The result is a lighter, airier mix that’s much easier on the ears than its competitors, and while it’s still nothing but empty sonic calories at the end of the day, it’s enough to put a smile on your face for a minute or two. Bryan’s song, however, chooses instead to let quieter and more acoustic instruments play the lead: It’s an acoustic guitar driving the melody (the electric axes still show up and get some spotlight time, especially on the bridge solo, but both they and the drums aren’t as in-your-face as they are on similar tracks), and a keyboard providing some organ-like background stabs to promote a breezy atmosphere. Sure, the instrument tones are bright and the general vibe is celebratory, but the higher volume levels feel more conducive to a raging frat-house throwdown than a beach party. While it’s no more memorable than the rest of these songs, there are a few noticeable tweaks that make it stand a hair or two higher then, say, Chris Janson’s “Fix A Drink” or “Good Vibes.” Given our current predicament and the number of shots I took at Bryan for his last awful excuse for a single, I figured it might be worth talking about what this song does right for a change.įirst, consider the approach to the production: I lot of the party-hardy songs, including Janson’s recent pair, tend to be driven by electric instruments, hitting the listener with heavier and louder sounds in an attempt to convey the intensity of their relaxation (which is as contradictory an idea as I can think of). (Case in point: He released 24 songs in the 2010s, and only two failed to top a Billboard chart.) Even a Nashville powerhouse like Bryan, however, is no match for a global pandemic, and instead of riding the wave of his most-recent tire fire #1 single “What She Wants Tonight” to a successful album launch, Born Here, Live Here, Die Here has been pushed back to August, forcing Bryan to re-generate his buzz with the third single from the album, “One Margarita.” One one hand, this is the same old beach-party drivel that Bryan has been filling Spring Break discs with for years, an ode to ignoring all of life’s problems by drinking yourself into a stupor. …But as far as shallow, nihilistic escapist songs go, this isn’t that bad.Īs much as it feels like Luke Bryan’s momentum has petered out, he remains one of country music’s biggest hitmakers today. Watch Bryan's new music video for "One Margarita" below.This is a shallow, nihilistic escapist song. "I’ve been watching what Morgan is building with his fans, and it has been so fun to watch! I know with him, Caylee and Runaway June on this tour it’s going to be such a high energy night for everyone.” And I’m excited to get on the road with these guest artists too," Bryan says.
"I am truly so thankful to have the opportunity to make music for my fans and to look out into the crowds each night from stage and be proud of what we’ve created. Special guests Morgan Wallen, Caylee Hammack and Runaway June are set to accompany Bryan on the journey. The tour will kick off on May 28 in Cincinnati, Ohio running through October 10 in San Bernardino, California. There's no doubt Bryan will take this one out on the road with him this summer on his "Proud To Be Right Here Tour." The tour is in support of the country star's upcoming new album, Born Here, Live Here, Die Here, coming out on April 24. "One margarita, two margarita, three margarita, shot / Don't worry 'bout tomorrow / Leave all your sorrow out here on the floatin' dock," Bryan sings in the song. "One Margarita" is a spirited track dedicated to having a good time out in the sun with the help of some tequila. Additionally, Bryan's own wife, Caroline Bryan, and his mother, LeClaire Bryan, showed up for the party. In the clip, fans will notices several familiar faces including Old Dominion, Caylee Hammack, Charles Kelley and more. The video was filmed during Bryan's sixth Crash My Playa show in Riviera Cancun, Mexico. Luke Bryan just dropped a new song, "One Margarita," and accompanying video on Friday (March 13).
