Nashville, Tenn.

“The Son of a Gun” was written by Collie and Hollywood writer, director and filmmaker Jonathan Hensleigh (Die Hard with a Vengeance, Jumanji, Armageddon, The Punisher).
“This was my first songwriting collaboration with Jonathan,” explains Collie. “He came up with the idea and it really fit the album and gave us an opportunity to recognize and honor those who keep us safe and free.”
“It started with a conversation about our World War II survivor fathers,” adds Hensleigh. “Men who had to carry a firearm in the line of duty and what effect that has on a person when they return from combat.”
The new single will be included on Collie’s forthcoming album, Book of My Blues, set to release later this year. Additional information on the new album will be announced in the coming weeks. Fans can pre-order “The Son of a Gun” here.
