With some well known family roots in Nashville, it’s no surprise that Mitchell Tenpenny would name his new EP Linden Ave., the street where his grandmother, who was an inspiration to him once lived. Released on July 14, the EP consists of 6-tracks, including the nostalgic “Truck I Drove In High School.”
“Truck I Drove In High School” is a little trip down memory lane. Acquiring your first truck is a big deal, and although it might not have been new or shiny, you loved that truck more than anything. When you drove it, it made you feel like you were on top of the world. Back when life was simple in high school and your days were spent keeping it running and shinning it up. When you look back now, you wonder where that truck is now and does it still look the same.
They say ain’t nothin’ like the first time
And it was love at first drive
Yeah, I owned that road in that rusty gold old truck I drove in high school

Tenpenny takes a song about a truck and makes you want to get up and dance! With a catchy beat, Tenpenny’s cadence pairs perfectly with this truck anthem. “Truck I Drove in High School” exhibits Tenpenny‘s vocal range, his ability to be solid and then kick it up a notch during the chorus. The parallel between Tenpenny’s vocals and the instruments is foolproof, placing emphasis during the chorus and keeping it simple during the verses. “Truck I Drove in High School” will have you reminiscing about your first car too!
“Truck I Drove in High School” is available where all digital media is sold.
