Canadian country superstar Brett Kissel dropped by q in support of his new record We Were That Song. It's an album that sees him push the limits of what modern country music sounds like, half bar-room and half arena rock. He breaks down his arena ambitions and opens up about why starting it all in a small town in northern Alberta has kept him grounded throughout his career. Plus, he brings his band by to perform from the album.
