Like everyone else, Tim McGraw’s 2020 didn’t go like he thought it would. But now with the year coming to a close, he wanted to release a song as a “thank you” for all the support he’s received this year from fans.
Tim’s version of “It Wasn’t His Child” is available now.
He says, “It’s been a crazy year and we’ve worked hard to put out music, knowing how much it can mean and provide solace in difficult times…this is our final chance to thank everyone for sticking with us this year and more importantly, provide some Christmas spirit to you this holiday season.”
Tim has loved this song for years. It was back in 2003, when he first performed it, at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway. While he has sang it here and there since, including most recently on this year’s CMA Country Christmas special, he has never officially released it.
Originally written and performed by Skip Ewing, Tim’s version was arranged and co-produced by his longtime band leader Danny Hemingson along with Steve Gibson and Byron Gallimore.
Tim shared on social media “Loved singing this one on the #CMAchristmas special and wanted to release it for the holidays.”
