TheWesternGuide 'Drink It Away'
TheWesternGuide is back with another country-pop anthem, adding new single Drink It Away to his growing catalogue.
Packed with a catchy hook and relatable lyrics, the track has been stuck in our heads since it dropped, this part in particular: “Drink till the sun and moon / Then drink all the way down, all the way down / ’til the afternoon.”
Blending warm guitar and percussion, the track leans into that classic country comfort sound, while delivering a shot of honest emotion beneath the surface.
Written by TheWesternGuide and produced by JARNA, Drink It Away explores the pain of walking away from a tough situation, and the all-too-familiar temptation to find a quick fix at the bottom of a glass.
Because sometimes you just want to drink it all away… responsibly, of course!
