Jordan Davis’ new single, “Bar None,” captures the desperation of a man haunted by his past and fighting a losing battle with an empty glass in the lyrical double-meaning of the chorus, “You and your memory, one/ Me and this bar, none.” “When I brought in the general concept, I knew it was going to be about keeping score, but I didn’t have that lyric all settled,” remembers songwriter Lydia Vaughan. “I wasn’t having a specific sport in mind. Maybe the sport of heartbreak.” Vaughan worked on the track at Nashville’s Skyline Studio with the songwriting team of Hunter Phelps and studio owner Ben Johnson. The song hooked Davis immediately, who convinced MCA Nashville to include it on his already finished album. “I didn’t even have to finish the entire first listen,” Davis says. “Right after that intro, I was like, ‘I’m pretty in on this.’” “Bar None” was released to country radio on March 24, and debuted at No. 57 on the Country Airplay chart.
