As we reach the summer season, we need something which contains a light beat with happy vibes all around. This is what pop singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Jake Scott gives us with his new single ‘Green Eyes‘.
Co-written and co-produced by Scott and Josh Kerr (Kelsea Ballerini, Keith Urban, Camila Cabello), the stripped-down guitar track brings a vibrant sound, describing how you wish you could be with someone who has caught your eye. It all happens to us at one point, where we catch someone in our eye and we hope we eventually find a way to build a friendship or relationship with them, this is what ‘Green Eyes‘ describe.
In Jake Scott’s story version, the single is about the offering chronicles his love story with his wife Rachel, illustrated by vivid and honest lyricism. “Green Eyes is about that first spark, that moment of connection with someone new. It makes the simple sacred and if you’re lucky, becomes the start of a story you’ll tell forever,” said Scott.
In March, Scott made his national television debut on The Kelly Clarkson Show, performing his anthemic, anecdotal track Texas Girl. Scott hails from Arkansas – a state that rivals Texas – and ended up falling for his wife – a Dallas native – regardless. At the top of the year, he also sold out every date on his first-ever North American headline tour. Additionally, Scott’s 2021 collaboration with multi-platinum country star Russell Dickerson – She Likes It – is now RIAA Certified Gold and has amassed nearly 100M total global streams. The song is currently #38 on the Mediabase Country Chart, and #35 on Billboard Country Airplay as well. Along with being a featured artist on the track, Scott also co-penned the song with Dickerson, underscoring his prowess as a songwriter.
Scott is currently on the road supporting Ben Rector on tour, which hits Houston, TX at 713 Music Hall this evening. The full itinerary of dates can be found below, with all tickets available HERE.
