There’s been a lot of talk lately about “bro country” and the fact that a lot of country music is starting to sound the same, but The Cadillac Three believes their sound as well as some of the songs they’re writing for other artists are helping to stretch the boundaries of country music. “I think the way the Country Music genre’ is moving, you got people like Eric Church who’s pretty much just doin’ what he wants to do, kinda led the way for us a little bit, as far as openin’ some doors with radio,” says Jaren Johnston. “And then you got songs like, you know, a song that me and Tom Douglas and Jeff Steel wrote, ‘Meanwhile Back At Mama’s’. You’re startin’ to hear some real songs on the radio, which I’m glad to be a part of.”
The Cadillac Three’s latest single is a fun loving party anthem called “Party Like You.” It’s the follow up to their debut single, “The South.”
