Nashville, TN--- Fan favorite Craig Campbell is back in the spotlight and this time, he’s bringing along friends and fermented beverages to celebrate. His new single, “All My Friends Drink Beer” releases to streaming services TODAY, Friday, May 8th, just in time for Stay At Home restrictions to lift and friends to reunite. Written by Craig, Taylor Phillips, and Kenton Bryant, this hand clappin’, finger snappin’, boot stompin’ tune also has Craig co-producing alongside Phil O’ Donnell. The party anthem marks his second independent single of 2020, following his recent amicable split from longtime label, Broken Bow Records. His long awaited March release, “It’s About Time”, delighted fans who had come to excitedly anticipate his live piano version of the sultry ballad at shows. And with summer quickly approaching, Craig is now ready to “raise hell with a Dixie cup.” “I have been opening my shows with this song for a while now and so many people have asked, ‘When will that song be available?! I need that song in my life!’” the Georgia native shares. “Well, y’all … meet ‘All My Friends Drink Beer!’” Always one to give the fans what they want, Craig is taking it one step further. A “quarantine” video will be dropping soon, featuring Craig’s friends and fellow artists singing along and drinking beer, wherever they are. And on single release day, May 8th, Craig is set to partner with the Omni Nashville Hotel for an acoustic live stream, filmed at Barlines. The solo show will air on both Craig Campbell's Facebook LIVE and Omni Hotels and Resorts' Facebook Live at 7 pm central. You can stream it here tonight. In the meantime, Craig has been giving viewers a glimpse of his home life during COVID-19, playing music with his wife and daughters and showing off crazy antics of their farm animals. He is also keeping his sense of humor with a limited “Social From a Distance” merch collection, advertised on his Instagram. “All My Friends Drink Beer” is available for downloading and streaming here.

Country hitmaker Craig Campbell has long been admired for his patience and persistence in an industry that all too often relies on overnight success. With two rolls of quarters and a roll of dimes given to him by his mother for gas money, the Lyons, Georgia native was determined to make it in Nashville.
His undeniable talent and charm landed him steady gigs at the legendary honky-tonk, The Stage, and eventually took him on the road with Luke Bryan and Tracy Byrd as a keyboard player. With smooth chops and hot blooded stage presence, it wasn’t long before Campbell broke out into stardom of his own with hits like 2011’s “Family Man” and “Outta My Head” soaring into the Top 15 on the Billboard Country Charts. Showing off his down home flair in singles like “Fish” and his Top 10 smash “Keep Them Kisses Comin”, Campbell became a boot stompin’, crowd pleasing favorite.
His critically acclaimed 2016 ballad, “Outskirts of Heaven” was performed on NBC’s TODAY show and praised by Rolling Stone for its uplifting message. A regular on the Grand Ole Opry, Campbell also wowed audiences around the country on Luke Bryan’s highly successful 2017 Huntin’, Fishin’, and Lovin’ Every Day Tour. In 2018, he released See You Try, a seven-song EP on Broken Bow Records before amicably parting ways.
Almost two years later, he is finally releasing new music on his own accord with his romantic ballad, “It’s About Time” and his current let loose anthem, “All My Friends Drink Beer.”
