David Nail’s new album, I’m a Fire, is available this week, and the Missouri native says his new project has been a labor of love and renewal, along with perfect timing.
“I think right now I’m just in a very pleasant place. I think for whatever reason in the past, I’ve always just kind of been either really down or really up and can never really find any consistency. I’m lucky that I have a lovely wife who is an amazing person who was patient with me through the journey of kind of trying to figure things out, and the record, I think, is a result of that. Everything was just perfect timing,” says David. “So everything just kind of meshed really well, and I think that being in this new place kind of allowed me to entertain recording songs and being drawn to songs that otherwise in the past I would have never entertained.”
David has started hitting the airwaves with his latest single, “Kiss You Tonight,” which is the follow-up to his No. 1 platinum-selling smash, “Whatever She’s Got.”
Make sure to catch David on NBC’s The Today Show and CBS’ Late Show With David Letterman on Wednesday (March 5th).

“I think right now I’m just in a very pleasant place. I think for whatever reason in the past, I’ve always just kind of been either really down or really up and can never really find any consistency. I’m lucky that I have a lovely wife who is an amazing person who was patient with me through the journey of kind of trying to figure things out, and the record, I think, is a result of that. Everything was just perfect timing. We had worked really hard last year and a few of my guys had their first child. And so I just felt like it was good for everybody to kind of take some time off and kind of learn how to be a husband again and it kind of coincided with, ‘Hey! You need to go make a record.’ So everything just kind of meshed really well, and I think that being in this new place kind of allowed me to entertain recording songs and being drawn to songs that otherwise in the past I would have never entertained.”
