Singer-songwriter Pete Hubbard is excited to announce the release of his brand-new single, “Whiskey & Wine.” This acoustic country folk song is a heartfelt tribute to the struggles of everyday working life and the small joys that that we would all rather be taking part in. The single will be available on all major streaming platforms from 18th October 2024.
Rooted in Pete Hubbard’s signature acoustic style, “Whiskey & Wine” offers a laid-back yet reflective vibe that connects with listeners on a deeply personal level. With its heartfelt lyrics and earthy guitar melodies, the song explores the balance between hard work and the need to savor life’s simple pleasures—and how working often feels like an endless and thankless task.
“I loved writing this song,” Pete explains. “It’s a commentary on working life, but more than that, it’s about appreciating the little things, like reading a good book, enjoying a walk through an autumnal wood and enjoying the world around us. Those are the moments that keep you going when the daily grind gets you down”
“I filmed the music video in Comer Woods, just outside of my home town Bridgnorth. I’ve always preferred being outside, I’m more like a squirrel or a fox than human and I think that reflects in this song and in the music video.”
Coming from Bridgnorth, Shropshire, Pete Hubbard is quickly gaining recognition for his authentic voice in the country and folk scene. His heartfelt lyrics, paired with stripped-down acoustic arrangements, create music that is both honest and relatable. “Whiskey & Wine” is no exception, offering a song that celebrates the simplicity of life in a complex world.
Fans of Acoustic Country can stream “Whiskey & Wine” on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and more for October 18th. Pete invites listeners to follow him on social media for updates on his latest releases and upcoming shows.
