OZARK, AR, UNITED STATES, November 24, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Curt Brickley Releases Tastes Like Grace — A Raw, Hope-Filled Journey Through Confession, Healing, and Worship

Christian country artist and storyteller Curt Brickley announces the release of Tastes Like Grace, a 12-track collection exploring confession, healing, worship, and the unmistakable reality of grace that meets people when they have nothing left to offer. The project has already generated significant early momentum following Brickley’s recent viral success on TikTok.

Brickley’s November 18 reel for “Tryin’ to Breathe,” a song addressing grief and suffocating sorrow, surged past 50,000 views, 5,000+ likes, 150 Favorite adds and brought 82 new followers in just a few days. Nearly 67% of traffic came from the global “For You” page, with an additional 28% coming from TikTok search—rare performance indicators for a fully independent artist.

“This is helping a lot of people that are grieving and can’t find peace… they will feel the peace and comfort through this song,” one listener wrote. Another added, “WOW!! Your music opens my heart to a freedom my soul has been hungry for… absolutely astounding!”
A third fan summed it up simply: “Your music brought me back to the feet of Jesus.”

A Catalog Growing in Strength
Brickley’s first project, Backroad Believer, introduced his signature “Gospel Grit” sound—a fusion of Christian country and gritty Americana storytelling. Early tracks such as “Nineteen Again,” “Invincible,” and “Dangerous Man” have collectively crossed more than 20,000 streams, establishing Brickley as a songwriter with consistency, traction, and a growing audience.
Tastes Like Grace marks the next step in that evolution—deeper, rawer, and anchored in gospel truth.
