“Go Cry Somewhere Else” Premiered by WSM’s ‘On Air With Eryn Cooper’ & Coda Country
“The only thing more electric than hearing Grayson’s “Go Cry Somewhere Else” through your speakers would be hearing him perform it live. Grayson is an intentional and deeply compelling storyteller in numerous ways, and the raw emotion displayed in this track only scratches the surface of his abilities.” – Eryn Cooper / On Air With Eryn Cooper / WSM Radio
“Grayson Russell’s powerful new song “Go Cry Somewhere Else” demonstrates the perfect amount of saucy dismissiveness with a singable melody that is sure to catch the ear of anyone who’s been through an unwanted heartbreak.” – Leigh Powell / Coda Country
“The song ‘Go Cry Somewhere Else’ is spitfire, unapologetic and relatable, and it has a neo-outlaw vibe to it, which is missing on the radio airwaves these days, and Grayson Russell is here to bring it back!” – Markos Papadatos / Digital Journal
“Grayson Russell has given us some country and Rock n’ Roll…rolled up in his awesome new song, ‘Go Cry Somewhere Else’ with memorable lyrics, get up and dance guitar riffs too! Also, for some of us, a break-up anthem!” – Judy Shields / The Hollywood Times
“Grayson Russell has a unique way of combining a lot of sounds and influences into one cohesive song. He’s done it well with “Go Cry Somewhere Else,” a rowdy anthem for those who love the traditional sounds of country music, as well as those who lean towards the newer, more modern sound. Turn this one up — it’s a good one.” – Gayle Thompson / Everything Nash
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Singer-songwriter and ‘Talladega Nights’ and ‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ actor Grayson Russell releases his latest single, “Go Cry Somewhere Else” today! Premiered by WSM’s On Air With Eryn Cooper and Coda Country, the song delivers a witty and lighthearted take on breaking up, blending sharp lyrics with an upbeat melody that turns heartache into a source of empowerment via banjos and the National Anthem. With a mix of country charm and playful sarcasm, Russell crafts a breakup anthem that encourages letting go with a smile and a little “poetic justice.” The track showcases his ability to transform personal experiences into relatable, feel-good music, proving that sometimes the best way to heal is to drink with your buddies and laugh it off.
Well, we’ve cried our eyes out, but the truth is it ain’t the first time
Cause if you wouldn’t go and sleep with your friends
I wouldn’t need to go drinking with mine
(So) Go cry somewhere else
I had the opportunity to speak with Grayson about this new song, his career at a musician, songwriter and actor and how he loves it all! He is also in a TV show called Blue Ridge: The Series.

“For anyone who’s ever cheated on you and then cried about it, this song is for you,” shares Grayson. “We’ve all experienced a breakup, but when they come back crying, tell em’ they can “Go Cry Somewhere Else.” You’ll thank me later. Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody!”

Grayson Russell’s previous release “Beneath The Bow” honors the American worker, drawing a poignant comparison to the unseen laborers in the Titanic’s engine room. With raw, reflective lyrics, the song tells the story of those who tirelessly warn of impending danger, only to be ignored by the carefree partygoers above. This powerful track pays tribute to both the men of the Titanic and today’s unsung workers who keep our country moving forward. Following this release, Russell’s “Beneath The Bow” was premiered by RFD-TV.
