The 23-time Canadian Country Music Association award winner, Brett Kissel takes to the rodeo in the new video for the opening track to his 2025 album, Let Your Horses Run, as he lets the real life bull riders and bullfighters tell the story of the 'Cowboys and Dreamers.'

Starring real life bull riders Brock Radford, Ashton Sahli, Jeremy Maisonneuve, Sloan Walker, Chanse Switzer, Garrett Green, Jake Gardner and Gordon Erickson and bullfighters Ty Prescott, Brett Monea and Connor Larrivee, the powerful video perfectly brings to life the sentiments of the song.

"I been around / I felt the fire / I burnt it down like a gun for hire / Saddle up let’er buck I ain’t afraid of falling / Damn right I’m all in and when I ride, I ride on past the sunset / Chasing down things that I ain’t done yet / That’s how it is with wild and free / Cowboys and dreamers like me."

Taken from his latest album, Let Your Horses Run, the project marks a deeper return to Kissel’s country roots, infused with a fresh perspective and a matured sense of artistry.

“It seems weird to say, but I feel like a different person on this album,” Kissel reflects. “Maybe it’s because I’m getting older and my priorities have changed. I’ve always been from the farm, but I never really dove into the country lifestyle as much as I have on this project—and it feels so good.”

Known for his charismatic personality, dynamic stage presence, and unique music style, Brett Kissel has soared to the top of the Canadian country music charts as one of Canada’s most celebrated and beloved entertainers. With 23 CCMA awards, 3 JUNO awards, 2 Gold-certified albums, 12 Gold singles, 5 Platinum singles and an impressive track record of 19 Top-10 radio hits, including 4 #1 singles, his talent and popularity are undeniable.

Kissel has toured with Brad Paisley and Garth Brooks and collaborated with Grammy winners Charley Pride, Dave Mustaine, Nelly, 98°, and TikTok sensation Cooper Alan. Following a year-long, four album roll out of The Compass Project, which was accompanied by an extensive cross-Canada tour, Brett Kissel steps into an elevated new chapter of music with an inspiring, unrelenting collection of new music.
