<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Featured as <em>The Tennessean</em>’s portfolio cover on Sunday (1/23), <a title="BRELAND" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSBreland/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fbreland-tickets%2F">BRELAND</a> also premiered his brand-new mini documentary on <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/4s9pqdc/k90670/c325oam" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tennessean.com</a>. The clip depicts <a title="BRELAND" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSBreland/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fbreland-tickets%2F">BRELAND</a>’s two-week whirlwind in November earning a “hat-trick” of Nashville breakout moments— making his Grand Ole Opry debut, performing on the <a title="CMA Awards" href="https://countrymusicontour.com/cma-awards-tickets-pre-sale-starts-now/">CMA Awards</a>, and singing on <a title="Ryman" href="https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/1224809/264167/4272?subId1=WPScmnbRyman&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fryman-auditorium-tickets-nashville%2Fvenue%2F221356&partnerpropertyid=5213910&MediaPartnerPropertyId=5213910">Ryman</a> Auditorium stage for the first time. ;<br>“[At the Opry], I sang &#8216;My Truck&#8217; in the same three-foot by three-foot circle where Connie Smith performed,” <a title="BRELAND" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSBreland/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fbreland-tickets%2F">BRELAND</a> tells <em>The Tennessean</em>. “That&#8217;s an interesting juxtaposition, but it’s important to realize that there was space for both of us in the circle, metaphorically and in real life. I imagine when I perform &#8216;My Truck&#8217; before some newcomer in 50 years, they&#8217;ll call that song ‘old school.’ It’s true what they say. Music, like all things, evolves.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Continuing the momentum, <a title="BRELAND" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSBreland/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fbreland-tickets%2F">BRELAND</a> has already commanded a few great stages in 2022 as he performed at the <strong>College Football Playoff National Championship</strong> in mid-January and opened the year performing LIVE on <strong>CBS’ New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash</strong> alongside <strong><a title="Dierks Bentley" href="https://countrymusicontour.com/dierks-bentley-concert-tour-dates/">Dierks Bentley</a></strong> and performing their hit collab<strong> “Beers On Me” </strong>as well as his breakthrough track <strong>“My Truck.”</strong></p>
