Diamond-certified Country superstar Brian Kelley has shared his latest single, “Dirt Road Date Night,” which is out now via Big Machine Records.
“Dirt Road Date Night” is a romantic anthem all about stepping off the beaten path and spending some time alone alongside the country line. Inspired by personal moonlit memories with his wife Brittney and co-written with John Byron and Jimmy Robbins, the single once again captures his recent songwriting trend toward a stress-free life: trading in hustle-and-bustle for true love and simple pleasures. Built on the gentle bounce of a slow roll down a gravel road, its lyrics find two hearts merged and committed to a long haul together.
“Dirt Road Date Night” is lifted from his upcoming, full-length debut album, Tennessee Truth, which will be released on May 10th via Big Machine Records. Hit-making producer Dann Huff further helps Kelley create a throwback collision of upbeat Country and down-home Pop, perfect for a steamy night out where the cattails sway. With Kelley’s deep-South vocal dialed up to its most smitten, a funky bass line, and breezy guitars, the windows-down “Dirt Road Date Night” begs for a long, long drive.
