Sam Hunt helps save turtles

 

In Sam Hunt’s new music video for “Water Under The Bridge” he sports a “Save The Ridley” Tee. The T-Shirt has generated a surge in phone calls to the Sea Turtle rescue and rehab facility, Sea Turtle, Inc. in south Texas.

The calls have prompted Sea Turtle Inc. to run a limited production of the T-Shirt with proceeds going towards their mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and release injured Sea Turtles. The foundation helps educate the public and assist in conservation efforts. Order your T-Shirt here:

 

Sam Hunt’s “Water Under The Bridge” follows Sam’s smash hit “23” which notched his ninth no. 1 record on Billboard’s Country Airplay Chart. It was written by Sam Hunt with Chris LaCorte, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne. The song relives Sam’s memories growing up Cedartown, Georgia where they used to hang out on an old backroad near the river. Sam said, “Folks have been gathering up there long before we came along,” he says, “and I’m sure still gathering up there now.”

8 Sam Hunt Songs That Make Us Swoon

  Hunt said of writing the song's content, "In the 90s, there was no Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or more, so break ups in the 90's were not easier. The trick was not filling it up with a bunch of technology references and trying to find the story within it. It's just the world's so much smaller now."
