Penned by HARDY with Ashley Gorley, Ben Johnson, and Hunter Phelps, and produced by Joey Moi with co-production from Derek Wells, the second single from debut album A ROCK is a lump-in-your-throat tribute to a fallen friend. Last week, the heartstring-tugging anthem was chosen by Billboard for a “Makin’ Tracks” feature, praised as “a powerful swipe at a difficult topic,” tackling it head on with “a percussive track about a good ol’ boy who has moved on to the hereafter.”
The “tear-jerking track comes with an equally-compelling video” (Sounds Like Nashville) already viewed over 9 MILLION times, directed by Justin Clough and shot in Lynnville, TN. The reminiscent clip features HARDY’s real-life friends and co-writers (including Johnson, Phelps, Jameson Rodgers, Jake Mitchell and more), portraying the song’s narrative with heartfelt camaraderie on screen – watch it here.
