"Tucson Too Late" is a song by American country music singer Jordan Davis. It was released on August 21, 2023, as the fourth single off Davis's album Bluebird Days.
Content[edit]
Jordan Davis told Billboard writer Tom Roland that he wanted to create a song that evoked country music of the 1990s, as well as Keith Whitley's "Miami, My Amy".
Davis's brother Jacob had originally conceived the song as "Tulane Too Late", making wordplay on Tulane University and a two-lane road. They began working on the song together with Matt Jenkins and his brother Josh while Jordan was on tour. Josh composed the melody using a nylon-string guitar, on which he played several minor chords and a five-note riff. The four writers then presented a demo to producer Paul DiGiovanni. The final recording of the song includes Derek Wells and Ilya Toshinsky on guitar, Jimmie Lee Sloas on bass guitar, Nir Z on drums, and Alex Wright on keyboards. Vocalist Trey Keller also contributes thirteen different backing vocal tracks.[1]
