Brett Young performed his current single, “Lady,” as part of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’s #PlayAtHome series. A number of artists—including Rhiannon Giddens, Lucinda Williams, Carlie Hanson and more—have taken part in the quarantined-inspired series, which, as its name implies, features artists performing at home.
Brett co-penned “Lady” with Ross Copperman and Jon Nite shortly before the birth of his daughter in October 2019.
“‘Lady’ is easily one of the most special songs I’ve ever written,” says Brett. “I always knew I would want to write songs for my children, but didn’t realize the inspiration would come so quickly before my daughter was even born. It’s a message to Presley about her mom and it became a pretty obvious choice for my first single in a new chapter of music. It’s so meaningful to Taylor and I, and I hope it resonates in a similar way for anyone who listens.”
