CURRENT SINGLE: “Hard Days”
Brantley Gilbert calls each one of his albums ‘chapters of his life,” which is why he only records songs that he has lived through or can relate to or really sing about from the heart. But with as much writing as he does, every now and then Brantley will be part of writing a great song that doesn’t completely match that criteria in the moment. “A lot of other writers come out and write year-round, and man, you never know when you’re gonna tag on a subject and write a song, and you’re thinkin’ off the bat, maybe this is an outside song,” says Brantley. “Maybe I need to pitch this. And then,” he laughs and says, “something happens in your life and you’re like, ‘Oh, okay. Well, there you go.’”
Brantley’s current single, “Hard Days,” is definitely a very personal song written about the trials and tribulations he’s gone through that have taught him to trust in God and cherish all the good times he’s been blessed with in his life.
