Dustin Lynch has paired up with Jelly Roll on a new song that sounds very familiar. That’s because the song ‘Chevrolet’ borrows it’s melody from the 1970’s song ‘Drift Away’ by Dobie Gray.
‘Drift Away’ was covered by Uncle Kracker in 2003 and landed at #1 on Billboard’s US Adult Contemporary chart.
Dustin says of his song ‘Chevrolet’, “There is something in the air in Nashville right now, where writers are on the same wavelength and doing cool things like interpolating classic songs into something new. When ‘Chevrolet’ came across our plate, it floored me. Everyone knows Dobie Gray’s ‘Drift Away’ – the melody of that song is timeless. Having Jelly Roll on it adds an extra edge.”
Dustin’s album Killed The Cowboy will be available on September 29th.
