Sam Hunt Says his hit song ’23’ was inspired by a trip to the beach! ‘ … “That may have had something to do with it.

I just love that car, and we’ll do the southern route and go to L.A. and then go up to Northern California and then take the northern route back, and we’ve really enjoyed it.” I wonder if Tim McGraw HAS a cousin Eddie…he would almost HAVE to…
