Aaron Goodvin gave 91.5 CochraneNow a shout on Wednesday morning. 

The Lonely Drum, You Are & Bars and Churches singer who's song went platinum is about to release Lonely Drum in the United States 

Goodvin says he has high hopes for Lonely Drum down south. 

"You know, we have every reason to believe that it'll catch on in the same way in the US as it did in Canada. I've been waiting a long time to get this song out in the US. "

Goodvin says a lot of people who go to his shows in America already know Lonely Drum and he loves that a song that only took him 45 minutes to write has turned into such a popular song. 

He had just written another song with two co-writers and one of them was talking about the song Try and Forget You and said "I just love that song because it beats on my lonely drum and I was like, what did you say? and she said it beats on that lonely drum and I was like, I want to write that." 

Goodvin has been living down in the USA for a decade now and lives just outside Nashville with his wife. 

He will be coming back to Alberta this summer when he performs at Country Thunder Alberta in Calgary in August. 

When asked if he could pop by 91.5 CochraneNow he says he would love to!

"The only thing that I can relate myself to Cochrane was the first girl that I ever dated moved from Spirit River (AB) to Cochrane. We dated in Grade six, and that's my tie to Cochrane was that she and her family up and moved to Cochrane and broke my heart."
