“BK, Corey [Crowder], and I had a good time writing this one,” shares FGL’s Tyler Hubbard. “We felt like we were writing the modern-day version of ‘Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer’ meets
Christmas Vacation. The only thing that would make this Country Christmas song any better is if we could shoot a video and feature ‘Cousin Eddie.’”
“Get your holidaze on, y’all,” adds FGL’s Brian Kelley. “This is a new one for us. T and I always felt our first holiday song would come at just the right time – we’re excited for fans to have something FGL to cheers to the season with!”
Proving their party-starting spirit is a gift that keeps on giving, Hubbard and Kelley penned and produced “Lit This Year” alongside Corey Crowder. FGL sings, “
Got some good ole Christmas spirit in this cup right here / That Christmas tree ain’t the only thing getting lit this year,” as they toast to a special kind of yuletide cheer. The festive two-stepper is overflowing with warm-and-fuzzy fun wrapped in a twangy mix of banjo, guitar, and brotherly harmony.
