Big Time Rush's Kendall Schmidt Goes Solo With 'Good Love'

10-10-2026

(BHM) Kendall Schmidt officially re-introduces himself as a solo artist with the warm, reflective track "Good Love" out now. After years of gracing global television screens and touring the world, the Big Time Rush star is ready to bring listeners into his grounded, sincere sonic world today.

Made at home, the soft, stripped-back tune by Schmidt was born from a moment of deep self-reflection on the ways love has changed him. With his artistic and personal growth on full display, Schmidt shares, "I really wanted to make something stripped down and simple, using Bon Iver's earlier songs and the vocal style as inspiration. The feeling behind the song is the change in attitude you can have with 'good love.'

Sometimes, we underestimate the weight we carry on our shoulders. We can get easily irritated and grouchy. Then, when you and your partner's love languages match up, it's incredible how quickly that attitude can change. In some ways, it can be unrecognizable to the person you were before."

Kendall Schmidt is best known as the star of boy band and Nickelodeon's TV series, Big Time Rush. Since 2009, Schmidt has been part of a pop culture phenomenon that grew globally and beyond television, extending onto major stages with three headline tours and selling out Madison Square Garden and Amsterdam's Ziggo Dome. Following the band, Schmidt formed an alt-pop duo called Heffron Drive and continued to create and collaborate, including with Hilary Duff. With full creative control and new music on the way that shifts away from stadium-level pop, Schmidt is ready to settle down. Now, with a wife and daughter, the intimate, carefully crafted music represents Schmidt's newfound perspective on fatherhood, deep, long-lasting love through honest, sincere storytelling.
