BRIAN KELLEY STARTS THE PARTY WITH “MEET ME AT THE BAR” ALONGSIDE HUNTT GARRETT

DIAMOND-selling superstar Brian Kelley joins emerging talent Huntt Garrett for a Twang-Trap anthem with a party-starting core called “Meet Me At The Bar.” Delivered independently, listen to the rowdy collaboration here.

Full of Country drip and written by KelleyGarrett (Hunter Weishuhn), and Kevin Anyaeji, the amped-up backwoods banger is tailor-made for raising a can to some good times, while flexing loud and proud. Led by Kelley’s undeniable Florida swag, and the effortless cool of Garrett’s authentic West Texas flow, the kindred spirits tribute living large in a small town – and leaving nothing on the table – as they, “Show ‘em how we do it down South.”

“We hit it off quick after being introduced! Huntt played me ‘Meet Me At The Bar,’ and I loved it from the first time I heard it and asked if I could hop on! Collaborating with him was a no-brainer,” shares Kelley. “Everything that I look for in a collaboration was there – the song, he’s a great guy, and also getting the chance to lift up an up-and-coming artist!”

First introduced through a mutual friend, Kelley and Garrett connected in person in Florida to record “Meet Me At The Bar” together. Further capturing the visit on video, fans can check out Garrett’s clips titled Episode 1 through Episode 5 here. Recalls Garrett, “Before I knew it, I was on the phone with BK, and just a few weeks later, I was flying to Florida to shoot content and record with him.” Adding, “This song is an anthem! It's the point in the night when everyone takes shots, and the girls drop it low! It’s the song that’ll get played in every Country bar when it’s time to turn up and let loose.”

Also produced by Anyaeji alongside Will Saulsky, a hard-hitting fusion of Country-Blues and Hip-Hop attitude features rootsy dobro, mandolin, and a maxed-out bass thump, as the beats and creative wild men get turned up. Always committed to supporting new talent and challenging convention, the track finds Kelley continuing to go where the music takes him, as Garrett prepares for liftoff.

No stranger to taking chances and making something no one saw coming, “Meet Me At The Bar” fast-follows Kelley’s brand-new release, “Palm Tree Country,” off his forthcoming album, Sunshine State of Mind Season Two, Chapter One. Going all in on the expansive nature of his creativity, Kelley also recently dropped a full-throttle throwdown, “Pedal to Metal 2.0,” with Mississippi singer-songwriter Tyler Pigg.

Making this summer red-hot, Kelley kicks off his 19-date SUNSHINE STATE OF MIND TOUR on July 24 in Savannah, GA. Sailing through September 7 in Raleigh, NC, fans can find a full list of tour dates and purchase tickets here.

ABOUT HUNTT GARRETT:
Huntt Garrett is a genre-blending artist with roots as deep as his lyrics. Hailing from the small farm town of Seminole, West Texas, Huntt’s journey began not on a stage, but as an athlete playing Division 1 football at Texas Tech University. There, he was not only teammates—but also roommates—with future NFL star Baker Mayfield and other elite athletes. But when a devastating spine injury abruptly ended his athletic career, he found himself spiraling—caught in a lifestyle of partying and choices he wasn’t proud of.

Everything changed after a long, soul-searching prayer with God. The very next day, he felt an undeniable calling to create music. Starting with Hip-Hop, Huntt poured his pain, grit, and redemption into verses that would eventually earn him millions of streams and major brand partnerships with companies like NBA 2K and Crown Royal. But even with success, something was still missing. Trusting his gut and his faith once again, he returned to the sounds of home.

Rebranding as Huntt Garrett, he forged a fresh, authentic sound—fusing Country, Soul, and Hip-Hop into something completely his own. Now releasing new music and videos every month, Huntt is carving out a lane in the country music scene. For him, music isn’t just a second chance—it’s a calling, and he’s here to stay.
