Tyler Hubbard Goes Number One at Country Radio with “Back Then Right Now”
Tyler Hubbard earns his third number one as a solo artist at country radio with his song “Back Then Right Now.” Get all the details here.
Tyler Hubbard has been a mainstay in country music for a decade now. Since embarking on his solo career, everything the singer has touched has been accepted by mainstream country fans. This week, Hubbard has earned his third consecutive number one single at country radio with his song, “Back Then Right Now,” which follows previous number ones, “5 Foot 9,” and “Dancin’ In The Country.”
Written by the singer with David Garcia, Jessie Jo Dillon, and Geoff Warburton,”Back Then Right Now” is nostalgia in a song. Throughout the lyrics, Hubbard shares about all the changes that have come from today’s landscape like social media and less connection. He sings about wishing for a bit more of his former life and our upbringing in the now. Lyrically, the song embodies the soul of country music. Sonically, the song brings today’s influences to the forefront, something Hubbard has always been great at.
“I could use some back then, right now // ’98 Chevy with the tailgate down // FM only with the gold up loud // Burnin’ up the night // Innocent and wild // I could use a little more wide open // Back when all I wanted was the hand I was holdin’ // Livin’ in the moment // With the good time crowd // Makin’ life count // Damn, I could use a little more // Back then, right now // Back then, right now”
While Hubbard’s career as the Florida Georgia Line frontman was one to proud of, it is clear that this new trajectory is going to be even bigger and better than ever. Congrats to Hubbard and his team on their third number one!
