Alan Doyle

from Inside Today's Country · host Tim Black

This week we chat with Canadian music legend Alan Doyle. He has a new single, new EP and a coast to coast tour. “‘We Don’t Wanna Go Home’ is about the greatest night of your life being interrupted by the tolling of the last call bell at the pub. The speakers in the song cry the most desperate plea to the publican to keep the place open for at least one more round,” Doyle says. Doyle co-wrote the song with Donovan Woods and Todd Clark. Doyle and Brody reunite again, having previously released the song “Soggy Bottom Waters” from Brody’s 2016 album Beautiful Freakshow, and “It’s Friday” from 2012’s Dirt. “I am so glad the stars aligned and we got together with a bunch of pals to sing and shout ‘We Don’t Wanna Go Home.’" As a solo artist and a member of Great Big Sea, Alan has gotten 360,000 spins and 1.8 billion audience impressions on Canadian radio. The songwriter, producer, actor and author is a 12-time JUNO Award nominee for his solo material and work with his iconic band Great Big Sea. In 2018, he was awarded the Order of Canada for his contributions to the musical traditions of Newfoundland and for his commitment to numerous charitable initiatives.
