“Buddy With a Boat” The Foot Stomping New Single from Brett Stafford Smith

Sometimes I feel old even though I’m really not. In country music today I see too many guys with plucked eyebrows and designer jeans. Is there anything wrong with it? Not really, but they are starting to pull away from the people who made country music. 

The blue collar working class is still hear and is actually growing. They are not the $100 jean type with a monthly gym membership and drinking overpriced water. They are the people who work long hours making sure this world goes round one more time.  Dusty boots, old trucks and a friend’s boat may be all they have, but to them, it’s all they need.

When I heard Brett Stafford Smith’s latest song “Buddy With a Boat”, I knew that this was a song for those with some dust on their boots like me.  I am here to tell you mine are a bit less dusty after tapping my feet to this song. “Buddy With a Boat” has a country/rock tempo that just makes you feel pumped. It’s filled with cleverly fun lyrics that will sit at the tip of your tongue all day long. This is what country music today should be.

“Buddy With a Boat” is a fantastic start to Brett’s career. It deserves a spot on your favorite playlist this 4th of July and for a long time after. I highly recommend you also follow Brett Stafford Smith on his socials. This song really has me looking forward to what is next.
