive ten consecutive weeks at #1, along with the album’s second single ‘Kingdom In My Heart’ that notched the band their third consecutive #1 and 12 the consecutive Top 10 radio hits in Canada. Dominating airwaves since the release of their 2015 debut The Union, The Glorious Sons have amassed a catalogue of lyrically driven, unpredictable, thought-provoking anthems for the socially conscious, that resonate with fans and wield their signature energy and spirit, complemented by jarring theatrical delivery and a mesmerizing live show.
From headlining clubs to arenas and festival dates, from playing tiny rooms to massive shows with The Rolling Stones, Twenty-One Pilots and touring across the U.S. with The Struts, and from growing up in Kingston to headlining a hometown show at Richardson Memorial Stadium attended by over 14,000 of their biggest fans, The Glorious Sons have steadily cemented their position as “Canada’s Best Export” (Washington Times). 2020 kicked off with multiple sold out dates on the North American A War On Everything headline tour before the world shut down, and the band is set to return to the live stage with their newly announced 2021/22 Unfinished Business Tour. Recently nominated for a 2021 JUNO Award for Group of the Year, expect the unexpected as The Glorious Sons return to the studio to do what they love best.
