.elvieshanemusic tells Billboard about his current Top 5 hit 'My Boy' and his upcoming debut full-length album.
I was worried about putting it out at first because it shows the best side of me, which isn’t a great representation of who I am all the way around. I wanted people to maybe know the other side of me first, the rowdier side. But when it started connecting, I realized it is such a part of who I am. Even though I do make mistakes and do dumb stuff sometimes, or may be a little rough around the edges, at my core there is a lot of love that I was taught in my family.
Your mom joins you on “Miles," and it's a pretty stark look at the toll being on the road takes on families. That song is very open and it is 100% true. It started as a tribute to my dad and ended up calling him out on some of his BS as a father for not always being there, since he was a truck driver. But as I got to the end, I realized I’m doing the same thing out here on the road and being away from my family, but doing the only thing I know how to do to provide. That was a very therapeutic song to write.Well, I stole it from my dad. He asked where it was several times and I never told him.
This Silk Sonic project with Anderson .Paak and Bruno Mars are doing. That stuff is incredible, the way it sounds so classic and old but still so fresh at the same time. I couldn’t pull it off, I would look silly trying to sing"Leave the Door Open," but I’m sure glad they are doing it.I would probably be driving a truck. I grew up in the passenger seat of one. My little brother just bought a semi-truck and trailer and my dad drives for him.
