In addition to releasing two songs from the album earlier this year; “Beautiful As You” in May and “Gone Country” in June, Rhett recently debuted another track from the project titled, “Overdrive,” which he says is another example of just how proud this project makes him.

“I feel like this whole record was sort of made with a very free mindset of whatever feels good goes,” he shared with Audacy’s Scotty Kay while at Chicago’s Windy City Smokeout . “There was no box for me, which is how it should be. It’s supposed to be fun.”

He continued, “I wrote Overdrive at a writing camp in Chattanooga with a couple buddies of mine [and] if you know me, you know I’m a sucker for nostalgia. I kind of touched into my younger high school self and basically, this song is just the adrenaline and the feeling of going and picking a girl up on the first date… no matter what plans you had with your friends, they just get completely destroyed if a girl calls you.”

Rhett hopes the joy he found while creating the album with radiate to those that listen. “I’m so jacked,” he said of how he feels being so close to sharing the full album. “I still, to this day, listen all the way through the album at least once a day and that has really never happened to me… I always kind of burn out a little bit.”

He continued, “The finest part to me is every couple of weeks, I find a new favorite on the record.”

We’re counting down the days until we get to hear all our new favorites, but until then, hear more about the album, inspiration behind it, and the connection Thomas Rhett has to Chicago by listening to his entire conversation with Audacy’s Scotty Kay above.
