Lynch revealed that as the Nashville community continues to learn about his mission to bring original material into his DJ sets, genre-blurring pitches have started to be sent his way. \u201cHome To You\u201d was one of the tracks that ended up in his hands.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dustin Lynch; Photo by Jack Owens<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Lynch told <em>Country Now<\/em> that the energy he felt after listening to the demo for the first time was electric. He realized just how special it was when it gave him goosebumps, which is something only a couple other songs have done throughout his career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was like the first time I heard, I think, what my future is and where I belong in the electronic world in a song. And I was just thrilled because they had captured\u2026the lyric initially, had captured just a lot of what we believe in as country music. It was real.\u201d he explained. \u201cIt was something you could really attach to, and I\u2019m definitely attached to it. I think it\u2019s something I\u2019m looking for lyrically in life, and I just had a gut feeling about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DO_2NOsj7_V\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:540px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\"\/>\n<p>Penned by Lynch, Matt &amp; Chris Drake (of MC4D), Brandon Davis, and Trent Tomlinson, the heartfelt, feel-good country anthem hones in on the simple joys of returning home to the one you love.

He delivered a live performance Daytime Pool Situation at Wynn\u2019s Encore Beach Club and brought a Club Set to XS Nightclub.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were right at being in Las Vegas performing a couple times a month. So I was in front of crowds and really feeling what was reacting and what I felt comfortable with on stage performing. And I just knew it would be a perfect fit for this new genre we\u2019re a part of and this new type of show we\u2019re a part of just so stoked that this is our next release and I can\u2019t wait for the world to hear it,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Dustin Lynch; Photo by Mike Kirschbaum\" class=\"wp-image-99577 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-683x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-344x516.jpg 344w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27.jpg 800w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Dustin Lynch; Photo by Mike Kirschbaum\" class=\"wp-image-99577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27-344x516.jpg 344w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Untitled-design-27.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dustin Lynch; Photo by Mike Kirschbaum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Fans got to hear \u201cHome To You\u201d for the first time on the fourth of July when Dustin Lynch was performing at the Encore Beach Club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo matter who you are, you can relate to that song, whether it\u2019s missing your significant other or missing somebody that is looking down on you or missing your dog at home and coming back to them, coming back to what makes you whole in life. And that\u2019s kind of how I introduced the song on July 4th and it really connected. The fans immediately started singing along and reacting to it,\u201d he recalled. \u201cWe had great video of that. It\u2019s like the first crowd that ever heard this song besides me and my team, and it\u2019s something I\u2019ll never forget.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This may be a new sound for Dustin Lynch, but it isn\u2019t the first time he\u2019s collaborated with MC4D and other DJs. Earlier this year, he joined forces with these artists for <em>Club Set Remixes<\/em>, an EP featuring EDM reworks of a few of his fan-favorite tracks including \u201cSmall Town Boy,\u201d \u201cSeein\u2019 Red,\u201d \u201cThinking \u2019Bout You,\u201d \u201cStars Like Confetti,\u201d and his latest country radio single, \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/dustinlynch.lnk.to\/easytolove\">Easy To Love<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The expansion of Lynch\u2019s sound has come very \u201corganically.\u201d He stressed that this wasn\u2019t a calculated career move, but once he leaned into the idea, it opened doors he hadn\u2019t anticipated. Now, he\u2019s grateful for the new opportunities that have come his way.<\/p>\n<p>He cut his teeth DJing at an afterparty for the PBR World Finals, where he was tasked with putting together a 30-minute set blending country hits with electronic, dance, and hip-hop tracks. What started as a nerve-wracking challenge quickly turned inspiring as he noticed the crowd respond with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DOJpkS1j-iY\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:540px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\"\/>\n<p>Since then, Lynch has collaborated with other artists in the electronic world like MOONLGHT, MC4D, Dirty Audio, MAKJ, and Bryce Vine, showing that his music can resonate in unexpected ways. The opportunities haven\u2019t slowed down since, making it clear to Lynch that he\u2019s received a warm welcome into this new world of music.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt went really well,\u201d he recalled. \u201cThe phone started ringing the next day and we got booked to play Live in Miami. We got booked to play at Toronto\u2026we opened for Diplo and they called again and said, \u2018Hey, we\u2019re loving what you\u2019re doing. We want you to offer you a residency in 2025.\u2019 And then it was like, oh wow, I want to start trying to make this be a thing and really start diving in and trying to write some of this music. So I did and I, for whatever reason, thought that the dance world will be like, \u2018Hey, get out of our sandbox.\u2019 But they\u2019ve been nothing but open arms and welcoming me and the collaborations just keep coming in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dustin Lynch has had years of success as a country artist, but with this new venture, he\u2019s experiencing a different kind of joy. Plus, it has inspired him to look at his country shows through a new lens.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m 13 years into being on country radio. I\u2019m having the most fun I\u2019ve ever had, not only writing music and producing music, but there\u2019s this cool offset that the show allows me to kind of rest the country show a little bit and give me a creative break\u2026I\u2019m approaching the country shows with the new energy because of the DJ sets and these club sets. So it\u2019s just been a really fun year. I\u2019m just riding this wave, whatever the universe is dealing right now and really loving it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on the bigger picture, Lynch shared his excitement about how this new direction is not just expanding his own sound, but also pushing country music into new spaces. Looking at the impact of his recent projects, he sees an opportunity to take country music to new audiences around the world in a fresh way<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just the perfect timing of everything. We\u2019re seeing country music really now globally with the success of Luke Combs and Morgan Wallen on the global charts and Shaboozey doing his thing all over the place. These songs are getting in places that country music has never been American, country music has never been. It\u2019s just the perfect timing for all this to be happening and it\u2019s just really exciting and we\u2019ve got more behind home to you, so I can\u2019t wait to get that out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Dustin Lynch, Scotty McCreery; TWO FOR THE ROAD TOUR\" class=\"wp-image-94602 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-819x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-413x516.jpg 413w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Dustin Lynch, Scotty McCreery; TWO FOR THE ROAD TOUR\" class=\"wp-image-94602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT-413x516.jpg 413w, https:\/\/countrynow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TFTR_ADMAT.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dustin Lynch, Scotty McCreery; TWO FOR THE ROAD TOUR<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dustin Lynch and Scotty McCreery\u2019s co-headlining TWO FOR THE ROAD TOUR kicks off November 6 in Saginaw, MI, and features 12 hit-heavy stops across the U.S. The anticipated run wraps December 6 in Duluth, MN.<\/p>\n<p>He teased that this will be a very \u201ccollaborative\u201d run as they collectively take on meet and greets before the show as well as performing a handful of songs together on stage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"pmdelayedscript\" data-cfasync=\"false\" data-no-optimize=\"1\" data-no-defer=\"1\" data-no-minify=\"1\">\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\nif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\nn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script',\n'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '2335736946692711'); \nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source countrynow.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI\u2019m just riding this wave, whatever the universe is dealing right now and really loving it.\u201d Dustin Lynch is taking his music in an exciting new direction with the release of his new single \u201cHome To You\u201d featuring twin-brother folktronica DJ duo MC4D.
