“It’s the start of a brand-new year, a chance for you to start fresh, refocus and see what is really important in this life,” shares Marks. “This new song is all about good times, re-connecting with family and friends. Committing to yourself to make things better in the year ahead and not taking those special things for granted. It’s a country song for country people, so cheers. Here’s to you, here’s to me and a different kind of year!”
