Old Dominion Announces Headlining Tour and Drops New Single, “Make It Sweet” [Listen]

The guys from Old Dominion—Matthew Ramsey, Trevor Rosen, Geoff Sprung, Brad Tursi and Whit Sellers—are following up their fifth No. 1 single, “Hotel Key,” with the release of “Make It Sweet.”

The new track is the lead single from Old Dominion’s upcoming third studio album.

“We walked into the studio one day without discussing what we wanted the next step for our band to be,” says Matthew Ramsey. “The plan was to write a song and record it on that same day. What happened was something we could never have planned. The words fell out and the next thing we knew, we had recorded ‘Make It Sweet.’ It’s raw, natural and 100 percent us. We are so proud and grateful to have the opportunity to share such a meaningful moment for our band with the world.”

The boys will perform “Make It Sweet” for the very first time on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Oct. 16. You can watch Old Dominion’s new video for “Make It Sweet” below.

In addition, the band will embark on the Make It Sweet Tour in 2019. Kicking off on Jan. 18 in Chicago, the 20-plus-date tour will features support from Jordan Davis, Morgan Evans, and Mitchell Tenpenny on select dates.
