American Songwriter · 2 hours ago

Country artist Riley Green is set to release his forthcoming album 'That's Just Me' in September, a 19-song project that showcases his collaborative approach to songwriting. The tracklist includes four major features with established country figures, whilst several singles have already circulated ahead of the official release date. Green's recent appointment as a coach on the television programme The Voice adds to his current prominence in the industry.

A particularly notable element of the album is 'Think As You Drunk,' which builds upon Toby Keith's 2005 track 'As Good As I Was' by incorporating a vocal sample from the late performer. Green explained that the creative team intentionally crafted the song in Keith's style and secured approval from his family before including the sample, a decision he characterised as both poignant and celebratory. The album also features collaborations with rising artist Jake Worthington, legendary duo Brooks & Dunn, and Alabama's Randy Owen, alongside touring companion Hannah McFarland.

  • Riley Green's 19-track album 'That's Just Me' launches Sept. 18 with features from Brooks & Dunn, Jake Worthington, and Randy Owen
  • The project includes a tribute to late country singer Toby Keith, sampling and featuring his voice on 'Think As You Drunk'
  • Several tracks already released; anticipation builds around songs with personal significance to Green's public life
