About the Artist
Following a busy CMA Fest run and a breakout year that continues to gain momentum, rising country artist Jake Banfield returns with his new single “Sun Goes Down” — an unmistakable summer anthem built for late nights, open skies, and festival-sized singalongs.
The release follows Banfield’s official CMA Fest performance, along with high-profile appearances alongside Waka Flocka, Country Night, and 2 Friends, plus a recent collaborative release with Waka Flocka and Country Night. It marks another major moment in a fast-rising trajectory for the genre-blurring artist, who has been steadily carving out his own lane in country music.
Written alongside an impressive team of hitmakers — Joe London (Thomas Rhett, Pitbull), Grant Averill (Bailey Zimmerman, Blake Whiten), Peter Fenn (Myles Smith, Nicky Youre), and Stephen Ellrod (Charlieonnafriday, Fitz and the Tantrums) — “Sun Goes Down” captures the feeling of summer at full volume. With its bright hooks, effortless energy, and ready-made crowd appeal, the track positions Banfield with another undeniable crowd favourite.
“Sun Goes Down” is the latest step forward — a feel-good, high-energy release that showcases Banfield’s ability to turn a moment into an anthem.
