Mitchell Tenpenny is rolling out his latest single, “Speed of Light,” available to stream now. The track, co-written with Teddy Swims, Jesse Hampton, and Dallas Wilson, also lends its name to Tenpenny’s 2026 headlining tour.

Mitchell shares: “I wrote ‘Speed of Light’ with some of my best friends, including one of my favorite artists and close friends—Teddy Swims. We started the session talking about euphoric songs, songs that feel like outer space, and that’s how we ended up on ‘Speed of Light.’ When we finished, Teddy recorded it with his vocals. But the more I listened to it, the more I felt like it was my song—despite how challenging it is to go in and record after Teddy! I didn’t have a super great love song in my catalog that reflects who I am today, so this feels like my song.”

Alongside the release, Tenpenny has premiered an official music video, created with Taillight executive producer Matt Houser, producer Nick Lantz, and director Justin Key. The visual was shot in Gallatin, Tennessee, just outside Nashville.
