NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Fresh off the sandy shores with his recent release of “Gulf of Mexico,” Country music icon and philanthropist Tracy Lawrence is back with the foot-stomping track “Pretty Dang Good.” The song is the third taste of his six-track forthcoming EP, Out Here In It, due June 7. Whiskey Riff exclusively premiered the electrifying accompanying music video 
 
“I’ve never done anything like it,” Lawrence tells Whiskey Riff. “I love the opening line, ‘Some days you’re chicken, some days you’re feathers.’ It’s just so different from anything I ever considered myself doing but I love the groove of it and it’s fun to sing…I haven’t done a lot of songs like this throughout my career. I’ve always been more of a serious artist, heartbreak songs, crying in your beer kind of stuff. So this will be something a little bit different. I love singing it live, it’s a really fun song to sing.”
 
Written by Wyatt McCubbin, Bobby Pinson and Carson Chamberlain, “Pretty Dang Good” represents a flash of sound that instantly stamps this as a new chapter from the “Country music luminary” (American Songwriter). Serving as the opening track on Out Here In it, the tune features a groove-heavy sway that spreads through the bounce of the melody, matched by an undeniable slide of fiddle. It highlights all that life inevitably brings, while encouraging that any day above ground is a good one.
 
 
 
 
Cut from some of Nashville’s hottest songwriters including Rodney Clawson, Devin Dawson, Jacob Durrett, Wyatt McCubbin, Lee Thomas Miller, Ernest Keith Smith and more, “the pure Country hitmaker” (Taste of Country) is set to unveil his summer EP, Out Here In It, on Friday, June 7. The project’s already released title-track, “Out Here In It,” takes listeners on a retrospective journey through the “strings-and-steel embellished production” that “perfectly underscores his meditation” (MusicRow), while the recent release “Gulf of Mexico” offers a neon lit, slow dance spin to the center of the EP.
