Watch the Video for the Poignant Title Track
Home Sweet Hell Tour This Fall with Stops in Atlanta, Philadelphia and More
August 22, 2025 – Today, Austin Snell has released his new EP Home Sweet Hell via River House Artists/Warner Music Nashville. Produced by Andrew Baylis (Brantley Gilbert, Jelly Roll), the EP finds the Nashville-based singer-songwriter examining an upbringing steeped in hard lessons, raised at the crossroads of garage-rocking grit and country grace. Along with the release, Austin shares the music video for the emotionally charged title track, a no-holds-barred portrayal of how appearances can sometimes be deceiving.

About “Home Sweet Hell,” Austin says: “This song is the most vulnerable and forthcoming I’ve ever been as an artist. Being truly honest with the world can be one of the scariest things, but I feel like there are people out there without a voice who need honesty.”
On the video: “Every now and then, you write a song that is bigger than yourself. All the thoughts of its success go out the window to make room for the thoughts of just how much it could impact someone’s life. This video gave me so much more anxiety than any other one I’ve been a part of because I knew how delicate the story was and knew it had the potential to be so powerful. This is easily the most meaningful video, song and project I’ve ever worked on. I hope it helps you in some way.”
“Home Sweet Hell” follows the soul-baring “Family Tree,” which was named a Must-Hear Country Song by Billboard who declared, “This clear-eyed but hopeful track is one of Snell’s most captivating to date.” Featuring co-writes with first-rate songwriters like Nicolette Hayford (Lainey Wilson), Riley Thomas (The Struts), Conor Matthews (Megan Moroney) and more, Home Sweet Hell is a result of what happens when one fights the nostalgia of the past to find their truth, without pulling any punches along the way. The seven-track EP also includes the previously released twang-metal bangers “Drunk,” “Miles,” "I Mean It," and “Heavy Metal,” all of which have garnered support from CMT, Holler and MusicRow.
Home Sweet Hell follows Austin’s 2024 full-length debut album Still Bleeding, which had The Tennessean calling him “an artist worth watching.” From cultural institutions like the Grand Ole Opry (where he recently invited fellow riser Hudson Westbrook to make his Opry debut) to major festivals like CMA Fest, Stagecoach and more, he’s been lighting crowds on fire while continuing to earn respect for his blazing vocal rasp.
Fusing hard-hitting aggression with the deep-feeling confessions of a country troubadour, Austin has spent the last two years turning social-media stardom into brash-and-broken hits like “Excuse the Mess” and “Pray All the Way Home,” racking up 383 million global career streams to date and a fanatical fanbase. Born in Georgia and a veteran of the U.S. Air Force, he was raised on everything from Alan Jackson to Nirvana and Nickelback, a contrast which constantly shows in his original “grunge country” style.
This fall, Austin will bring his new music out on the road with his headlining Home Sweet Hell Tour featuring stops in Atlanta, Philadelphia and more – see below for a full list of dates or visit his website.
