Source-derived summary

Sorry for Nothing is the third studio album by Canadian country rock artist Cory Marks. It was primarily produced by Andrew Baylis, Kevin Churko, and Kile Odell, and released on December 6, 2024, via Better Noise Music. The album includes Marks' second single to U.S. rock radio "(Make My) Country Rock", as well as the singles "Drunk When I'm High", "Fast as I Can", and "Guilty", which were sent to various international country and rock radio formats. Marks released a follow-up album titled Sorry for Nothing Vol. 2 on October 3, 2025.

Background and promotion

In a press release, Marks stated the album "is really who I am," adding that he always wanted to 'pave his own lane' and that "whether you’re a rock fan, a metal fan or a country music fan, my mission is to reach anyone who feels a little different". He wanted the album to have "songs for partying, songs to look back on life and have a good cry, love songs" and "something for everyone". Marks wrote or co-wrote every song on the album, with the exception of the final song, a cover of Foo Fighters' "Learn to Fly". Marks elected to cover "Learn to Fly" as he is a pilot and a "huge aviation guy", and he and producer Kevin Churko wanted to make their own version of it that featured more steel guitar.

Marks embarked on his "Sorry for Nothing Tour" to support the album, which included headlining dates in Germany, France, and Canada, as well as festival stops in the Netherlands and Great Britain.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Sorry for Nothing” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Sorry, Nothing and album provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 6, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q135792608. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024 and 2025.

Critical limits

Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
