Brantley Gilbert announced the release of a brand-new single, “Hard Days,” which will impact country radio on June 15.

Penned by Brantley, Jimi Bell, Brock Berryhill, Jay Brunswick and Logan Wall, “Hard Days” follows the release of “Fire’t Up” (No. 44) and “What Happens in a Small Town” (No. 1), both of which were featured on Brantley’s 2019 No. 1 album, Fire & Brimstone.

“Hard Days” may be the first glimpse of new music from Brantley’s next album.

“For me, ‘Hard Days’ is just about taking the good with the bad,” says Brantley. “It’s about finding hope, or just acknowledging hope and being able to appreciate the bad that leads to the good in your life. I hope for you the song offers healing and encouragement in all of the hard times and the hard days in your life.”
