NOELINE HOFMANN RELEASES NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR “AUGUST

DEBUT EP PURPLE GAS OUT OCTOBER 4

GRAND OLE OPRY DEBUT CONFIRMED FOR
SEPTEMBER 21, PLUS FALL TOUR DATES WITH
TURNPIKE TROUBADOURS, COLTER WALL, WYATT FLORES AND MORE

September 5, 2024—The official music video for Noeline Hofmann’s new song, “August,” is out today. Watch/share HERE.

“August” is the latest song unveield from Hofmann’s anticipated debut EP, Purple Gas, which will be released October 4 via La Honda Records. Already receiving widespread critical attention, Rolling Stone praises, “Hofmann plays her shows with a commanding stage presence that blends charisma with confidence, and sings with a commanding voice…it’s hard to ignore Hofmann’s potential in country music,” while Billboard declares, “a uniqueness that is making Hofmann an artist standing out in a crowded crop of newcomers.”

Produced by Patrick Lyons (Colter Wall, Sam Barber), Purple Gas draws deep inspiration from Hofmann’s life in the Badlands of Southern Alberta, Canada, where she’s worked in honky-tonks and herded cattle across the Canadian prairies. Consisting of seven songs, including the title track and “Lightning in July (Prairie Fire),” the EP finds Hofmann’s unique sound and perspective shining through, and her voice, described by All Country News as “rich and textured as the rural landscapes that inspire her,” on full display.

Hofmann’s song, “Purple Gas,” has already garnered widespread notice after catching attention online from both fans and artists alike, including Zach Bryan, who, after being instantly moved by the track, asked Hofmann to record it with him as a duet for his new album, The Great American Bar Scene—the first time he’s ever recorded another artist’s work. Of the track, Bryan shares, “This song brought me to tears the first time I heard it, so it was really important for me that Noeline gave me the privilege to sing it with her. I have never covered another musician on an album and it’s because I was waiting on someone to write a song like this. Noeline resonates like Gillian Welch to me and Gillian is one of my favorite musicians to ever live.” Listen to the duet version, which is also featured on Hofmann’s forthcoming EP, here.

Poised for a breakout year, the 21-year-old artist has also been praised for her “mature and haunting voice, and an innate knack for storytelling” (Whiskey Riff), named one of Holler Country’s “New Country & Americana Artists for 2024,” and will make her Grand Ole Opry debut on Saturday, September 21. Hofmann will also tour throughout this fall including dates supporting Turnpike Troubadours, Colter Wall, Wyatt Flores and Shane Smith & The Saints. See below for complete tour itinerary.
