On April 10, he dropped an official video for Ground I Grew Up On, and that came hours after the audio for Let There Be Country. Fans on YouTube reacted and the indications they already love these tracks became apparent. Over on Instagram, many others applauded him.
American Idol – Laine Hardy promised new music back in January
TV Shows Ace reported in January, that the new season of the ABC show would soon premiere. At the same time, Laine promised his fans more music. However, he knew they grew impatient. And, it seemed he’s confident singing covers by other artists but struggled with generating his own tracks. Back then, the Louisana Livingston Weekend reported that he’s “got a lot of music in [him],” but writing new songs is a challenge.” Now, he satisfied a lot of his fans by dropping the new tracks on YouTube within hours of each other.
The winner of last year’s American Idol took to his Instagram and announced the music up on the various platforms like Spotify and YouTube. Accompanying a short clip, he noted, “I am so excited to finally be able to release this new music! I hope these songs give you an idea of where I grew up on the Bayou.” He talked about “running through the fields with my cousins and fishing on Lake Maurepas.” Proudly from Louisiana, Laine reminded fans it holds a special place in his heart. He added, “I want to just keep making Louisianans proud.”
