Parker Graye, the rising star in Canadian country music, follows up her heartbreaking debut EP Lyin’ To Me with a fresh, new single titled “Won’t Be You.”
True to her slogan #SaddiesForTheBaddies, this new track is a spirited eye roll at the overconfident cowboys who frequent Broadway on a Saturday night.
The Story Behind “Won’t Be You”
“Won’t Be You” is an anthem for anyone who’s ever had to fend off unwanted advances from self-assured cowboys.
With her signature blend of great lyrics and dreamy vocals, Parker lists off the stereotypical characteristics of these cowboys—think cleaned up short bed Chevys and broken-in Red Wings … and tastefully shoos them away.
The message is clear. No matter what these cowboys do or say, it won’t be their lucky day …
… savage.

In country music, the Front Porch has long been a place of reflection. A place where you can look at the life you have inside that front door. A place where time almost seems to stand still, where you can get away. It’s also a place where you can go to observe the world as it passes by you. To think about your place out there beyond the driveway.
