Country Artist David Nail David Nail has announced to fans’ delight a brand new EP titled Bootheel 2021 will be released Friday, Nov. 5. The project is a continuation of his previously released Bootheel 2020 that came out in December of last year. This new collection of songs showcases his love and admiration for his hometown and family as you can hear special contributions from twins -- daughter, Lilli Cate, and son, Lawson -- in the prelude and postlude. The word “bootheel” holds a ton of meaning to David as it is often used to describe the region of Missouri that he grew up in and so fondly writes and sings about. Pre-save Bootheel 2021 here. “I’ve always been baffled by those who have this ‘can’t wait to get the hell outta here’ attitude about growing up in small towns,” said Nail. “It was so hard leaving Kennett, Missouri at 18 and then again at 20. It was so much a part of me and still is today! It’s amazing how often I sit down to write and all those memories flood out into a song.” “The Missouri native muses beautifully in this enchanting ballad about love and loss, using his state’s most iconic city as a memory trigger. I have always been a major fan of this guy, and this indicates that he still has the goods. The gentle, echoey, super tasteful production is a major plus, too,” said Robert K. Oermann in MusicRow of the already released single, “St. Louis.”
As the solo writer of this EP and many of the songs in his catalog, Bootheel 2021 showcases his creative talents in all of the right ways. This project was self-produced by Nail with the help of Reed Pittman. Bootheel 2021 Track 1. Prelude feat. Lilli Cate Nail 2. Comeback History 3. St. Louis 4. Raising You 5. Postlude feat.
