GEORGE BIRGE TALKS LIFE IN “IT WON’T BE LONG”

After scoring two career #1s last year with back-to-back chart-toppers, RECORDS Nashville hitmaker George Birge knows a thing or two about watching unexpected dreams become reality. And with the touching life ballad “It Won’t Be Long” as his next single at Country radio, he turns his thoughts to the bigger picture. Listen here.

Written by Birge with Joe FoxChase McGill, and Trannie Anderson, “It Won’t Be Long” lands like a heartfelt ode to blessings big and small, informed by wisdom of the ages. With poignant lyrics about the stop-you-in-your-tracks moments of a simple but meaningful life, he traces a path toward real appreciation – one which leads across true love, challenges, and the surprises you never saw coming. Also produced by Fox, a delicate piano melody helps convey the sense of awestruck sincerity, with Birge’s smoldering vocal dialed down to a tender croon. Meanwhile, inspiring steel guitar and orchestral undertones sweep across a soul feeding Country-Pop soundscape with a lump-in-your-throat reminder: “So buy the drink, steal the kiss, make the trip, take the risk, love hard as you can and just hold on / Cause life might be a lot of things / But it won’t be long.”

Further breathing life into the autobiographical release, Birge also today (1/17) delivers the Corey Miller-directed music video for “It Won’t Be Long,” featuring a special appearance from his sons, George James and Luke.
