Mitch Bradford Releases Uplifting New Song "I Can Fly"
This Marks the Third Release from His Forthcoming Album Close

California Country artist Mitch Bradford has released his new single “I Can Fly” today, July 29. The track is the third release from his upcoming 4th studio album, Close, available August 12. The inspirational track shares a different side of the budding artist and showcases his knack for 70s radio rock with a country/americana flair. Listen to the song here.
“The song is about how love can make you feel like a superhero. I wrote the song during the pandemic. I was sitting on the grass outside my apartment having dinner with my girlfriend and she asked if I wanted to go up the block to grab some wine with dinner. I’ve struggled with addiction, so I have to be smart if I’m ever going to drink," Mitch shared exclusively with Music Crowns. "In that moment, I thought no — I’m feeling great right here. I don’t need a drink or drug because I’m feeling great right now. Love can make you feel like a superhero. That’s what the song is about. I wrote it the next day.”
The new album was recorded in its entirety at the historic Studio D at The Village where Fleetwood Mac recorded their music. Mitch prioritized staying true to capturing the heart of California in each song from the very beginning of the recording process. Finding great integrity in creating music with lyrics and sound that illustrate nothing but the most genuine messages of positivity and passion while also showcasing an enduring respect for the past and all that surrounds him, Mitch has created a timeless tune with “Slow It Down.”

While his love for music began as a child in the small town of Brownsville, Texas, Mitch eventually headed out West to make a name for himself in music. He has accrued over 1 million streams on Spotify with fan favorite tracks such as “Love Is Kind” and “Sweet Defender.” The forthcoming release of Close is particularly meaningful to Mitch as he completely funded the project himself, compiling all the money he made from shows, and through investing and selling cryptocurrency to bring the whole project to reality. The release later this year will mark the first time a country record has ever been fully funded by crypto, with the more meaningful component to this being that it will mark an independent artist taking full control of his dreams, and investing in the work he believes in passionately and wholeheartedly.
