Thomas Rhett Doesnā€™t Know If Heā€™ll Sing One of His Songs in Concert

Thomas Rhett kicks off The Center Point Road tour this weekend with back-to-back shows at The Wharf Amphitheater in Orange Beach Alabama on Friday and Saturday.

Thomas is super excited to be heading back to the stage, and canā€™t wait to play the music off of his Country Again: Side A album for the fans ā€“ like his number-one hit ā€œWhatā€™s Your Country Song?ā€

But thereā€™s actually one song that the crowds at Thomasā€™ shows might not get to hear.

On an album filled with deeply personal songs for him, ā€œHeaven Right Nowā€ is even more so.

Thomas co-wrote the track about a very close friend of his and his wife Lauren, named Hunter, that sadly passed away nearly a decade ago.

But even to this day Thomas thinks about his friend all the time, ā€œYeah, I wear this braceletā€¦Iā€™ve had this bracelet on for about 8 years now itā€™s got his initials on it soā€¦and Iā€™m reminded of him every single day and he was like a brother to my wife and one of the most amazing humans in the world and one of those people that every time you walked into a roomā€¦it didnā€™t matter if you were having the worst day in the world he made you smile and I think that is such an amazing quality to somebody can have it just to bring light into a room that maybe a little bit dark. So as we started writing this song I was like I canā€™t ride this not about him you know heā€™s the closest person to me that Iā€™ve ever had passed away.ā€

With the emotional punch that the lyrics have on Thomas ā€“ and anyone else who listens to the song and relates it to their own life ā€“ he canā€™t imagine where heā€™d sing it in his show, ā€œYeah, Iā€™m even debating whether Iā€™m actually going to play it. Itā€™s just one of those songs thatā€™s like, do you play it first? No. Do you play in the middle? Probably not. Do you end the show with it? Absolutely not.ā€

Thomas Rhettā€™s Country Again: Side A includes the title track which is a Top-10 ā€“ and climbing ā€“ hit songā€¦
