Ashley McBryde has released a rocking new song, “Made For This.”

The anthemic track was penned by Ashley and hit songwriter Travis Meadows, and was inspired by Ashley’s life as a touring artist.

“Travis Meadows and I wrote ‘Made For This,’ and at the time, I was still touring in a van and he was using his truck, so we definitely had touring and the life of musicians top of mind,” shares Ashley.

“But this song reaches beyond that. It’s not just touring musicians and bands and crews who are on the road 200+ days a year who are ‘calling home for a telephone goodnight kiss,'” she explains. “It’s also members of our military, our truck drivers and those that work long or odd hours sacrificing time with their family. We’re lucky we’re made for this.”

“Made For This” is the latest preview of Ashley’s forthcoming album, The Devil I Know. Due out September 8, the 11-song record will include its lead single, “Light On In The Kitchen,” which is #25 and rising on the country charts.

The Devil I Know is available for preorder now.
