MICKEY GUYTON MAKES A HEARTFELT PLEA WITH NEW SONG \u201cHEAVEN DOWN HERE\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Capitol Nashville\u2019s Mickey Guyton<\/strong> released a new track today titled \u201cHeaven Down Here<\/strong>,\u201d listen HERE<\/a>. Written by Mickey along with Gordie Sampson, Josh Kear and Hillary Lindsey, \u201cHeaven Down Here\u201d is a plea to God to help our current world.\u00a0 NPR<\/em> praises Mickey as \u201c\u2026a poised and galvanizing country-pop conscience, at once consummate pro, steadfast optimist and truth-teller,\u201d which \u201cHeaven Down Here\u201d continues to support alongside her other recent releases \u2013 \u201cBlack Like Me\u201d and \u201cWhat Are You Gonna Tell Her?\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cSitting at home and watching the world burn down around me during this pandemic led me to write \u2018Heaven Down Here\u2019\u201d, explains Guyton. \u201cIt is a song asking God to spare a little love for this world in need. This song came from the very depths of my heart and has given me a renewed sense of self.\u00a0 It has real raw emotion and was written with a therapeutic intent of healing my heart.\u00a0 I hope that everyone can hear that intent and receive the same healing. \u201c<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In recent weeks, the Texas native was featured on the cover of Pollstar (read HERE<\/a>) and chatted with CBS This Morning<\/em>\u2019s (watch HERE<\/a>) Gayle King and Anthony Mason about the reaction to her powerful autobiographical song \u201cBlack Like Me<\/strong>,\u201d which continues to receive acclaim from critics and fans. Written at a cross-genre writing camp in 2019, \u201cBlack Like Me\u201d is one of NPR\u2019s 25 Favorite Songs of 2020.\u00a0 The song is a gut-punch that \u201cnudges America\u2019s conscience with personal truth and gospel fervor\u201d according to HITS<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mickey\u2019s focus has been on her songwriting through which she has found her voice and continues to speak her truth. This year she also released the honest and unapologetic \u201cWhat Are You Gonna Tell Her?<\/strong>\u201d, which NPR calls \u201ca cry of the heart by a remarkable singer and writer who deserves to be a full-on superstar.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mickey is currently working on an EP to be released this Fall.<\/p>\n
