New single and video call for unity, empathy, and hope in a divided world
Nashville, TN —Platinum-selling country artist Michael Peterson, known for his #1 hit “From Here to Eternity” and chart favorite “Drink, Swear, Steal & Lie,” is releasing a powerful new version of the timeless anthem “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother.”

Together, they deliver a stirring rendition of the classic song—an anthem of compassion and solidarity that feels urgently relevant in today’s climate.
“This song has always been a beacon of brotherhood,” said Peterson. “I recorded it now because we desperately need reminders that kindness and unity are stronger than fear and division. My hope is that when people hear it, they’ll feel inspired to lift one another up—whether across the street or across the globe.”
The single is available as of September 19th, 2025 across all major streaming platforms. The release is a special video spotlighting real-life stories of everyday people helping one another in extraordinary ways—a visual reminder that empathy and action can bridge divides.
