Eric is capping off the Even If It Breaks Your Barefoot Friday Night project with the No. 1 single, “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” made popular by Eli Young Band. The song went on to be certified 2x multi-platinum by the RIAA, named one of the “Top 100 Songs of the Decade” by Country Aircheck and GRAMMY and ACM nominated. The album also includes the No. 1, platinum-certified, and another “Top 100 Songs of the Decade” winner, “Angel Eyes,” recorded by Love and Theft. “She Don’t Love You,” released by Paslay himself, was ACM-nominated for Song of the Year and another renowned success.

“I’ve loved these songs from the day I wrote them. Finally, as an independent artist, I had the opportunity to reimagine, record and own these masters. People have always asked if I’m more of a singer or more of a songwriter. The answer is I’m both and always will be and this project exemplifies just that,” said Paslay.
