Multiple CMA and 26x CCMA Award winner Gord Bamford stays true to the country sound that has helped define his decorated career with the release of his new single “One Heartbeat From Heaven.” Produced by Bamford and Phil O’Donnell, the emotionally infused track from his forthcoming 11^th studio album Fire It Up due out April 28, via Anthem Records embraces themes of caregiving, loss, compassion, empathy, and most important – hope. An expression of gratitude, love, and support for those loved “One Heartbeat From Heaven” is available at all digital retailers and Country Radio now.

“I feel like I have never heard a lyric truer than ‘we’re all just One Heartbeat From Heaven’, shares Bamford. “The first time I heard it, I cried, it’s one of those songs that has an instantly profound impact. Life has hard moments and sometimes it takes a certain situation or a moment in a person's life to realize that compassion and empathy go a long way. I want to thank Buddy Owens and Galen Griffin for writing this and sending it my way, and a special thanks to David Bratton and his choir for adding an uplifting soulful performance that enhances the message of hope on this song. These types of songs can have the ability to change people's lives and I'm forever grateful to be a part of that.”

Helen Murphy, Anthem Chief Executive Officer said, “’One Heartbeat From Heaven’ is one of the greatest songs Gord has recorded. From the first time he shared it with me I knew it had the potential to be a global hit. It comes from the heart and is so powerful, inspiring you to live in the moment and be grateful for the journey no matter how painful or sad. This song is for everyone, and we need it now.”

With a brand-new album on the horizon, Bamford shares, “I’m so excited for this new album, it’s full of songs that mean a lot to me personally and I can’t wait to share the new music on tour this year. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone on the road, as we're going to be playing everywhere and anywhere. Hope you all come out and catch a show.”

Following his own time-tested formula for nearly two decades while bolstering 100 million streams and 5 billion global audience impressions at radio, Bamford continues to make country music that appeals to fans around the world. The Australian-born, Alberta-raised neo-traditional artist delivers song after song that blends hard moments with powerful and compassionate reflections.
