- Published in News
PRESS RELEASE: Canadian Inspirational/Country Artist Amanda Hagel is back in 2026 with a highly anticipated uplifting and powerful new single, “Built That Way”. In 2025, Amanda’s one-of-a-kind release “Country Roads” a beautifully haunting and soulful rendition of a John Denver classic was well received at country radio and landed her notable media coverage internationally working with Brickshore Media out of Nashville. In 2024 and later in 2025, Amanda made the leap to promote her powerful singles “Call on Me” and “The Believer” in the Christian/Gospel market teaming up with Vision PR Solutions for a campaign that was incredibly well executed and received allowing Amanda to reach new audiences across the country and around the world.
Amanda celebrated huge success in 2023 for the release of her heartfelt song “These Roots” working with Aristo Media landing over 40 media placements in the U.S. market on TV affiliates including video premier placements on the national syndicated networks Heartland & CMT.com as well as placements on major networks like Now That’s Country, Nashville Country Network & Sunday’s Kind of Country. Drawing on her past success in both markets, for the first time Amanda and her teams will be cross promoting this new single in both Country and Christian/Gospel.
For this song, Amanda worked with producer Bart McKay at Bart McKay Productions along with an incredible cast of musicians, to create musical art that delivers an elevated soul stirring energy paired with a message of empowerment and upliftment.
As an artist, Amanda bases her creative direction on the promptings of the heart with the pure intention that music is not just meant to be heard but to be felt. Built That Way is an invitation to remind us that we are so much more than just physical. That what resides within each of us, how we are built, the true essence of our divine nature, has the power to transform and direct our lives in the most incredible way. Being built in the image of God and the characteristics of our divinity serve to prepare us for where we find ourselves. At a sort of crossroads, in a rapidly changing world as we enter an age of artificial intelligence and advancing technology, there is no doubt that this song's message of remembrance has come at the most pivotal time.
Amanda will also be releasing a brand-new music video for the single set to be released on May 25th. The video was filmed at a beautiful airBnB called the Hayloft in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The space provided a visual blend of prairie architecture with a modern aesthetic perfect for Amanda to deliver an elevated and engaging performance along with secondary storytelling scenes that take her audience into deeper meaning of the song. Amanda’s collection of visual art has had incredible success reaching huge audiences with her music videos having collective views on Facebook & Instagram reaching upwards of 1M and over 140K total viewership on her YouTube channel.
