NASHVILLE, TN (May 6, 2026) — Following the viral breakout success of “Hope It’s Hot Out,” Platinum-certified songwriter, producer, and artist Kyle Clark returns with “HOT OUT,” a high-energy remix created in collaboration with dance DJ and producer Deerock, available today. The track made its live debut during Deerock’s set at Stagecoach Festival, offering fans an early preview of its high-impact energy.

Originally released in 2025, “Hope It’s Hot Out” has generated more than 50 million streams and inspired over 75,000 TikTok creations, quickly establishing itself as a defining track in Clark’s growing catalog. With “HOT OUT,” Clark expands the song’s reach — fusing his coastal-country sound with high-energy EDM production to create a crossover built for summer.

Driven by pulsing beats, bright synths, and an explosive drop, “HOT OUT” elevates Clark’s signature vocal style into a more dynamic, global sound. The remix reflects a broader wave of genre crossover, where country storytelling and dance production continue to collide.

Clark shares, “The original was all about that easy, summer mindset. ‘HOT OUT’ takes that same feeling and turns it into something you can hear on a stage or in a club. Working with Deerock brought a completely new energy to it. Deerock adds, “It’s never about changing the song, it’s about giving it somewhere new to live and this one with Kyle felt like the perfect record to push that country x EDM crossover forward. I’m hyped for people to feel this on the dance floor.”

The release arrives as Clark continues the rollout of his upcoming album, Better On A Boat, due Friday, May 22. The 10-track project leans into his coastal-country perspective, blending relaxed, feel-good production with reflective songwriting. Produced and mixed by Clark and mastered by Sam Moses, the album builds on the sound driving his recent momentum.

Clark explains, “‘Better On A Boat’ represents the mindset and way of living I naturally gravitate toward. It’s about life on the water, slowing things down, being present, and finding joy in the simple moments. The boat has always been a place where everything feels clear to me. Life’s just better.”

An established name in Nashville’s songwriting community, Clark co-wrote “Let Him In Anyway,” the current single at country radio from Blake Shelton. He previously earned RIAA Platinum certification for “Villain” by Lily Rose.

Additional cuts include HARDY, Jon Pardi, Dylan Scott, Mitchell Tenpenny, Restless Road, Mackenzie Carpenter, Erin Kinsey, and Chayce Beckham. After signing a joint publishing deal with Sony Music Publishing in 2019, Clark later joined Relative Music Group, further solidifying his reputation as one of Nashville’s most versatile young writers.

Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, and raised in Jefferson, Georgia, Clark blends island influence with Southern roots — a duality that continues to shape both his sound and artistic direction. A true multi-hyphenate, Clark writes, produces, and mixes much of his own music, bringing a hands-on creative vision to every release.
