Having worked in finance in NYC and seeing passionate, and once vibrant, young people become totally demoralized, burnt out, and stuck doing something they hate, I just always wished they would just say ‘screw it’ and never come back into work. It is a lot better to make a few less bucks doing something you love, than waste precious time being absolutely miserable.

This is the first song I have ever written, and I did it on a plane going down to Nashville with my wife. I have always loved music and loved writing, and when this idea came to me I realized that there is not another song out there really like it, telling this sort of story. Country music is so much more popular in New York now than it ever has been, and I wanted something that could relate to people up here who love country, but also know a lot about a city work grind.
