FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DAVID NAIL LAUNCHES BOOTHEEL 2021 WITH SELF-PENNED “ST. LOUIS”
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 24, 2021) – David Nail released a brand new single today titled, “St. Louis.” The song pays homage to a past love in the city that is so near and dear to his heart and kicks off the 2021 edition of his ongoing Bootheel project centered around life in his home state of Missouri. Fans of real and raw country music are sure to be excited for new David Nail tunes as he is renowned for his honest and top-quality output. Listen to “St. Louis” here!
“As the song begins with several references to Busch Stadium and watching the Cardinals game; creating that scene I knew it was going to be about St. Louis. It felt natural and there’s a real sense of tenderness in the story that the narrator shows, and that’s one of the reasons I enjoy listening to it the most,” says Nail.
“When I think about St. Louis, I can’t help but think of you
Yeah there’s something about this city, whenever I come passing through
I can’t help but reminisce,
If I had known it was our last kiss,
I never would left you in St. Louis”
“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.” – Robert K. Oermann, MusicRow Magazine
It’s no surprise that the GRAMMY-nominated and multi-platinum artist’s vocal talents are second to none but it’s his gift of songwriting that is captivating fans on these new tunes. As the solo writer of this song, along with many of the songs in his catalog, “St. Louis” showcases his writing talents in all of the right ways.

About David Nail
Hailing from Kennett, Missouri, David Nail is well-respected up and down Music Row. The GRAMMY-nominated multi-platinum singer/songwriter’s early releases, I’m About To Come Alive, The Sound Of A Million Dreams, I’m A Fire and Fighter, ignited his reputation as an innovator and creative risk-taker yet left Nail feeling restless. Through dealing with his own journey of mental illness and the feeling of needing to “rebel against what people expect you to be,” Nail began making his most “organic” work to date, David Nail & The Well Ravens, with Jason Hall and Andrew Petroff. That project liberated Nail and propelled him into his next adventure. Writing solo for the next few months led to his debut solo independent EP Oh, Mother, a reflective piece of work. That release was followed by Bootheel 2020, a project dedicated to the singer/songwriter’s hometown in the “bootheel” of Missouri. Nail plans on releasing more music throughout 2021, leaving behind any self-imposed restrictions. In Nail’s own words, “My philosophy has always been, I just hope to have a good enough year that I can have a next year while staying as true to myself as I possibly can.” Find more at www.davidnail.com.
