(Nashville, TN – July 17, 2026) – Emerging country artist and actor Jet Jurgensmeyer joins forces with Kayleigh Clark for his brand new summer single, “Drink Alone.” Fueled by catchy melodies and infectious energy, it’s the kind of song you’ll keep coming back to. Stream it now on all major platforms here.
Co-written by Jet Jurgensmeyer, Ericca Latza, and Ava Hall, “Drink Alone” is a feel-good anthem arriving just in time for summer. The track follows a playful narrative of a young man hoping to win a girl’s attention, insisting she’ll leave her drink behind once she’s caught up in the moment with him. Its irresistible melody and carefree vibe make it the perfect soundtrack for a windows-down summer drive. Recorded at Farmland Studios in Berry Hill, Tennessee, “Drink Alone” was produced by Jet Jurgensmeyer and Dan Frizsell.
The pair recently offered fans an exclusive first listen to the highly anticipated single during a recent interview on Local On 2, sharing the story behind the collaboration and previewing the song ahead of its release.
Clark first gained national attention as a contestant on season 28 of NBC’s The Voice, where her blind audition earned a coveted four-chair turn. She went on to impress audiences throughout the competition with her powerful vocals and heartfelt performances. “When I finished the song, I knew it was meant to be a duet,” Jurgensmeyer shares. “Kayleigh was the very first person I thought of, and the first call I made. Her voice brought exactly what the song needed, and I’m so excited for everyone to hear what we created together.”
The release follows the success of Jurgensmeyer’s single “Nothing On You,” which showcased his continued growth as both a songwriter and artist. Co-written by Jet Jurgensmeyer, Grant Bias, and Hannah Dorothy Bristow, the romantic track painted a cinematic picture of timeless love and further established his ability to blend modern country with classic storytelling.

Before “Nothing On You,” Jurgensmeyer scored a breakout success with his inspiring anthem “RED,” which has surpassed one million streams worldwide. The fan-favorite single carries a powerful message of unity, reminding listeners that no matter where we come from, we all bleed red. He later released both an official music video and an acoustic performance of the song, filmed at Galloway Farms in Franklin, Tennessee, and directed by the Riker Brothers. [watch here and here].
