DESCRIPTION:

The Tim Raybon Band are excited to unveil their new single “Sally Johnson.” It will serve as the second release from the group’s forthcoming album, coming later this year via Pinecastle Records. It’s a fiddle-driven bluegrass tune that is very fast-paced, and stays true to the band’s signature sound.

Written by Tim Raybon, “Sally Johnson” tells a love story centered around a farming couple who found love and created a family that expanded for multiple generations. It’s told from the perspective of their grandchild who reminisces about the couple’s storied life.The song is the follow-up to the previous No. 1 hit, “Leaving Cleveland.” Following its release, the cut shot all the way to the top of the Bluegrass Today Weekly Airplay Chart, where it spent multiple weeks in the peak position.

Since being formed as a band in 2018 by Tim Raybon and Daniel Grindstaff, the group has created their own signature sound which pays tribute to founding members of both Bluegrass and traditional Country genres. Raybon also looks to continue sharing his one-of-a-kind songwriting style which has taken the nation by storm, producing previous No. 1 hits like “Hello Sunshine,” “God’s Still In Control,” “I’m Leaving Town Tonight” and “Harlan Darlin’.” He also wrote a recent chart-topping hit for his brother Marty Raybon called “Walking the Floor.” It was a full circle moment, as both artists started out their careers as a duo called Raybon Bros, where they released their Gold-certified single “Butterfly Kisses” via Warner Music Nashville.
