SEAN STEMALY DROPS NEW TRUCK ANTHEM, “Z71”

Big Loud riser Sean Stemaly drops the hammer for diesel-powered Country anthem today (7/30), “Z71.”

“When Andy [Albert], Brett [Tyler], and I wrote this song, I was driving a Duramax and felt inspired to write a ‘truck song.’ Not just one that talks about tailgates and lift kits, but more on the ‘diesel’ side of things. I’ve been wrenching on high-horsepower diesel trucks since I was 17, so I wanted to stay true to myself and pen an anthem for people like me who just love trucks,” shares Stemaly. “I know those boys didn’t understand half the stuff I was saying when we were coming up with lines, but I knew truck fans would understand every word. I’m super proud of this song and hope it keeps climbing and reaching the ears of folks like me around the world. And the fact that we were able to make it sound like a Staind song is icing on the cake for me since I was raised on mainly Rock music."

A torquey slow jam co-written by Stemaly with Brett Tyler and Andy Albert, the edgy new track is fueled by jet-black attitude with just a touch of Pop-Country chrome – and it’s dedicated to one of his real-life obsessions.

An avid mechanic in his free time, Stemaly rocks a sleek and sturdy groove on “Z71”, produced by Joey Moi and co-produced by Derek Wells with grungy guitars, pounding drums and a hypnotic, high-horsepower vocal – and this is no city slicker talking. Clearly written by a guy who knows his way around a diesel, it’s a full-bore tribute built to showcase Stemaly’s love for the modified masterpiece that is his custom truck.

Named one of Pandora’s 2021 Country Artists to Watch, Stemaly continues to grab the attention of critics and fans alike. Back in March, he released the buzzworthy ballad to digital-age romance, “Hello, You Up,” and along with its neon-lit music video, they’ve kept a hot streak of early standouts going.

The track followed Stemaly’s passionate “Come Back To Bed,” which along with tracks like “As Far As I Know,” “Last Day All Night” and “Back On a Back Road,” have added up to over 100 MILLION global artist streams to date – and there’s more to come.

Stemaly is currently in the studio with all-star producer, Joey Moi, working on more new music to be released this year.
