Country superstar Bucky Covington is back with a brand new song, "Probably Won't." Written, produced, and released by Covington "Probably Won't" is already shooting up the music charts. The touching ballad, with lyrics like You should probably just come back home, but you probably won't get around to that, and time won't ever bring you back, is a relatable track about loving and letting go. Here, Covington answers his Essential 8 and talks about the song, his loyal fans, the outdoors, and more.
With any particular song, was there an “a-ha” moment when you knew the song was completed and perfect? My current single, “Probably Won’t,” kind of just fell on the paper. I think it’s a really relatable song – Everyone has been through some kind of break-up in their life and this song tugs at those emotions. I just wrote from the heart and everything fell right into place. What’s the best advice to give to a musician just starting out? The industry has changed a lot since I first got my start. There are so many platforms now that allow your music to be heard. Upload videos to YouTube, play shows around town and network – but most of all, always be kind and remember where you came from! What do you love most about being on the road? I’m really lucky and have a great group of loyal fans. I love meeting new ones at shows and seeing familiar faces in the audience. I wouldn’t be where I am today without them! Getting to see different parts of the country is a plus, too!
What has been your biggest success?
I’d say my first album going to #1. What an awesome feeling that was. I had just come off of American Idol and moved to Nashville to give music a shot. It was so rewarding and definitely one of the highlights of my career! Which song of yours gets the best crowd response? “A Different World,” “It’s Good To Be Us,” and “I’ll Walk” were my three #1 hits. I think people probably sing along the most to those. Favorite thing to do on a day off? I love the outdoors. Being on the water, riding my ATV and grilling outside are some of my favorite things to do. Song (of yours) you wish you would have released as a single and why? I am a big fan of “The Bible and the Belt” off my first album. I also really like “I’m Good” – it would probably be a tie between those two. Is there a professional “bucket list” item you would love to check off? I’d love to play the Grand Ole Opry as many times as possible. I have so much respect for it as a country artist, but also as a fan. Website, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
