Bryan extolls being "Southern and Slow"
Friday, August 11, 2023 – Luke Bryan released a new song, "Southern and Slow," today.
"Southern and Slow," the third song off a forthcoming album, was written by Matt Dragstrem, Josh Thompson and Chase McGill and co-produced by Jeff Stevens and Jody Stevens.
"'Southern and Slow' reflects on simple times," said Bryan. "Those picture-perfect moments like the sun setting behind a water tower, honey dripping off a spoon, well, it doesn't get much countrier than that. Let's slow it down southern style because this life seems to be moving faster than ever."
Bryan's current radio single, "But I Got A Beer In My Hand," the follow up single to his 30th career number on "Country On," is on the charts.

The original 10 tracks are mostly in the vein of the pop laced chart toppers "One Margarita" and "Knockin' Boots."

After taking in Luke Bryan's "Born Here Live Here Die Here," the listener will never guess this full length was released during a pandemic. Maybe that's a good thing. After all, we might need a diversion from the international health crisis now and then. The release opens with "Knockin' Boots," which is how modern cowboys describe sexual intercourse. A few songs later, Bryan gives us the drinking song (and single) "One Margarita." In between, "What ...
Luke Bryan aims to please often, and that rarely goes unpunished. The Georgia native has a strong voice, some songwriting skill and even legitimate farming cred.
