CURRENT SINGLE – “7500 OBO”
In the Paramount+ television series 1883, Tim McGraw plays James Dutton, the great grandfather of Kevin Costner’s character on the Paramount+ show Yellowstone. In 1883, Tim also has a daughter named Elsa, and his character’s relationship with Elsa reminds him a lot of his relationship with his three real-life daughters. “You see a lot in the relationship between that father and daughter,” says Tim. “I think a lot of it is explained in one line – she loves like Margaret, she fights like me. And to me, that says everything about James and Elsa‘s relationship, that he understands her and he understands the passion that she has. But I also think he knows that she’s a grown-up. He’s wary, as any father would be, but he has enough trust and respect for her that he tries to stay out of her way as much as he can and still be a guiding hand when it’s important.”
Tim and Faith Hill, who plays Margaret Dutton in 1883, have three daughters in their 20’s in real life, and Tim says the way his character relates to and interacts with Elsa on 1883, “That’s the same way that I’ve always tried to treat my daughters. We’ve taught our girls from the very beginning to be strong-willed.” Tim can’t help but laugh when he says, “And sometimes that’s backfired on me, to have four women in my house who are very strong-willed. And so, sometimes dad gets thrown under the bus.”
