Congrats to Hardy and Lainey for winning the CMA award for musical event of the year and Music Video of the Year! The song sheds a light on a very important matter, Written by HARDY and Phelps alongside Jordan Schmidt and Renee Blair, “wait in the truck” deals with domestic violence and the vigilante justice that follows. These are Hardy´s first ever CMA-wins!
If you haven’t seen the music video, I’ll strongly recommend it. This is country music at its finest, using music as a channel to shed light on certain matters. It's important, and maybe also life changing for people living under those conditions.
Info for songwriter geeks
Hardy got the song idea after talking with Hunter Phelps what they would do if someone harmed their significant other. Hardy supposedly said that he would tell his partner to take him to the
assailant’s location and then ask that she wait in the truck. The guys sort of laughed at the idea, but then, it occurred to him that "Wait In the Truck" was an amazing song title.
