We Ride - Bryan Martin - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Yeah, 'cause I've been known to write a few songs./ Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned," confesses Bryan Martin before taking the song to an even darker place: "Bottle and a pistol by my side / The devil's always along for the ride." The Louisiana-born country hopeful turned the camera on himself again for his 2022 single "We Ride," the second track featured on his gritty 2023 album Poets & Old Souls. The rough-hewn confessional is built around heavy-set acoustic guitar and channels an outlaw country vibe about living life close to the edge. The follow-up to Bryan Martin's 2019 debut full-length If It Was Easy—on which he detailed his struggles with mental health and addiction—Poets & Old Souls picks up where that record left off, gathering a collection of nine uncompromising tracks in thrall to the kind of candid storytelling that leaves nothing behind in its ultimate search for redemption.
