Riley Green shares ‘Rather Be’

The country star tells you exactly where he’d “Rather Be” with new single

Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Riley Green brings a touch of humor to his discography with his latest release, “Rather Be,” out now via Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment. This playful track delivers a lighthearted twist on the all-too-familiar experience of being nagged.

“This felt like a fun way to preview what’s coming up later this year,” Green shares.

The release of “Rather Be” arrives at an opportune moment for Green, who is currently enjoying significant success with several current hits. His viral collaboration with Ella Langley, “You Look Like You Love Me,” has already garnered over 50 million streams since its release just over a month ago. The streaming juggernaut sits at No. 16 on Billboard’s TikTok Top 50–making it the only country song in the Top 10–and holds strong at No. 3 on the US Viral 50. Furthermore, over 500K TikTok videos have been made using the track.

His current single, “Damn Good Day To Leave,” continues to gain momentum, climbing through the Top 25 on the US country radio charts and currently at No. 6 on the UK charts. Additionally, his latest EP, Way Out Here, includes the hit “Worst Way,” which has amassed over 75 million streams and has been generating considerable buzz.

Beyond his recent chart successes, Green has been making headlines with his live performances and print features. Earlier this month, he played to the UK’s largest country music crowd ever at his debut show in the country with Morgan Wallen. He is also featured as the cover of this month’s Cigar & Spirits magazine, becoming the third country artist to do so, following George Straight and Kenny Chesney.

With no signs of slowing down, Green’s fans can look forward to more new music later this year.
