“This
song has three of my favorite things in it: a beat that never stops, a
message that lies underneath, and some of my best friends writing and
playing it with me. There is so much joy in this new beginning, in
watching people’s eyes when they discover my voice, and in watching them
dance when they discover this song. I am thrilled to use this as an
introduction to who I am as a solo artist,” says Bush.

Written
by Bush along with his brother Brandon Bush and Tim Owens, “Trailer
Hitch,” is a clever and light-hearted tune that subtly carries the
message of enjoying the gift of giving back over the desire for
materials things.
