Brian Kelley Reveals His ‘Tennessee Truth’ on New Solo Album: ‘I Wasn’t Holding Anything Back’
Brian Kelley discusses his new album, Tennessee Truth.
As the Florida half of duo Florida Georgia Line, Kelley helped usher in country music’s “bro-country” era with a slate of FGL hits including two songs that would go on to be certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America signifying sales in excess of 10 million: “Cruise” and the Bebe Rexha collab “Meant to Be.” The duo earned 16 Billboard Country Airplay No. Kelley took an intentional, diligent approach to spilling his Tennessee Truth, ultimately co-writing eight of the dozen songs, and working with writers including Thomas Archer, Matt McGinn, Kaitlin Owen, Blake Pendergrass, Jimmy Robbins and Michael Tyler. After Kelley released “Kiss My Boots,” which he wrote with Dylan Guthro, some listeners speculated the song’s vengeful lyrics of betrayal were aimed at his former FGL bandmate Hubbard.
