The song appears on his 31st studio album
On the heels of setting a record for largest single ticketed concert in US history last month with 110,905 fans in attendance for The King at Kyle Field, Country Music Hall of Fame member George Strait shares another taste of new music from his forthcoming 31st studio record Cowboys And Dreamers with “Three Drinks Behind.” The album is due on September 6th via MCA Nashville.
Written by Benjamin Gaither, Jeff Silvey and Kim Williams, and produced by Strait with Chuck Ainlay and Tony Brown, “Three Drinks Behind” finds the Texas native waxing poetic about escaping the stresses of the day with a visit to a bar filled with good buddies and good drinks.
The follow-up to Honky Tonk Time Machine, Strait’s 27th No. 1 Billboard Country album, Cowboys And Dreamers will feature 13 new songs, including two previously released tracks “MIA Down in MIA” and “The Little Things” as well as “Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame” featuring Chris Stapleton along with his rendition of Waylon Jennings’ “Waymore’s Blues.”
The Texas Troubadour wraps his series of summer stadium shows this Saturday, July 20th at Chicago’s Soldier Field. He will return to the stage this December supersizing his long-standing Strait to Vegas show with a date at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium to mark the 37th installment of the engagement with Stapleton and Little Big Town.
