Rick Monroe & The Hitmen unleash their brand-new single “Our Love” via Asylum 1212 Records /TLG/Virgin Music Group.
“Our Love,” is a soul-soaked new single that channels the golden era of 1970s country-rock while speaking directly to today’s listeners. Warm harmonies, ringing guitars, and emotionally honest storytelling collide in a song that celebrates a love that bends, bruises, and grows stronger—but never breaks.
With clear echoes of The Eagles and Jackson Browne, “Our Love” feels both familiar and fresh, pairing classic Americana textures with modern polish. Rick Monroe’s unmistakable vocal delivery carries a message of resilience and devotion, making the track a natural fit for fans of Chris Stapleton, Brothers Osborne, and roots-driven country-rock.
Adding to the song’s emotional impact, the official lyric video for “Our Love” was crowd-sourced from friends and fans, featuring candid, real-life photos submitted by the community that has supported Monroe throughout his career. The result is a heartfelt visual companion that mirrors the song’s message—authentic moments of love, connection, and shared history, told through the faces of real people.
Built on soulful guitar lines and a laid-back groove that invites repeat listens, “Our Love” is the kind of song that belongs on long highway drives, sunset playlists, and radio rotations that value craft and connection. The Hitmen’s tight musicianship gives the track a lived-in, road-tested feel that reflects the band’s deep musical chemistry.
“‘Our Love’ is about staying grounded when life pulls you in every direction,” says Monroe. “It’s about choosing love, even when it isn’t perfect—and seeing how fans connected to that message made this release even more meaningful.”
Rick Monroe & The Hitmen have long been known for blending heartland rock, classic country, and Southern soul into a sound that feels timeless rather than trendy. With “Our Love,” they reaffirm their place in the Americana and country-rock landscape—delivering a song, and a visual experience, rooted in honesty, nostalgia, and community.

The birth of the Hitmen. For years Rick Monroe has been a solo artist hiring players as needed and doing the Nashville shuffle of interchangeable bands, but during covid everything changed. In 2020, Rick and the band, with Bobby Perkins & Alan Beeler, were set to have an amazing year starting off with a West Coast tour when the world shut down. Instead of everyone going their own way, they all stuck together and started streaming live shows from their basements, garages and living rooms. At the same time Rick and Alan Beeler started a standing Tuesday writing meeting which eventually became the bulk of their current album. Through some mutual friends, Rick met Malcolm Springer and they decided to track a few songs and see how it went. Once in the studio it was obvious that this was quickly becoming more of a band situation and when Malcolm brought Jason Bohl in, the sound finally came together. Rick joked one night about how the band was killing it and bam- someone said “The Hitmen”- and that was that.
