“Country On” was written by Mark Nesler, David Frasier, Mitch Oglesby, and Styles Haury, produced by Jeff Stevens and co-produced by Jody Stevens, and features Sarah Buxton on background vocals.
Upon release, Bryan noted how the song features “a different sound for me.” The Capitol Nashville track does indeed have a slightly unusual approach by the country superstar, delivered in a baritone style. But it nevertheless exudes plenty of potential to become an anthem, with its celebratory, cheerleading “Hey! Hey! USA” lyrics and rock guitar running throughout, along with a fiddle feature.
Bryan will be playing “Country On” on his Raised Up Right amphitheater tour of 30-plus cities across the US, which arrived with a sellout show in Charleston, West Virginia in June, features special guests Riley Green, Mitchell Tenpenny, and DJ Rock. Bryan then resumes his residency at The Theatre at Resorts World in Las Vegas.
