Grant Gilbert Releases New Baseball-Inspired Single “Take Me Out To The Bar” NASHVILLE, TN (March 24, 2023) – River House Artists’ Grant Gilbert released his latest single “Take Me Out To The Bar” today. The baseball-inspired track, written by Gilbert, Brad Clawson, and Blake Bollinger, is a modern take on the ballpark classic, turning the lyrics into a breakup, drinking anthem perfect for summer. The song comes on the heels of his last single, “Six Pack State of Mind” with Josh Abbott, which jumped an impressive 44 places on the Texas Regional Radio Report and 42 places on the Texas Country Music Chart in the last two weeks and has garnered Gilbert his highest number of monthly streaming listeners in his career to date. Check out the song here. “’Take Me Out To The Bar’ is probably the craziest song I’ve written,” says Gilbert. “I went to a Nashville Sounds game where a friend was pitching. Between innings, ‘Take Me Out To The Ballgame’ would play, and everybody knew the words. The next day I sat down to write with Brad Clawson and Blake Bollinger using ‘Take Me Out To The Ballgame’ as our inspiration. It’s outside the box and fun and I can’t wait to play it live!” You can catch Gilbert on a run of shows this Spring.

About Grant Gilbert: Cut from the Texas country cloth, yet rocking a style of his own design, River House artist Grant Gilbert has a history of self-made wins, streaming success, and big-name believers. With a fresh batch of music, proudly independent and made with Nashville’s top talent, a new chapter begins. Raised on a cattle ranch in tiny Santo, Texas, Gilbert was inspired by everything from his grandparents’ Texas swing and fiddle tunes to his dad’s penchant for Springsteen, Petty, and the country hits of the ‘80s. He dove head first into Lubbock, Texas, a town famous for its vibrant live-country scene, while a student at Texas Tech. He eventually made his way to Nashville where he spent time writing with hit songwriters like Brad Clawson, Jessie Jo Dillon, and Dan Isbell, and recording with producer/songwriter Jonathan Singleton. Tracks like “She Goes Home (Dirty Breakup Song),” “God & Everybody” and “What’s Stopping Us” racked up nearly 2 million streams on Spotify alone, mixing that gritty Lubbock edge with a youthful passion for life and love. But with a new chapter unfolding, he’s just getting started. New tracks like the can-crushing “Six Pack State of Mind” (featuring Josh Abbott), “Turn It Down” (featuring Maddie & Tae), and “Take Me Out to the Bar” help to showcase the artist Gilbert’s become. For him, that has always meant being his own man and working to make his own place in the world. With big things on the horizon, he’s not going to stop now.
