For Green, it's "Different 'Round Here" thanks to a friend

Wednesday, May 10, 2023 – Riley Green dropped a new version of the title track of his debut album with a friend aboard. "Different 'Round Here (Featuring Luke Combs)," is out now via BMLG Records.

The Alabama native penned the original version of "Different 'Round Here" in 2019. The song goes for adds May 15.

"Ever since we originally released the song a few years ago, we have seen so many military families, athletes and hard-working everyday people use the song in their own videos," said Green. "It has also been one of those songs that proud hometown fans sing along to the loudest, night after night. While up in Canada with Luke at the end of last year, we saw the same thing and it felt right re-releasing it together."

Green is currently serving as direct support on Luke Combs World Tour in stadiums across the country.

"Touring with Luke has been a great experience. Both of us got started in a lot of the same venues early on and I'm excited to be out with him for more stadium shows this summer," said Green.

It's the perfectly appropriate song to pull out whenever arguing the case for what real country music does best. Chronicling the trials and tribulations of an Alzheimer's-afflicted father, it's difficult to imagine any other genre bettering this one.
