Kane Brown’s summer of music and purp ose

Kane Brown’s Summer of Music and Meaning

Kane Brown’s biggest tour yet is about more than just music. From mental health to military support, the country star opens up about what’s driving him this summer — between his coast-to-coast shows, a meaningful partnership with Crown Royal and the cocktail he’s reaching for along the way. His new album, The High Road, is already making history. We caught up with Brown to talk about performing with his wife, his backstage must-haves and why giving back has never been more personal.

“Crown Royal has always been about giving back and bringing people together,” Brown says. “That really aligns with my values. They support not just the music, but the community around it — and that means a lot to me.”

Tell Me Where: A Locals’ Guide to Providence, Rhode Island

Back in April, I traveled to Providence, Rhode Island to get a tattoo and decided to make a long weekend out of it. I did my own research on the city in advance but decided to leave some things up to chance, asking locals their opinions of where to eat, drink and shop along the way. It really made for the best weekend, and I even adopted the strategy for a couple long weekends I’ve had since. I put together a Providence travel guide with recommendations from both locals and myself so you too can experience the best of the New England city. —Amanda Gabriele, Senior Editor
