For multi-Platinum hitmakers Eli Young Band, the past year at home offered a chance to reset and recalibrate following two decades of success in the music industry. The Texas-based band has used the time for focused creativity, amassing a deep catalog of new songs. That renewed sense of excitement going into their next project is evident on a brand-new song available now via The Valory Music Co. Listen to “Lucky For MeHERE.

Lead singer Mike Eli crafted the feel-good, singalong love song together with Laura Veltz and Jimmy Robbins, who also served as producer alongside Eric Arjes. The resulting track showcases EYB’s signature ability Rolling Stone has praised as “backed by force-of-nature passion” over a driving pulse of rapid-fire adoration for an incomparable woman:

        I needed a softhearted, hardheaded, outspoken, wide open, high hopin’, holdin’ it down
        Straight shootin’, sweet talkin’, hell raisin’, line walkin’ angel with feet on the ground
        Strong but she’s kind, laughs when she’s lyin’, knows how to throw back a few
        Only one in the world, way too good to be true
        Lucky for me it’s you

“I wrote so many songs in 2020, which was obviously a scary and odd time for the band and the world,” shares Eli. “This song was written towards the beginning when we still had a good handle on optimism and hope. It’s one of the things I love about this song. It’s about finding that person you’re meant to weather the storm with!”

In the time since their college formation, the band celebrated by the Associated Press as offering “a smart, relevant antidote” to overdone clichés in Country music has amassed 14 Billboard charting singles, including four No. 1 hits via 3x Platinum “Crazy Girl,” 2x Platinum “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” and Platinum “Love Ain’t” and “Drunk Last Night,” while also earning an ACM Award for Song of the Year as well as multiple GRAMMY, CMA, CMT, ACA and Teen Choice Award nominations.
