<p>Singing of adolescent dreams of trying to “live big in a small town,” <strong><em>Taste of Country</em> </strong>calls “Young Americans” a “universal blast of nostalgia.” Talented songwriters Jared Sciullo, John Purdue, Renee Myers and Austin Webb co-wrote this wistful song.</p>
<p>Commenting on the collaboration with the Kelleys, Ford recently told <strong><em>Billboard Magazine</em>, </strong>“I’ve known those boys forever. They are Georgia guys. We’ve been good friends for a long time, and they are two of my favorite singers. Charles and I talked about doing something together for a long time. We just had to find the right song. When I heard it, I thought it had the right groove, and I thought about getting Josh in on it too.”</p>
<p>Ford continues his <strong>“Love Hope Faith”</strong> summer tour criss-crossing the country entertaining fans. On a recent tour stop, one of Ford’s biggest fans was hoisted onstage in his wheelchair where he joined Ford for a duet of “Dirt Road Anthem” and subsequently stole the mic and the show.
