Green hopes new CD "Ain't My Last Rodeo"{
The Alabama native put a dozen songs on the release. Luke Combs is featured on "Different 'Round Here," the current single, which was first out in 2019. The song also was the title track of his debut. Jelly Roll guests on "Copenhagen In A Cadillac."
The title comes from the track "My Last Rodeo," which Green wrote solo following one of the final conversations he had with his late Grandaddy Buford while in the hospital. Buford Green was the brains behind converting his great-grandparents' home into the Golden Saw Music Hall and is credited for his grandson's musical appreciation, education and inspiration. On his mother's side, his grandfather, Lyndon, can be attributed for Riley's love of the outdoors, heard in tracks like "Mississippi or Me."
"I was fortunate enough to grow up within about three miles of my grandparents, so they were a huge part of my growing up and who I am—and this album is a lot of who I am," said Green. "This is really the first time I was able to really take my time, write and record songs that really felt like a cohesive album. I'm really proud of it and want to thank the fans for all of their encouragement. I hope y'all enjoy it."
Green also covered Tim McGraw's "Damn Country Music," which will be available on Friday. Green already released several songs he'd been testing for fans on social media, including "Mississippi or Me," "Raised Up Right" and "God Made A Good Ol' Boy."
