Zac Brown doesn’t just make music, he’s also a fan. So, when it comes to the songs he makes he likes to create tracks that he’d listen to as a fan. For Zac Brown Band’s new one, “Same Boat,” Zac says that for him it’s satisfying to listen to on a couple of levels. First, it’s a great listen. Second, there is a message that fans can take away and he really loves when music has both of those elements mixed in. “So that idea, actually started with Jonathan Singleton and Ben Simonetti brought this idea of ‘Same Boat’ to the table and I loved it because instead of hearing about how divided we are, this song’s taking about how we’re all the same. And we go through a lot of the same struggles, and I think you can have a great time, listening to this song, or you can just listen to the lyrics and really get a deeper message on it, but I like songs that you can catch on a different levels.”
