HARDY is undeniably one of country music\u2019s most talented and creative songwriters. During the Listening Room\u2019s 20th anniversary at the Ryman Auditorium, he debuted a new song about something that\u2019s heartbreakingly timely and relatable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

HARDY Performs \u2018Tommy Made the News\u2019<\/h2>\n
\n

HARDY\u2019s new track follows \u201cTommy.\u201d The first verse paints a picture of a typical student getting ready for school, until it turns bleak. \u201cTommy woke up for school this morning \/ Had everything he needed in his old backpack \/Ketchup and a fried egg waiting for him \/ And he pulled out the drive just to never come back.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The second verse described Tommy\u2019s fate: \u201cTill 10 a.m. it was just another Monday \/ And everybody went a-running and locking their doors \/ Well, hollow points rained like hell in the hallway \/ And they found Tommy on the bathroom floor.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In the chorus, the new father described the nightmare parents who lost their child experience: \u201cWell, Tommy made the news \/ Heaven sang the blues \/ Tommy\u2019s mama cried \/ Whole damn town did too\/ What a mess the Devil made \/ What a Hell they have to go through \/ Lord, ain\u2019t it a shame \/ That Tommy made the news.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Singing Difficult Songs<\/h2>\n
\n

HARDY\u2019s catalog is an eclectic mix of beer drinking anthems, odes to country music, and the occasional song that covers difficult topics. Aside from \u201cTommy Made the News,\u201d which tackled school shooting, HARDY\u2019s \u201cWait in the Truck<\/a>\u201d featuring Lainey Wilson is about domestic violence, while \u201cGIVE HEAVEN SOME HELL<\/a>\u201d is a song about grieving the death of someone you love.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
