Brett Young’s latest single, “Catch,” is top five on the country charts, and he also has a song on the pop charts, thanks to Norwegian pop star, singer Astrid S. It turns out Astrid specifically requested Brett to sing with her on this song, and he says, “You know, I still don’t know why Astrid asked for me, (but it’s v)ery flattering when anybody ever requests that you sing on their song or that you sing with them.”
Brett isn’t sure how she became familiar with him or his music, and he says, “She has a huge following over there and so, it’s not like she needed somebody. So, the fact that she reached out because my voice, to her, seemed right for the project, it was very flattering.”
While Brett was flattered to be invited by Astrid to sing with her on “I Do,” he was also a little nervous, because he says, “I’m a songwriter first, and so I’m pretty picky about lyrics and stories, and I listen, kind of to a fault, a little bit judgingly, and I loved it from the very beginning. And so, I was flattered that she brought me on. I love the way that it turned out, and it’s been a pleasure to work with her.”
Brett’s latest single, “Catch,” is off his Ticket to L.A. album, and “I Do” is available wherever digital music is streamed or sold.
