I’m writing all the time. I want to do this forever. I want to have a box set someday. I can’t stop. The day I stop being inspired to write songs, I’ll go sit on the beach – until I become inspired again. Brett Eldredge Read Quote
I was about to walk on stage at the Kansas Speedway – I was playing a NASCAR race – and I said to Scooter Carusoe, who was standing side stage, ‘I want to write a song called ‘Wanna Be That Song.’ Then I put my earphones back in and walked right out on stage. Brett Eldredge Read Quote
Wanna Be That Song’ has everything I want to say about love and about what I’m trying to be. I wanna be that part of your life, that song that means so much to you, the one that takes you back to that special place… the song that makes you laugh, the song that makes you cry when you need to cry, that makes you dance when you need to dance.

I think when you sign a recording deal, you think, ‘I’m going to put out a song and have a hit right away. I’ll be a giant superstar. I can take over the world now.’ But I put out a song, and it did OK. It wasn’t like leaps and bounds. Brett Eldredge Read Quote
Chicago is definitely more of a country place now. The friends who I thought never in a million years would like country now are huge fans. I love that. Brett Eldredge Read Quote
I grew up three and a half hours outside of Chicago, but people would call me a ‘hick’ or ‘country boy.’ Maybe it’s because I talked with more of a country accent. Brett Eldredge Read Quote
