Bright, catchy and truly infectious!

Country-pop sensation Hayden Josephโs upcoming single โDog Beers” will have listeners up on their feet and dancing the weekend away.
The title is an extremely clever play on the concept of โdog years,โ with the line โin dog beers Iโve only had oneโ cheekily brushing off how wild the evening has been. Who said beer drinking songs couldn’t be for the LGBTQ+ community?
Against the odds, Hayden Joseph has independently built a community of nearly 250,000 followers on TikTok through a shared desire to expand country musicโs look, sound, and subject matter into something for everyone to feel included in as an out country artist.

Its follow-up singles saw even more rapid trajectories, securing placements on several notable Spotify editorials, including โOut Now,โ โNew Music Nashville,โ โFresh Finds,โ and โCountry Christmas.โ His latest EP, โIโm Not There Yet,โ released March 30th with much critical acclaim. He has been featured on several highly esteemed independent playlists, such asCMT (โRoundupโ/โPrideโ), CMA (โPrideโ), ACM (โNew Music Fridayโ/โPrideโ).
“Dog Beers” is catchy, bright and a perfect encapsulation of that feeling of getting off work for a summer weekend.
The positive energy of this track is infectious, and youโll probably find yourself fighting the urge to sing along. Lighthearted dog barks at the trackโs end (from Haydenโs Frenchie himself, Vince), seem to say โWhat are you waiting for?โ Roll those sleeves up, get a few friends together, crack some beers and chill out past the sunset.
