Imagine a song that links three different times in country music history. That is the feeling of “Broken Branches” by Dierks Bentley. He brought in two exceptional singers, John Anderson and Riley Green. This song became the main idea for Bentley’s whole new album.
The song celebrates being the “black sheep” of your family. It says the people who love honky-tonks and old songs are a community. Riley Green sings about being an outcast who finds his place in the bar. The music honors traditional country sounds.

The music video made a lot of noise with fans. It features the funny comedian Chelcie Lynn, better known as Tammy. Viewers loved seeing her join the “family reunion” in the video. Many people praised Riley’s strong, genuine voice in the comments. One viewer said they were there to see and hear Riley.
The strong friendship that made “Broken Branches” so special was already known on the road. Before they sang in the studio, Riley Green and Dierks Bentley were touring partners. They often joined forces with their friend, Parker McCollum, to give fans a big surprise.

The three singers performed the iconic driving anthem “East Bound And Down” on the road in 2021. It is an old favorite by Jerry Reed from the Smokey and the Bandit film. This road performance was released to kick off Bentley’s “Beers On Me Tour.” It was a fun way to honor a classic song and share the love of the open highway.
Riley Green’s success comes from his honest, straightforward style. His voice connects the feeling of old country with listeners today. He stands for that spirit of always doing things your own way.
