Hailey Whitters has joined forces with Grammy-nominated country singer Brent Cobb for their new song “Glad To Be Here.”

Released today, the song stems from the deluxe edition of Whitters’ sophomore studio album The Dream, which includes the singer collaborating with a handful of artists. When it comes to working with Cobb, Whitters said:

“Throughout the whirlwind release of THE DREAM, I kept catching myself sayin', ‘I'm just glad to be here,’. I truly felt at peace with my process and was enjoying getting to see dreams come true that I had nearly given up on, believing they would ever happen. I went to go write a song about it, and realized Brent Cobb, Neil Medley, and Brent Rupard had already done it – and done it really well. I knew I couldn't top it, so I recorded this one and asked my pal Brent to sing on it with me. He went out on a limb by asking me to open for his SUCKER FOR A GOOD TIME TOUR in the fall of 2019, and he's also my favorite country singer-songwriter of this generation, so it was a high honor to have him singin' on this one with me.”

The deluxe edition of The Dream will be released on February 26 via Pigasus Records/Big Loud Records/Songs & Daughters.
