Some songs arrive to remind us that no one goes through chaos alone. ‘I’VE GOT FRIENDS’, the new release by kylekelly, is exactly the kind of track that speaks about support, community, and the invisible bonds that appear when everything else seems to fall apart.

It’s an honest song, built with the sensitivity that already defines the artist, but also with a very rock-driven, luminous energy that shows a new stage in his sound.

‘I’VE GOT FRIENDS’ grows fast. It starts a little intimate, almost like a confession, and within seconds explodes into a chorus that feels like collective reinforcement, that moment when you remember there are hands around you ready to hold you.

This year, kylekelly went from playing small rooms to opening for Daniel Seavey on his Second Wind Tour, traveling across the United States, Europe, and Australia, with a set that showcased him as a true showman. Fast, fun, emotional, and naturally charismatic onstage. In Australia, one of the tour’s most viral moments unfolded when he joined Jack Gray to perform ‘Sally’ by Role Model.

Now, after completing the European leg of the tour alongside Seavey, with shows in Dublin, London, Manchester, Prague, Paris, and Cologne, kylekelly takes the next step, announcing his first headline tour, set for February 2026. It is a natural leap after months of building a global audience, one that watched him go from opening slots to commanding mid-size stages around the world.

‘I’VE GOT FRIENDS’ works as a bridge connecting the growth Kylekelly has experienced this year with the new chapter he’s ready to begin. It closes the year with a sense of relief and opens the next with the certainty that, no matter what comes, we won’t face it alone.
