Jake Kohn has done it again, folks.
He may just be finishing up his senior year of high school, but the talented young artists has already released several impressive originals, had a viral moment on YouTube, made his Grand Ole Opry debut, and opened shows for huge acts like Sierra Ferrell, The Red Clay Strays, 49 Winchester, and many more. And now he’s got a debut record on the way.
A spectacular showcase of Kohn’s wise-beyond-his-years songwriting prowess and uniquely deep and raspy vocals, the debut record Where Do We Go From Here? features 11 tracks, 7 of which have already been released as singles, and is set to be released in its entirety on June 27. Released via Atlantic Records and produced by Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Sierra Ferrell, Colby Acuff and more), Kohn released the album’s lead single “Frostbite” back in November 2023.
Periodically releasing singles ever since, the most high profile of which being his track “Before I Do” which was written and recorded with Wyatt Flores for the Twisters movie, Kohn didn’t announce the album until Wednesday when he released his latest single “When You Say You Love Me.”
One of the first originals he got comfortable playing live, sneaking into his sets between covers, “When You Say You Love Me” is a well-written track about a tumultuous relationship, and as is the case with the majority of Kohn’s growing catalog, it’ll leave you wondering how in the world a teenager wrote it.
Check the new single out here:

In addition to 3 brand new originals that will likely hit streaming platforms upon the album’s release, it appears that Kohn is also including an awesome cover on the project with Alice in Chains’ heartbreaking classic “Nutshell.”
Where Do We Go From Here? Tracklist:
“Hard As Stone”
“When You Say You Love Me”
“Frostbite”
“Dreams”
“The Last One”
“Fraterville, TN”
“Where Do We Go From Here?”
“Lorraine”
“Nutshell”

“Before I Do” ft. Wyatt Flores
The rest of the album will be here in just under a month, but with the majority of it already at our disposal, it’s safe to say Where Do We Go From Here? is going to be a special debut album from one of country music’s most promising young acts. Once this record is out in its entirety, though, and Kohn sets out on a career as a full time musician, the sky is truly the limit.
So get out there and see Jake live before his music really blows up!
