LISTEN! Zac Brown Band's John Driskell Hopkins Shares Heartfelt New Song Amid ALS Battle

John Driskell Hopkins, the charismatic founding member of the Grammy Award-winning Zac Brown Band, has opened his heart to the world with his latest single, "I Love You Forever." This deeply personal track pays homage to his three daughters and serves as a powerful statement of love in the face of life's challenges.

Written and performed with fellow Zac Brown Band member Clay Cook, "I Love You Forever" captures the profound bond between a father and his children. Hopkins’ rich baritone voice carries the emotion of each word, blending heartache and hope into a timeless melody. The song’s significance is amplified by the context of its creation. The track is the first song Hopkins wrote after being diagnosed with ALS in December 2021.

In a candid reflection, Hopkins shared how the song came to be: "I'm trying to tell them fatherly things about situations that we haven't been in yet, so I'm looking toward this future that I don't understand and trying to get ahead of it. What I want for them to understand is that this is bigger than me. This thing that binds us and that keeps us together as a family never goes away. I want them to know that I will be with them forever.”

For Hopkins, music is more than a career, it’s a lifeline. "I Love You Forever" doesn’t just offer solace to his daughters; it resonates with anyone who has ever struggled to put love into words. Through his artistry, Hopkins transforms pain into poetry, proving that even in uncertainty, love endures.

This song isn’t just an addition to Hopkins’ catalog, it’s a legacy, capturing a father’s unwavering devotion and a musician’s relentless passion. As listeners tune in, they’ll find not just a melody but a message: no matter the challenges, love is forever.
