Brandon Lake is doing something that almost never happens in music today. In 2026, he sold over 9,500 tickets for a single show in Utah. That is enough people to fill a giant Maverik Center sports stadium. Most people know him from church songs, but now he is playing for massive crowds who love his new country sound.
He decided to stop playing only one kind of music. His new style mixes the stories of country music with the loud energy of rock and roll. This change made his album King of Hearts very popular. It actually reached the top spot on both the Christian and Rock charts at the very same time.
