Georgia Native to Deliver New Music This Fall
“Whiskey In Me” Out Now
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Brandon Whitley has signed to DARE Records, helmed by CEO and Founder (and GRAMMY-winning producer) Michael-Anthony “Mooki” Taylor. The Georgia-born singer-songwriter celebrates the new partnership with a new track, “Whiskey In Me,” available now.
Whitley says, “After seeing how hyped the room was after my team at TruMuzik and I met with DARE Records, I knew they were the ones to help recreate that same reaction with the fans. Their energy and excitement about getting the song out matched mine, and that’s a huge deal when deciding to partner up at this level. We could tell we really had something! I’m just excited to give the world a chance to hear this new song and I’m pumped to have DARE Records on board to help make that possible and in a bigger way than ever before!”
Hailing from rural GA, Nashville-based Whitley’s music is a tapestry of elements and sounds as versatile and diverse as his own journey. His exurban hometown of Monroe, GA is nestled between a college town, Athens, GA, and the bustling metropolis of Atlanta. As a result, his musical influences are varied and rich: elements of rock, blues, and country are woven together, resulting in a unique sound that lends itself seamlessly to the newly diversified and modern country music landscape.
Taylor says, “Brandon Whitley’s ‘Whiskey In Me’ had me at the drop of that undeniable hook: ‘I just wanna love you!’ Having lived in Music City myself, and felt the pulse of the hottest in country music being created and released, I knew instantly that this song is a bona fide, Nashville-birthed hit! And not to mention… that voice!”
Whitley co-wrote “Whiskey In Me” with Autumn Marie Buysse and Chase McDaniel. The song was recorded at Saxman Studios in Nashville with Grady Saxman (Luke Combs) on drums, Devin Malone on acoustic guitar, Sol Philcox-Littlefield (Luke Combs) on electric guitar, Luke Moseley on keys, and Lee Francis (Jon Pardi) on bass.
