It\u2019s about heartbreak, reflection, and finding some peace in the pain. The song pays tribute to the artists who helped me through my own difficult times and I\u2019m now hoping to be that voice for someone else .\u201d&nbsp; This song is released via Plow House Records and produced by Grammy-nominated Brad Hill (Maren Morris, Brothers Osborne, Owen Riegling).\u000f\u000fStephen&#8217;s last single, &#8220;Bar By Now &#8221; was a major hit on Country Radio, including:&nbsp;\u000f\u000f&nbsp;<br>\u00b7 Over 1M streams on Spotify<br>\u00b7 Gained over 100K monthly Spotify listeners<br>\u00b7 Currently on over 2.5K Spotify Playlists<br>\u00b7 Reached #51 on Music Row Country Breakout Chart for \u201cBar By Now\u201d<br>\u00b7 Charted at #2 on Play MPE Streaming in the UK<br>\u00b7 Charted at # 3 on play MPE Streaming in Latin America<br>\u00b7 Charted at #9 streaming and was the 13 the most downloaded song on Play MPE International&nbsp;chart<br>\u00b7 Played iconic venues and festivals including Polo Stampede, Avila Beach Resort Festival, Doug Weston\u2019s Troubadour, California Mid-State Fair, Buck Owens Palace, Sturgis Buffalo Chip, and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Stephen Styles knows his way around a turntable, a glass of whiskey, and certainly around a true Country song.
