Billboard“In my wildest dreams, I never thought I’d see my name or any of my songs on the Billboard charts. So the fact that I’ve now had two reach the #1 spot is mind-blowing. Thanks to everyone who has supported me and my music. I owe everything to y’all.”

BillboardHeath Warren, Jacob Hackworth and Jet Harvey wrote Rock And A Hard Place.
Bailey recorded the song after hearing Heath perform Rock on his Instagram page.
“I started singing one day, and then two weeks later, I wrote my first song, and it went big on TikTok. And so I’ve just kind of been praying about it. When I release a song, I’m like, I really hope the fans love this one. And every single song, they’re just like, Yes, this is your song. It’s your song. We love these songs. And I’m just grateful for that because that doesn’t happen every time. And the fact that the fans have supported me this far on just the music that I love and the music that I love making, is insanely incredible, man.”
Zimmerman co-wrote 11 of the 16 tracks on his LP Religiously The Album coming out on May 12, 2023.
“The past two years of my life have been insane, and the fact that I get to release my first-ever album is so surreal. Thank you to everyone that has had my back through thick and thin. I will never be able to repay y’all for the love and support; this album is for you.”

“Everyone that I have met, whether it has been bigger artists or other musicians, has been so supportive of me. Nashville, in general, is full of good people. Everyone has welcomed me in with open arms.”
“I love Rock and a Hard Place. That line that goes for the record, throwin’ in the towel takes some effort, so I’d rather ride it out for better weather. That is one of my favourite lines. That sentiment is so true, man. Throwing in the towel takes more effort than actually working on a relationship sometimes.”
