Sam Hunt Unexpectedly Boosts Interest in Endangered Species
“Save The Ridley” Shirt Featured in Hunt’s “Water Under the Bridge” Video Prompts Sea Turtle, Inc. to Reproduce the Vintage Tee
In a fortunate twist, country superstar Sam Hunt has boosted support and interest in endangered sea turtles with his “Save The Ridley” vintage t-shirt worn in his recent “Water Under the Bridge” music video. Sea turtle rescue and rehab facility, Sea Turtle, Inc. in south Texas, has received so much outreach and excitement for the shirt, they are bringing it back into production for a limited time.
Fans and sea turtle enthusiasts alike can pre-order the shirt now HERE from the non-profit organization with proceeds supporting Sea Turtle Inc’s mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and release injured sea turtles, educate the public, and assist with conservation efforts.
Hunt’s “Water Under the Bridge” follows his recent eighth No. 1 smash hit “23.” The pair of songs, both written by Hunt with Chris LaCorte, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne, are the latest from Hunt since his No. 1 debuting album SOUTHSIDE featuring multiple back-to-back No. 1 hits with “Breaking Up Was Easy in the 90’s,” “Kinfolks,” and “Hard To Forget.” The Platinum-selling project debuted to critical acclaim with the album and various tracks landing on multiple “Best of” lists for 2020 including The New York Times Best Albums and NPR’s Best Songs (“Hard To Forget”). The album earned additional praise from American Songwriter, Associated Press, Billboard¸ Entertainment Weekly, NPR, Pitchfork, Slate, The Ringer and more.
Hunt continues his summer tour filled with headlining shows across the country plus upcoming dates at Cheyenne Frontier Days and Windy City Smokeout. For more tour news, music, and information, visit SamHunt.com.
