Multi-Platinum-selling superstar and multi–ACM Award-winner Cole Swindell has released his highly-anticipated new song, “Dale, Jr.,” in honour of Father’s Day.
The track will be on his upcoming fifth studio album, Spanish Moss for Warner Music Nashville, Spanish Moss, scheduled to be released June 27.
“Dale, Jr.,” written by Cole Swindell, Greylan James and Matt Alderman, is a true story about Cole and Jr. just doing “what missin’ dad son’s do” – connecting on and reminiscing and remembering the memory of their Dads.
“It’s one of the most emotional songs on this album,” said Swindell. “It’s track three, obviously, on purpose as a little nod to Dale, Sr and I don’t think you would expect what you’re about to hear. It’s just a true story. Dale Jr. reached out to me years back when I had, ‘You Should Be Here’ and he said he could relate to the song after the loss of his Dad, Dale, Sr. Obviously, he had never heard of my dad or met him, but it just shows you that people are real people. They’re dads, too. It’s not about what their occupations were. Dale Jr. and I connected over a common bond of loss. ‘We just did what missing dads sons do’ is one of my favorite lines I’ve ever been a part of writing. I hope Dale finds his song as special as I do.”
Swindell has been releasing new music from his upcoming album Spanish Moss, including his new radio single “We Can Always Move On,” the album’s debut No. 1 single “Forever To Me,” as well as the digital-only releases of “Bottom Of It,” “Dirty Dancing,” “We Can Always Move On,” “Spanish Moss,” “Kill A Prayer,” and “One Day” – all of which will be on Spanish Moss, which will be available on June 27.
