Bringing Back the Sunshine

Bringing Back the Sunshine is the ninth studio album by American country music singer Blake Shelton.

[4] The album's second single, "Lonely Tonight", received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

The title and September 30, 2014 release date for Bringing Back the Sunshine were both announced on August 1, 2014, one day after Shelton performed a free concert on the beach in Atlantic City to an audience of over 60,000 and the same day that he performed a concert at Madison Square Garden.

[16] Shelton described Bringing Back the Sunshine as "a throwback" to his first few albums, saying, "I want to sing all kinds of songs" but also "I got very far away from what I used to sound like".

[22] "Good Country Song" was written specifically for Shelton and references his favorite music artist, Earl Thomas Conley.
