1. Famous: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

Famous: Cut x Cut Audio

The song “Famous” I wrote with Andy Skib and Bobby Hamrick. That song started with- in Nashville I’m always walking around listening for song ideas. And so, that song started with my girlfriend actually. She walks downstairs and she’s kind of a tomboy, doesn’t get dressed up a lot and she happened to be wearing this kind of white puffy coat that day. A little more extra. A little more than she normally does. And, my little brother was in town and had never seen her dressed up like that. So, he turned around and looked up at the stairs and he goes ‘Dang. You look famous tonight !’ And so, I love the idea of making someone that wasn’t per se famous feel like they were for two or three minutes. And so, that’s kind of where that idea came from. I think that was a Friday night and I wrote it the next week.

2. Neon Fools: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

Neon Fools: Cut x Cut Audio

I wrote “Neon Fools” with Andy Skib and Thomas Finchum.  I love titles that lead you one way that the song doesn’t go, so “Neon Fools” sounds to me, at least when you hear the title, like a party song.  And the actual hook of “Neon Fools” is “let’s let the neon fool us into thinking one thing or the other.” It kind of talks about going out and seeing somebody you’ve either dated in the past or somebody that you’re trying to quit, you’re trying to be done with, and you see them and you let the neon fool you into thinking that maybe it’ll work this time, when you know it won’t but you just do it anyway.

3. I Choose Lonely: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

I Choose Lonely: Cut x Cut Audio

I wrote “I Choose Lonely” with Paul Jenkins and Jason Sellers. “I Choose Lonely” is another one of those titles that sounds kind of depressing  It’s not, it’s another twist, a play on words, it’s actually a love song. And it’s just about getting really close to finding the right person or dating somebody for a year or two years, and then breaking up and getting really close or thinking you found the right person, and then it ends up not working out, which has happened to me a lot of times in my life. It’s about after that when you find the next person, you’re like, “Alright, if this feels so good, if this isn’t right, if it’s not you then I’m choosing lonely, I quit.”  And it’s just another hopeless romantic love song about finding the right one.

4. SOLO: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

SOLO: Cut x Cut Audio

So I wrote “SOLO” with Jason Gantt and Chris Gelbuda. It was our first time writing together, I remember that.  What actually happened is the way that I landed on this title which is kind of funny, if you’ve been in Nashville there’s buildings and apartments and skyscrapers everywhere. There’s 200 people a day moving here, and so there’s just stuff going up everywhere. And I bought a house in East Nashville four or five years ago, used to have a really nice view of downtown, you could see the Batman building, you could see everything. And so a couple years later after that, they built a big apartment complex right in front of my view of downtown, so now I have a good view of an apartment building.  I used to look at downtown, now I stare at this apartment building.  But every morning, I would stare at this apartment building and it was just called “SOLO,” and I said, “Well I should probably write a song called ‘SOLO.’” And so that’s where the came from, and I wrote it on a plane. So the whole thing with “SOLO” is “stay over lay over here with me,” and so that’s where the lay over came from. So the one word’s inspired by a plane, and the other inspired by an apartment building. It’s just a song about not wanting to be alone, I think everyone does that just sitting at the house and- I don’t really want you to leave just yet, just hang out a little longer, and that’s what that is.

5. Mom and Daddy’s Money: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

Mom and Daddy’s Money: Cut x Cut Audio

I wrote “Mom and Daddy’s Money” with Pete Good and AJ Babcock, two of the first guys I ever wrote with in Nashville.  I think the best thing you can have as a kid in this world is two good parents, and I had two good parents growing up, and I still do, and I’d hate to think of where I’d be without them.  I think it’s just such a good head start.  And, the problem with being a kid is it takes you 20-something years to realize how good your parents were if you’re lucky enough to have them.  And so, this was the day that I realized how good my parents were. I was kind of looking back, and you realize the $20 on the counter for gas, they might not have had $20, and they didn’t tell you about it, they just wanted to make it a little easier for you. And so, this song is essentially the day that I realized mom and daddy’s money was never paper money, it was just that they loved the heck out of me and would do whatever they could to make it easier on me. And so, it’s one of my favorite songs I’ve ever gotten to be a part of, and I play it every single night, it’s one of my favorite moments in the show. And it’s just a way for me to say thank you to my mom and dad, and all moms and dads out there, and that I hope one day when I have my own kids I can do as well as they did. When it comes to this lifestyle I’ve chosen in the music industry and what I’m trying to do, having my parents’ support has been such a huge thing for me.  My mom’s done the same things for 45 years, my dad has done the same thing for 50-something years. My dad has an electrical company that everyone kind of expected me to go work at after college, and I have worked there summers and winters and any breaks I’ve gotten. So it would’ve been easy for my dad to be like, “No, you’re coming to work at my company.”  but from Day 1, I remember walking into his office and being like, “Hey, I’m going to move to Nashville.” And I can’t imagine how crazy he thought I was when I told him, but it’s always been nothing but support from, and they’ve made it- It’s never easy in the music industry, but they’ve made it so much easier on me having that support trying to do what I’m doing every day, so I can’t thank them enough.

6. Whiskey’s Fine: Intro, Outro and Cut x Cut Audio

Whiskey’s Fine: Cut x Cut Audio

“Whiskey’s Fine” is the first song I ever got to release as an artist in Nashville.  I wrote that with my buddy Monty Criswell. We wrote that song in about an hour and a half. I like to tell people, it’s kind of a come over late song.  You know you shouldn’t do it, but you’re going to do it anyway.  It’s a special song for me lyrically. It was my first voice as a musician, it was the first time anyone had ever heard me sing. It’s got a lot of Mississippi blues, the old piano, it’s kind of got a Billy Joel vibe on the piano which I loved growing up. But it came out, I was named a Highway Find for SiriusXM because of this song.  It came out and sold 40,000 the week it came out which was incredible, something I had never imagined. And when you release music, people can hate it, people can love it, and you don’t know what’s going to happen. And luckily this was the start to my career, and it’s been such a good one. We still end the show with it every night, and it’s still my favorite to sing and to hear the crowd sing.

Arista Nashville’s Adam Doleac is treating fans to a collection of his most loved tunes – along with a new track – with the release of his Famous EP, now available for streaming and purchase.

On the heels of the title track’s release to country radio nationwide, the project chronicles Doleac’s time in Nashville and rise to success, featuring his debut release and SiriusXM The Highway’s Top 5 “Whiskey’s Fine,” autobiographical favorite “Mom and Daddy’s Money,” and new song “I Choose Lonely.” Co-produced by Jason Gantt (“SOLO”), Lindsay Rimes (“Whiskey’s Fine”) and Andy Skib (“Famous,” “I Choose Lonely,” “Mom and Daddy’s Money”), the EP exemplifies Doleac’s “mesmerizing vocals” and trademark “ear-grabbing guitar parts” ( Billboard ). 

Listen to Adam Doleac’s Famous EP HERE.

“These songs and the inspiration behind them go back as far as five years and some only a few months ago. So for people to finally get to see how they all come together as one body of work is the coolest thing for me,” said Doleac. “This is my first Arista Nashville EP since signing with Sony Music Nashville, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be able to share this music that means so much to me with all my fans.”

Shortly after his label signing in October 2019, Doleac released his single “Famous” to country radio, along with a concept video featuring ABC’s The Bachelor sweethearts Colton Underwood and Cassie Randolph.  “Famous,” already a two-week No.1 hit on SiriusXM’s The Highway, has collectively accrued over 50 million streams to date.

About Adam Doleac:
A Hattiesburg, Mississippi native, Doleac became impassioned with music in college. The Rolling Stone Country “Artist to Watch” received a scholarship to the University of Southern Mississippi where he not only played baseball, but wrote songs with his teammates and learned to play guitar. After he began playing hometown gigs, Doleac posted a performance of one of his songs on YouTube. The visual accrued millions of views and caught the attention of Sony/ATV Music Publishing. A co-writer of songs recorded by such stars as Kane Brown, Darius Rucker, and Hootie and the Blowfish, Doleac has staked his claim as one to watch in Nashville. Dubbed “the hero country needs” by Popdust , he has toured with Carrie Underwood, Chris Young and Kane Brown, among others. Doleac’s music has been described by Rolling Stone as “anchored not only in the trends of Top 40 radio, but also the blue-collar grit of Bob Seger and the bluesy influence of his Mississippi hometown.”
