Country-rock sensation Tyler Braden has dropped his deeply personal and poignant new track ‘Call Me First' available now on all streaming platforms. Co-written by Braden alongside Sam Martinez, Cole Miracle, Zack Dyer, and John Robert Hall, the song follows his recent release ‘How It Starts' which debuted last month.
A Message of Support and Vulnerability
‘Call Me First' tackles one of the most significant topics Braden has ever written about: the stigma around emotional vulnerability, particularly among men. In the song, Braden challenges outdated notions of masculinity and emphasises the importance of open communication and mental health.
“This song speaks to a world where men, young and old, are taught to be ‘tough,’ to suppress their emotions, and to shoulder burdens alone,” Braden explains. “That mindset needs to change. It should feel natural to talk to friends and loved ones when something’s weighing on you.”
Braden hopes the track serves as a reminder to listeners that they are never alone and that there’s always someone willing to listen.
Lyrics That Resonate
With heartfelt lines like:
“If the demons you’ve been fightin’ / Get the drop on a worn-out heart / I ain’t sayin’ I can make it all better / But when it feels like it can’t get worse / Call me first,”
The song encourages listeners to reach out in times of struggle. The anthemic chorus and raw delivery reflect Braden’s urgent conviction to normalise conversations about mental health and emotional well-being.
A Growing Catalog of Meaningful Music
‘Call Me First' adds to Braden’s growing catalog of songs that resonate with listeners on a deeply emotional level. Following the success of ‘How It Starts' this track cements his reputation as a thoughtful and powerful storyteller in the country-rock genre.
Stay Connected
Tyler Braden’s new music comes with a mission: to inspire listeners to break down barriers and foster meaningful connections.
With ‘Call Me First' Braden delivers a message of hope and understanding, reinforcing his role as a voice for change in country music.
