NASHVILLE, TN (April 19, 2024) – Singer-songwriter Shane Profitt today releases his new track, “Whiskey With You,” available now via Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment (formerly BMLG Records). Following the release of sweet love song “Two Down” in February, “Whiskey With You” adds a fiery windows-down anthem to the young singer-songwriter’s already versatile discography, further cementing his undeniable, inherent talent for top-tier storytelling.

“‘Whiskey With You’ is an up-tempo, feel-good anthem,” shares Profitt.
Written by Profitt alongside Blake Bollinger, Chris Janson and Nate Kenyon, “Whiskey With You” is written from the perspective of someone who is looking to the bottle to help them move on from and forget a past partner. Instead, the whiskey acts as a catalyst for regressing to destructive but familiar habits with someone they know isn’t right for them. Profitt cleverly lists off things he likes to pair with his whiskey, but notes that his ex isn’t one of them – and it’s a lesson he’s learned the hard way. He sings, “I can mix whiskey with water / Mix whiskey with Coke® / Mix whiskey with folks that I know and I don’t / I can mix just about near everything with that ninety-something proof / It don’t mix, and I can’t fix / So I don’t mix this whiskey with you.”
“Whiskey With You” is the latest in a string of stand-alone tracks Profitt has released in recent months, including “Good Luck And God,” “I Am Who I Am” and “Two Down.” Profitt has been crisscrossing the country on tour with Aaron Lewis and is set to play several country music festivals this summer, including Country Festival 2024, Festival of the Bells 2024 and Riverfront Festival 2024.

ABOUT SHANE PROFITT: A salt-of-the-earth southerner with a straight-shooting swagger and kind smile, Shane Profitt’s musical toolbox is full of all-natural talent. At the end of 2021, he was still pulling overtime at his job with the city, busting his back about an hour south of Nashville and living for the weekend — with a few decades left to go. But now, the 23-year-old is signed to Big Machine Label Group, rocking sold-out crowds at the historic Ryman Auditorium, earning standing ovations at the Grand Ole Opry, and writing modern Country tunes so genuine, they slip on like a pair of broken-in work boots — because no one has to tell this singer-songwriter what a blue-collar life is all about. Profitt’s journey starts about two years ago, when his grandad asked what he wanted for Christmas and his wish was to learn how to play Hank Jr. songs on the guitar. Beginning with G, C, and D chords, he stuck with it. Gifted with a heavy-duty vocal, Profitt became a regular draw at the popular southern cooking chain, Puckett’s, traveling all over Tennessee to weekend shows while still holding down his job back home. While that made for some long hours, it also led to inspiration for original music. Across his 2023 Still Picks Up EP, which includes his Top 15 debut Country radio single “How It Oughta Be,” it’s clear he puts his life to music — along with the lives of so many others. The emerging artist is steadily releasing new music and continuing to hone his craft. Keep up with Shane Profitt at shaneprofitt.com.
