Cameron Whitcomb - The Hard Way (Deluxe) (2025) Hi-Res

In a world that often prizes surface-level honesty, Cameron Whitcomb is the rare artist with the courage to uncover his most uncomfortable truths. After leaving home at age 17 and getting a job on a pipeline, the British Columbia native discovered his passion for singing and devoted himself to making music, soon achieving a monumental breakthrough with his 2024 debut EP Quitter-a fearlessly candid collection of country/folk songs inspired by his journey in overcoming addiction. In a testament to the pure force of his storytelling, the 22-year-old singer/songwriter has ascended to tremendous heights in the past year alone, including headlining multiple tours across North America and Europe and amassing over 400 million global catalog streams-all before releasing a full-length project. On his highly awaited debut album The Hard Way, Whitcomb now shares his most powerful work yet: a selection of songs that willfully stare down his demons, instilling every moment with equal parts grit and sensitivity and explosively poetic detail.
