Nick Hickman’s Latest Release, “Lessons Learned,” Is a Tribute to Life’s Hard-Won Wisdom

NASHVILLE, TN (July 26, 2024) — Country music artist Nick Hickman has unveiled his newest single, “Lessons Learned,” a heartfelt ode to the wisdom that comes with age and experience. Co-written with Jeff Glasscock, the song captures the poignant realization of the value behind parental guidance and the lessons imparted by life’s trials. This compelling track is now available on all major digital music platforms. Fans can also watch the accompanying video on Hickman’s official YouTube channel here.

A Personal Journey Through Generations

“I wanted to write a song from the perspective of a kid growing up and finally understanding what their parents did for them,” Hickman explained. “We all think we know everything when we’re young. As we get older, we realize the sacrifices our parents made and the wisdom they gained through their own struggles. I’m thankful for the lessons I learned through the lessons they lived.”

Glasscock added, “‘Lessons Learned’ speaks to that moment of clarity when you recognize that your parents’ advice was rooted in their own experiences. It’s a universal truth that resonates with everyone.”

The lyrics of “Lessons Learned” reflect this profound message:

How does your momma know exactly what to say when you’re down? How does your daddy know to check the oil before you leave town? They’ve been there, they’ve done that, walked uphill there and back… All the wisdom earned comes from them lessons learned.

The song’s rich narrative and emotional resonance are brought to life by a masterful blend of heartfelt lyrics and Hickman’s signature country sound.

Behind the Scenes

Recorded at Whiskey Neat Records in Nashville, “Lessons Learned” was produced by Hickman, Christian Santangelo, and Jeff Glasscock. A talented team of session musicians contributed to the track, including Andy Hull (drums), Dow Tomlin (bass), Jeff Glasscock (guitars), Will Adkins (keys), Andy Ellison (steel guitar, mandolin, and banjo), and Christian Santangelo (harmonies).

The official video, produced by Jordan Dziekan, captures the essence of the song with its warm, reflective visuals, set against the backdrop of Nashville.
