Kane Brown’s Collaboration with Katelyn Brown: Love Songs That Hit Different

When it comes to country music power couples, the Browns are proving that sometimes the best duet partner is the one you share a last name with. Since getting married in 2018, their full-blown love story has fueled their music.  

Let’s be honest, Kane Brown’s collaboration with Katelyn hits different because it’s not just studio chemistry; it’s the real deal. Their romance has spilled over into their chart-topping songs that feel authentic, heartfelt, and sometimes make you feel like you’re third wheeling. We’re shining a spotlight on their musical partnership and how their relationship as husband and wife makes their collaborations even sweeter.  

Kane and Katelyn’s love story is what romantic ballads are made of. The two first crossed paths in 2015 at Kane’s very first show in Florida, where he was supposed to cameo in Katelyn’s music video but couldn’t make it because of scheduling. A year later, a mutual friend played cupid and brought Katelyn to another one of Kane’s shows. Sparks flew when Kane invited her to Nashville the very next day (when you know, you know). As Katelyn later put it: “Holy crap, I’m going to marry him.” Spoiler: she was right.  

Kane felt the same way and wasted no time making it Facebook official with a heartfelt post gushing, “Luckily I found my other half... She keeps me sane, she keeps me happy she’s my girl. God bless” with a red heart emoji (we love a man who wears his heart on his sleeve, or in this case, on his Facebook status).   

By October 12, 2018, the couple tied the knot in Franklin, Tennessee, making their country music power duo status official. With her powerhouse vocals and his knack for heartfelt songwriting, their personal connection naturally set the stage for collaborations like “Thank God,” because when you feel your marriage is what love songs are made of, why not actually make one?  

When they finally teamed up for their first duet, “Thank God,” it wasn’t just another track on Kane’s third studio album, Different Man; it was the moment country music fans collectively said, “Oh, so this is what love sounds like.”  

Released in September 2022, the song exploded right off the bat, and rightly so! It debuted at No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 5 on Hot Country Songs. By February 2023, it had climbed all the way to No. 1 on the Country Airplay chart, making Kane and Katelyn the second married couple to ever top it (the first being Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s “It’s Your Love” back in 1997—no surprise over there).  

Their CMT Music Awards debut in April 2023 sealed the deal: performing with a romantic atmosphere and candlelight, locking eyes, and ending the song with a kiss. The Browns gave us the kind of chemistry that money can’t buy (and Hollywood can’t replicate). Winning Video of the Year proved what fans already knew: Kane and Katelyn’s “Thank God” is a duet that will be hard to beat.  

Kane kicked off 2025 on a high note (literally) with the release of his fourth studio album, The High Road, on January 24th, and he’s called it his “favorite album I’ve released.” Understandable since it featured two duets with his favorite collaborator, Katelyn. The tracks, one country and one pop, include the cheekily titled single “Body Talk” and the heartfelt “Do Us Apart.”  

And because Kane never does anything halfway, he’ll be launching The High Road Tour from August 23 to October 10, with stops in Dublin, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, and London.
