Southern Dreams Entertainment flagship recording artist Andy Pursell  has announced the release of his new single titled “I Need You Bad.”* Penned by Terri Dennis and Jimmy Yeary, and produced by Mark Dreyer, the release is in keeping with the successful momentum of Pursell’s waterfall series introduced in 2023 (including “Right Amount Of Wrong” and “Last Load To Heaven” currently at country radio now).

THE STORYLINE:  A lovestruck fool falls head-over-heels beguiled by an entrancing woman whose irresistible allure fuels a lovesick aching desire and fires temptations much too strong to resist.

THE SOUND:  A classic country arrangement complements simplistic, straightforward lyrics. Pursell’s vocal flips, spotlighted in the chorus, depict the infatuation while frolicking organ progressions enliven the playful, weak-in-the-knees admission. The rhythm section rocks steady weaving in wailing guitar solos that echo a desperate plea too honest to ignore.

YEAH GO AND CALL ME A DESPERATE MA
CAUSE BABY THAT JUST WHAT I AM
YOUR CRAZY LOVE IS DRIVING ME MAD
GIRL GO AND CALL ME A DESPERATE MAN
CAUSE BABY THAT JUST WHAT I AM
YOUR CRAZY LOVE IS DRIVING ME MAD

“This is the first love song I’ve ever recorded. It’s the typical love story of a heartsick guy who just can’t seem to lock down the girl of his dreams,” introduced the Florida-based country recording artist, Pursell. “ The overall vibe of the song is what drew me and it just felt good when we recorded it. I love the guitar solo. The sound tells the story that I wanted to convey.” 

Akin to Ronnie Milsap and Blake Shelton, ”I Need You Bad” highlights Pursell’s knack for delivering simplistic and realistic lyrics that paint a crystal-clear picture from an amusingly truthful perspective. The track is the lead single as the launch of his 2024 waterfall series.

ABOUT ANDY PURSELL Country recording artist Andy Pursell, who reigns from the “Sunshine State,” found a passion for music and live performance in his late teens. Born and raised in Arcadia, Florida, the former lineman and self-taught guitarist (who embraces the sounds of Waylon Jennings, Garth Brooks, Hank Jr., Mark Chesnutt and Tracy Lawrence) formed the Andy Pursell Band (a group of veteran musicians with more than 40 years live performance experience combined) in 2015. Shortly thereafter, Andy was recognized as “Favorite New Artist” by the Tampa Bay Music Network (2016). As support act, Andy has shared stages with Alan Jackson, Hunter Hayes, Clay Walker, and Montgomery Gentry among others; he’s headlined stages at the Bradenton Area River Regatta, the Smokin’ In The Pines Festival, Manatee Civic Center, Hard Rock Cafe’ (Tampa) and The Ultimate Bullfighters World Finals “The Bulls And Bands Bash.” As a former ambassador for Salt Life, Andy recorded and released his original tune titled “Livin’ In The Salt Life’ in 2019. He launched his 2023 Waterfall Series of singles, introducing “Right Amount Of Wrong” as the lead single in March 2023, followed by “Me Myself & The Tide” and “Last Load To Heaven,” as a  personal dedication and homage to our American truck drivers.
