"All Alright" is a song recorded by the American country music group Zac Brown Band. It was released on April 28, 2014, and is the first single from the band's second extended play, The Grohl Sessions, Vol. 1.
The song is about a man who feels conflict over a relationship,[4] saying that it was "all alright, now it's all wrong." Band members Zac Brown, Jimmy De Martin, and John Driskell Hopkins wrote the song with Wyatt Durrette, who had written several other songs for the Zac Brown Band, and Eric Church. A. J. Ghent plays an electric guitar solo.[5]
Commercial reception
Up to July 30, 2014, the song had sold 58,000 copies.[6]
Critical reception
Alanna Conaway of Roughstock gave the single a positive review, stating that it is likely to add another huge hit to the band's ten number one hits and that it was one of the best singles of 2014.[7] Jon Freeman of Country Weekly rated it "B+", praising the Southern rock influences of the production and the "impressionistic metaphors" of the lyric, but adding, "It also comes with a challenging, rangy melody that exposes some of the typically solid Zac's weaknesses as a vocalist. But the band's musicianship is as impressive as ever."[4]
