GRAMMY, ACM, and CMA-nominated hit songwriter and artist Eric Paslay has announced his forthcoming aptly-named album Even If It Breaks Your Barefoot Friday Night. Featuring his take on some of his biggest hits as both an artist and a songwriter, the highly-respected musician released three songs today to kick-off the project. Fans can find them on their favorite platform. Additionally, a video for "The Driver" is now available featuring very personal and behind the scenes footage of Paslay on the road through the years. More songs will be released on April 1 with the full album available April 15.

"Barefoot Blue Jean Night" was a No. 1 hit for Jake Owen and named the No.1 Song of the Decade by Country Aircheck. It is Certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA. "The Driver" was released in 2016 by Charles Kelley featuring Dierks Bentley and Paslay and was nominated for a GRAMMY for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. "High Class" was originally released by Paslay in 2015 and written with Corey Crowder and Jesse Frasure. It went Top 40 on the Country charts and remains a fan favorite.
