As Melanie describes it, “This is a song that captures the nostalgia and magic of a moment that when you try to explain it to someone, words can’t do it right \u2026 they just Had To Be There. We debuted this at CMC Rocks with the band and the crowd were whistling and singing along from the second it started. I think it’s going to be a festival favourite and it’s now definitely one of our favourites to play live. I wrote HTBT in Nashville last year with my long-time collaborators and friends Phil Barton & Karen Kosowski who also produced the track. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n
