Time McGraw Talks New Song “Song for America”
Tim McGraw, who is expected to perform in Nashville, dropped a brand new song at the end of May. Titled “Song For America”, the new track paints a picture of what America means to so many people. It even references The Beach Boys, diners, Wrangler jeans, and “six-pack dreams”.
“‘Song For America’, I mean, it’s the perfect song for America’s 250th birthday,” McGraw explained of the track on Instagram. “What I loved about it is, it’s just full of nostalgia and it’s full of, just sort of this, Rockwellian painting, of America. And I didn’t want anything to be political, or be objective or you know, anything that causes any controversy in the song, because this is a time to celebrate all of us…”
Fans can hear McGraw perform the new song live by tuning into watch the Disney Celebrates America: Nashville’s Star-Spangled Bash.
