Tim Hicks Announces New Album Going Somewhere and National Tour
Tim Hicks is set to release his sixth studio album, Going Somewhere, on May 22, arriving alongside the launch of his national Going Somewhere Tour and a limited-edition cherry red vinyl release. Led by the new radio single “The Pilot,” the project builds on Hicks’ signature country rock sound with arena-ready hooks, big guitars, and a mix of high-energy summer tracks and reflective moments. Developed with collaborators including Jeff Coplan, Deric Ruttan, Derek Hoffman, and Dave Thomson, the album showcases both the grit and heart that have defined Hicks’ career while bringing fans his most personal and dynamic record yet.

This May, Saunders takes the song across Ontario as part of the True North series tour, joining ACM and CMA recording artist James Otto, alongside Graham Trude and Tara Shannon.
