Country music tunesmith, Bradley Gaskin, has a new single, “Accidentally Drunk,” that is making some noise on the country music radio scene. Produced by the legendary Keith Stegall (Alan Jackson, Zac Brown Band) and written by a collaboration of award-winning talent, including Ashley McBryde (ACM, CMT, CMA, and Grammy-winning singer-songwriter), Justin Ebach (multi-platinum, SESAC award-winning songwriter and producer), and Dan Smalley, this country ballad dives into the emotional battle of staying sober after a burdensome breakup. The song will serve as the title track for Gaskin's upcoming album. You can listen to it here.
Country music radio has taken a liking to "Accidentally Drunk" giving it some nice playtime. The song has climbed to the #1 spot on the Truly Indie Artist CDX chart. On the MusicRow chart, Gaskin's “Accidentally Drunk” continues its rise, moving from #39 to #36, ranking Bradley as the #3 most-played independent artist on the chart. Additionally, for the week ending on September 28, Gaskin's single was the highest-charting truly independent record at Mediabase Activator, landing at #53.
This is such a great comeback story! Bradley Gaskin, signed with Columbia Nashville in 2010 and released his debut single, "Mr. Bartender", a solo penned track. His single charted on country radio for 20 weeks leading him to a Top 40 country hit. Soon after his success, Columbia's direction shifted, and Gaskin was released from his contract.
He put down his Gibson J45 for a few years and took up work in construction and at a local elementary school in his hometown of Duck Springs, Alabama. But then an opportunity arose to get himself back into music when he recently became the very first signed artist for newly created 30A Life Records. Bradley Gaskin is currently tracking his first full-length record in over a decade with "Accidentally Drunk" kicking it off.
Gaskin will be playing live on October 24, 2024 at Nashville's Whiskey Jam and on October 26 at Grindstone Cowboy in Eagleville, TN. A good chance to see a rising star live whose career is just peaking. For more information about this artist, check out his Facebook page.
