"Hometown Home" is a song about cherishing the simplicity of life and building a future in a familiar place filled with memories. "It's about planting roots, hand-holding, kitchen dancing," explained LoCash. "An anthem for building a life together. It's about creating a home inside a town you've always known. It's a reminder for all of us of how important our roots are. We think about how lucky we are with our wives and families - knowing we would go wherever they want to go, but a li'l reminder that we could stay right where we started." LoCash's Preston Brust and Chris Lucas co-authored the song with Zach Abend (Chris Lane's "Drunk People," Kenny Chesney's "Take Her Home") and Andy Albert (Blake Shelton's "She's Got a Way With Words," Dustin Lynch's "Good Girl"). They penned it during the pandemic over Zoom, a time when many of us were longing for comfort and familiarity. Produced by Jacob Rice, the song features contributions from Sol Philcox (electric guitar and bass), Grady Saxman (drums and percussion) and Andy Ellison (acoustic and steel guitar). "Hometown Home" was released on April 19, 2024, under he Galaxy Label Group, which LoCash co-founded earlier that year. The song debuted at #91 on the Billboard Hot 100, LoCash's first appearance on that chart since "One Big Country Song," which peaked at #50 in 2019. The song climbed to #1 Billboard's Country Airplay chart dated April 12, 2025. This feat ended an eight years, six months, and two-week gap since their previous visit to the summit with "I Know Somebody," making them the most patient act in country music since David Lee Murphy, who waited 22 years between top spots in 1995-2018.
We could try the coast of Carolina Catch the OuterBanks sunrise Every day of our lives Find a little spot in Arizona Decorate the kitchen with a Tex-Mex vibe From the Sunshine State to the Golden Gate Anywhere you wanna roll, I'll love But I got another idea, we could kick it right here Ain't even gotta load that truck We could make this hometown home Keep our roots where they've always grown Find a fixer upper down that road From the Church of Christ, where ya got baptized We could raise a couple kids up good In the same red dirt little neck of the woods, yeah Girl, I'm down to go anywhere you wanna go But if you wanna stay I was thinkin' we could make this hometown home (We could make this hometown home) We could go to your Grandma's every Sunday You know I love her and her five star suppers Take it back to the field we had our first date Find a star we ain't wished on yet Girl, we just won't find our names spray painted Under any other Main Street bridge If we hit that road in a Winnebago Imagine all the things we'd miss We could make this hometown home Keep our roots where they've always grown Find a fixer upper down that road From the Church of Christ, where ya got baptized We could raise a couple kids up good In the same red dirt little neck of the woods, yeah Girl, I'm down to go anywhere you wanna go But if you wanna stay I was thinkin' we could make this hometown home We could make this hometown home From the Sunshine State to the Golden Gate Anywhere you wanna roll, I'll love But I got another idea, we can kick it right here Ain't even gotta load that truck We can make this hometown home Keep our roots where they've always grown Find a fixer upper down that road From the Church of Christ, where ya got baptized We could raise a couple kids up good In the same red dirt little neck of the woods, yeah Girl, I'm down to go anywhere you wanna go But if you wanna stay I was thinkin' we could make this hometown home (We can make this hometown home) ooh Hometown home (We can make this hometown home) We can make this hometown home (hometown home) (Hometown home)
