Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem” is currently #9 on the iTunes Charts and peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 last week. We first featured the song 2 1/2 years ago when we discovered the original writer and performer, Brantley Gilbert, who was unsigned at the time.
Gilbert also wrote “My Kinda Party”, which became a gold-selling #2 country hit for Jason Aldean in 2010.
