Rising East Texas singer-songwriter Travis Bolt releases a music video for “Seasons”, his new single and masterclass in moody country rock, showcasing Bolt’s powerful vocals and diaristic gift for transforming personal pain into universally relatable storytelling. Travis Bolt announces the release of his debut full-length album, ‘Burning Bridges’, arriving March 6 2026 via Gravel Road. “Sometimes love can change as fast as the weather,” Bolt shares. “Like sunshine one minute and a storm the next. But when the connection is strong you often times feel the need to see it through.” Proceeds from royalties generated from the song will be donated to NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness.

Gravel Road Records president Anthony Martini says, “Music can be a powerful tool to help people through the dark days, this is something I know first hand. We all struggle at times and it’s important to destigmatize asking for help. ‘Seasons’ is a powerful song, so pairing it with a cause and organization like NAMI felt right. We’ll proudly be donating all royalties from the song through December 31st to help fund the critical mental health resources they provide.” Bolt explains, “I made ‘Seasons’ during a time when everything in my life felt like it was falling apart and even during my best days I still had my doubts. I learned that even the hardest seasons would eventually pass, but none of us should have to go through them alone. Partnering with NAMI is important to me because we can all use a reminder that there are people out there who care and are willing to help when you need it.”

Produced by Jason Burt, who has worked with Leon Bridges, John Mayer and Paul Cauthen, ‘Burning Bridges’ blends raw country songwriting with urgent rock guitars and pounding drums, all anchored by Bolt’s unflinching, soulful voice. Across its tracks, Bolt channels heartbreak, perseverance and redemption, each song a chapter in a larger story of self-discovery. Diagnosed with Tourette’s Syndrome as a child, he discovered that playing guitar quieted his symptoms, a form of therapy that quickly became his lifeline. Growing up in East Texas, Bolt was immersed in country music at a young age, with early exposure to artists like Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen through his father’s work, supplying backstage BBQ to Larry Joe Taylor’s famed music festival. His breakthrough came with “Never Tried Cocaine”, which went viral on TikTok and streaming platforms, amassing over 30 million streams, half a million new followers and spots on Spotify’s Fresh Finds and multiple Apple Music country playlists.
