Chris Young will release a new single called “Famous Friends,” featuring one of his famous friends, Kane Brown, on Friday (Nov. 20th). Kane joined Chris on his “The Quad with Chris Young” podcast yesterday (Monday, Nov. 16th).
Chris co-wrote “Famous Friends” while at a headline tour stop in Tampa in 2018. The autobiographical song mentions Rutherford County, where Chris grew up in Tennessee, and Kane’s hometown of Hamilton County along with Nashville’s Davidson County, also known as Music City.
Chris said, “This song is a piece of me, and it means a lot because it’s honest and it’s real-life. Plus, Kane and I are good friends and being able to have that history together, it adds a whole other level to the track. 'Famous Friends’ is one of my favorite songs – it’s personal and it's a lot of fun, so I'm glad it's getting out there for people to hear it.”
The song's lyrics include “I’ve got some famous friends you’ve probably never heard of, But back in Rutherford County our crowd is second to none, You might not know ‘em here in this big city we’re in,
But when I go back home I’ve got some famous friends.”
