Music has taken the young members of Edens Edge on an intriguing journey and they are thankful for the ride. “We’ve really grown up together and we’ve moved here and created a life together and I think that kind of history is organic,” says Dean. “We came together naturally-- just for the purpose of having fun and playing music. That’s part our chemistry- we’re all doing something that we love together.”
Cherrill and Hannah agree. “We’ve grown together and changed together,” says Cherrill while Hannah adds, “We’ve found or have written music that moves us and inspires us. We just trust that the music will speak for itself. You do what you do and hope people will love it and can connect with it because our first love--as much as we love playing and writing music--our first love is inspiring others through music.”
Too Good to Be True was released in April 2012 as the group's second single, and their self-titled debut album was released via Big Machine Records on June 12, 2012.
In March 2013, it was announced that Edens Edge had parted ways with Big Machine Records and that member Hannah Blaylock had left the band.
Who Am I Drinking Tonight
Edens Edge Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Boy, after only just a couple of dates
You're hands down, outright blowing my mind
In nearly every single way
You're amazing and yet
There's only so much I can get
From picnics, long walks, flowers and talks
It's time I see ya belly-up to a bar
How 'bout ya show me what kind of cowboy you are?
Are you a Kenny tequila, Buffet margarita
Or an Alan Jackson hurricane?
Are you a good time, flask of moonshine
Going George Strait to my brain?
A girl can tell a lot about a boy in one shot
I gotta know you've got a Bocephus side
So what's in the cup, order it up
Who am I drinking tonight?
You might not have guessed
Judging by my heels and lacy dress
I'm a wide-neck Gretchen, Loretta Lynn
I've learned from the best
Women like that know how to throw a few back
We gotta have a man who can keep up with all that
Are you a Kenny tequila, Buffet margarita
Or an Alan Jackson hurricane?
Are you a good time, flask of moonshine
Going George Strait to my brain?
A girl can tell a lot about a boy in one shot
I gotta know you've got a Bocephus side
So what's in the cup, order it up
Who am I drinking tonight?
Oh yeah
So pick your poison and make it two
What kinda trouble are we gettin' into?
Are you a Kenny tequila, Buffet margarita
Or an Alan Jackson hurricane?
Are you a good time, flask of moonshine
Going George Strait to my brain?
A girl can tell a lot about a boy in one shot
I gotta know you've got a Bocephus side
So what's in the cup, order it up
Who am I drinking?
Another round, throwing 'em down
Boy, what ya thinking?
What's in the cup, order it up
Who am I drinking tonight?
Oh yeah
The song 'Who Am I Drinking Tonight' by Edens Edge is a fun, flirtatious country track that incorporates clever metaphors to describe the stages of a relationship. The lyrics describe the singer's desire to get to know her date on a deeper level. It's suggested that drinks are a good way to do that, as it can reveal a lot about a person's character. The female singer asks the male singer to belly up to the bar so she can learn about what type of cowboy he is. She wants to know if he's a Kenny tequila, a Buffet margarita or an Alan Jackson hurricane because those choices will tell her more about his personality. She wants to see a different side of him that she hasn't seen on their prior dates of picnics and long walks. She wants to know if he's got a 'Bocephus' side, referencing Hank Williams Jr. The singer puts the power in the male’s hands to choose his poison and pick the direction the night will go. It's a playful song that encapsulates the thrill of getting to know someone new in the early stages of a relationship.
The song was written by Shane McAnally, Catt Gravitt, and Josh Osborne. It was released as the third single from the band's self-titled debut album.
