Warren Zeiders Announces New Double Album, ‘Relapse, Lies, & Betrayal,’ Out March 14 Via Warner Records

Country’s new, breakout star Warren Zeiders announces his new album Relapse, Lies, & Betrayal, coming March 14 via Warner Records. The two-part, 20-track album is an introspection of heartbreak, personal growth and emotional healing through Zeiders’ signature gritty vocals and storytelling that strikes like a musical gut-punch. Produced by Ross Copperman (Old Dominion Tyler Hubbard), Mike Elizondo (U2, Ed Sheeran) and Zeiders, the album features a collection of tracks co-penned by Zeiders and standout writers including Connor Mcdonough (Benson Boone, Joji), Ali Tamposi (Elton John, Dua Lipa), Mark Holmon (Morgan Wallen, Bailey Zimmerman), Feli Ferraro (Jelly Roll, BTS) and instrumentalists Craig Young (HARDY, Post Malone), Aaron Sterling (Sabrina Carpenter, Taylor Swift) and more.

The album’s latest preview, “Can A Heart Take” is an afflicted, musical autopsy of the heart. Written by Randy Montana (Riley Green, Luke Combs) Copperman, Ryan Beaver (Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton) and Zeiders, the track explores the limits of loss, with a single repeating notion – How much pain can a heart take? – echoing alongside guitar-backed vocals.

Throughout the creative process, Zeiders – a college-athlete-turned hitmaker – took an intimate, therapeutic approach to songwriting, reflecting on his personal relationships and skyrocket success. . The new album encompasses the mental rollercoaster he experienced during  his rapidly changing life and career – offering a cathartic exploration of love, loss and gratitude. From summer tune “Relapse” and anger-driven anthems like “Bad” and “Take It To the Grave,” to the introspective moments in “You For A Reason,” “Can A Heart Take” and “Withdrawal,” every track pulses with fleeting feelings of love. Elsewhere on the album, tracks like “Crying Whiskey” and “Lies” counteract the hard-strung vulnerability, while pensive tracks like  “Everything Comes To Go Away” personifies the album’s crux of love and loss.  

After a breakthrough year fueled by the success of his first No. 1 single “Pretty Little Poison” and a win for CMT’s Breakthrough Male Video of the Year, Zeiders returns with his highly-anticipated sophomore album.  In the Fall, Zeiders released a 10-track project Relapse, which was hailed by Billboard as a “heart-shattering arc” (Billboard) and introduced fans to rock-tinged anthems like the People’s Choice-nominated track “Betrayal” and title track “Relapse.” Zeiders capped his whirlwind year as one of country’s most exciting new voices with 35+ dates performing as direct-support on Jelly Roll’s The Beautifully Broken Tour and earning him seven coveted spots on Billboard’s 2024 year-end charts. 

Next month, Zeiders will perform at the 2025 New Faces of Country Music showcase during the Country Radio Seminar in Nashville, joining fellow rising stars Drew Baldridge, Ashley Cooke, Dasha and Zach Top. And, in March, he’ll headline the Houston Livestock and Rodeo.

Later this month, Zeiders will head out on his first-ever European tour. In March, he’ll headline Houston Rodeo, before kicking off his 2025 “Relapse Tour,” which will hit 23 dates across major markets, including Nashville, Atlanta, Charlotte and more.
