He's finally talking about it.
Country music superstar Sam Hunt took most everyone by surprise back in 2019 when he was arrested for a DUI in Nashville, and he's finally addressing what happened and the ramifications it had on his marriage.
Hunt debuted the new song, "The Night I Got Locked Up," Tuesday night (3/14) for a bunch of industry people at the Ryman Auditorium as part of the annual Country Radio Seminar, or CRS.
"The night I got locked up / Everything went wrong / The night I got messed up / I should've just stayed home / Picked up my phone / What can I say / Well, I thought that you'd walk away / But you stood by your man / Like Tammy Wynette / Did everything / You could've just quit / No, but you showed me love / Kept going when the going got tough / The night I got locked up," Hunt sings in the searing chorus.
"The Night I Got Locked Up" is part of a new project Hunt is working on but not much else is known at this time, including a release date for new music.
