Tyler Hubbard has a new song out, which he wrote with two of his close friends, and fellow country music singers. The father of three just released “Me For Me,” which he co-wrote with Thomas Rhett and Russell Dickerson.

“We weren’t even planning on writing that day but it just kinda happened,” Hubbard writes on social media, along with a photo of the three men and their wives. “It quickly became one of my favorite songs on the album. We know each other so well that I think this song could have only been written with these two.”

 

“Me For Me” is one of 18 songs on Hubbard’s forthcoming self-titled solo debut album, out on January 27. The new record also includes “35’s,” “Way Home,” “Everybody Needs a Bar,” “Inside and Out,” his recent No. 1 hit, “5 Foot 9,” as well as “Dancin’ In the Country,” the title track of his 2022 EP, and his current single.

“’Dancin’ In The Country’ is just a really fun, uptempo country song that I’m super excited to play live,” Hubbard says of the song. “I was fortunate enough to get to write this with Ross Copperman, Jon Nite and Keith Urban, who’s just incredible as a writer and a guitarist, and he and Ross Copperman really helped capture the feel and emotion of this song sonically. And also, me and Jon Nite really tried to dial in the lyrics, and they were also very helpful with that. [It was] just an incredible day of songwriting and a really cool song that came from it, and a song that sounds like nothing else on the project.”

Hubbard is moving full-speed ahead with his solo career, after ten years as one-half of the hit duo, Florida Georgia Line.

“I think the traditional mindset of people, when they hear of a band or duos breaking up and they’re going solo, it’s, ‘Well, okay, that’s cute. They’re going to have fun doing their solo stuff for a little while, and it will be what it is. And then they’ll go back and do their thing [together],’” Hubbard shared with Everything Nash and other outlets during a virtual media event.

“But. I think that challenge really pushes me to not be the statistic,” he continued. “I truly feel that Florida Georgia Line was just a chapter in the book, an important chapter, and one I’m forever grateful for. But it’s not my whole story. And so I am really excited and committed to giving this all I got.”
