Ordinary Day

Music City was written by Brian Allison and his four children. Lynn(11), Miles(11), June(10) Grady Allison(8). Over Christmas break in 2023, Brian's children asked if they could play video games. Brian told them they had to write a verse and chorus first. They all collectively shaped a song into a romantic love ballad about making your move on your love interest while out on the town in Nashville, TN. June Allison (10) sang harmonies on this song.
