This one’s gonna be on repeat for a while.
Riley Green released his longtime fan-favorite “Mississippi or Me” today, likely the lead single from his forthcoming (unofficially announced) sophomore studio album.
It’s a song that he’s known to play at live shows every now and then for several years now, and has also shared little teasers of on Instagram before, and I’ve personally loved this song for a long time, so I’m just tickled pink to finally have the real deal studio cut.
Written by Riley along with Tyler Reeve and Josh Thompson, the subject matter finds Riley wondering if the girl who broke his heart came back because she couldn’t live without him, or because she missed her home in Mississippi and everything else in the Magnolia State.
The production is sounds great and falls in line with what we typically hear from the Alabama native, very pretty and straightforward country, and is another solid addition to his catalog.
Riley revealed a few weeks ago that a new project is coming in October, but we don’t have any further details on a release date, tracklist, album cover, or anything else of that nature quite yet.
Until then, turn it up…
