With boots stomping, rhinestones shining, and whiskey flowing, Derek Brambles has officially dropped the rowdiest love letter Nashville never knew it needed. His electrifying new single “NashVegas” is a wild, boots-to-the-ceiling celebration of Music City’s after-hours magic, a place where bachelorettes dance in Lucchese boots, honky-tonks never sleep, and the ghosts of country legends linger just long enough to bless the next round.

From the very first downbeat, Brambles makes good on his promise: “I wanted it to feel like a celebration,” he shares. “It’s my love letter to the rowdy nights, neon lights, and honky-tonk heartbeat of Nashville. I recorded it right in the city with some of its finest players, and I wanted it to be a soundtrack for letting loose, singing loud, and soaking up everything that makes this town electric.”
Mission accomplished.
A Soundtrack for the Rowdy and Reverent
“NashVegas” is as much a country anthem as it is a Saturday night ritual. With lyrics that weave from the Ryman to Tootsie’s to Loser’s Bar, Brambles hits every neon-lit note of a full-throttle Nashville night out. The opening verse kicks things off cowboy-boot-first:
Here come the rhinestone cowboys / Drinkin’ whiskey loud, boys, on Honky Tonk HighwayBachelorettes come my way / Meet me at the Ryman
It’s a tongue-in-cheek, toe-tapping tip of the hat to a city that’s long blurred the lines between sacred tradition and unapologetic revelry. And Brambles isn’t just visiting these places he’s living them, right there in the thick of the crowd.
From Chicken Hot to Dolly Prayers
With clever references to Nudie suits, Second Avenue haunts, and even a shout-out to Dolly Parton herself, Brambles manages to spin a full-blown city tour into three minutes of country-pop adrenaline.
Scoot to the left, scoot to the right / Step to the middle till the middle feels rightSpin around once, drop it low, touch the floor / Bring it on up real slow, kick, stomp, slide, let’s go
It’s easy to imagine “NashVegas” igniting line dances at Broadway bars or turning up the energy at a tailgate. And yet, in the middle of all the fun, there’s a sincere reverence for Nashville’s legacy:
Well, I'm prayin' now to the country queen / Dolly Parton and the Grand Ole OpryHere I am, I'm a do-it-up mean / Hell, I'm puttin' country back in the country scene
Brambles walks the line between celebration and respect with the ease of a local, paying homage to the genre’s greats without losing the party.
A New Voice with an Old Soul
With “NashVegas,” Brambles positions himself as more than just a party-starter, he’s a keen-eyed storyteller, a showman with heart, and an artist who knows exactly where country music has been and where it’s headed. And he’s inviting you to come along for the ride.
Whether you’re two-stepping at a dive on Demonbreun or listening from a thousand miles away, “NashVegas” transports you straight into the glow of neon dreams and pedal steel promises. And in a city overflowing with country anthems, Derek Brambles just might have given it a new unofficial theme song. Because let’s be honest, there ain’t no place in the world like it. NashVegas.
