The TV-Radio Broadcaster, WVSZ, has now officially confirmed their announcement of their second artist. Making it the thirty-fifth official
SaS #2-representant!The submission has been brought out by the internal tastes from the TV/Radio Broadcaster's HoD and the
SaS-creator! 
So we made it for the next
Carolina-state. And this had a very poor result after its debut, when last edition's South Carolina-entrant Ckay1 with the song "Moment of Clarity" offered the state its first last place on the Heat, even when counting all the other Heats in total, the entry would've been the 50th place after it only receiving 13 points overall!For this edition, the state has taught its lesson and to come with a superior country musician whose co-writtings has been associated with Garth Brooks, Tim McGraw and Adam Gregory.
Four singles, out of the artist's breakthrough with the recording accompanying Curb Records' Asylum-Curb-division, have all been charted on the Billboard Hot Country Songs-charts. In additional, the artist has received 3 winnings from talent contests back in the high school-times.
We're talking about a guy named
Lee BriceThe artist had had football-interest and played special teams as the long snapper, but after an arm injury, the artist decided to focus on a country music career instead. And ever since many witnesses of winning talent contests, charting Billboard tops, accompanying with other professional songwriters, it was something to decide which what have him interested and missed for quite some time. And it was to be an entrant for a song contest.
As the country-based station WVSZ will held this for the state,
Lee submitted himself for the chance to see a South Carolinian grand finalist. He'll be born ready to serve which one of his charting singles will be the representing entry for the state!

★ Lyrics ★
Eighty-Nine Cents in the ash tray
Half empty bottle of Gatorade rolling in the floorboard
That dirty Braves cap on the dash
Dog tags hangin’ from the rear view
Old Skoal can, and cowboy boots and a Go Army Shirt folded in the back
This thing burns gas like crazy, but that’s alright
People got their ways of coping
Oh, and I’ve got mine
I drive your truck
I roll every window down
And I burn up
Every back road in this town
I find a field, I tear it up
Till all the pain’s a cloud of dust
Yeah, sometimes I drive your truck
I leave that radio playing
That same ole country station where ya left it
Yeah, man I crank it up
And you’d probably punch my arm right now
If you saw this tear rollin’ down on my face
Hey, man I’m tryin’ to be tough
And momma asked me this morning
If I’d been by your grave
But that flag and stone ain’t where I feel you anyway
I drive your truck
I roll every window down
And I burn up
Every back road in this town
I find a field, I tear it up
Till all the pain’s a cloud of dust
Yeah, sometimes I drive your truck
I’ve cussed, I’ve prayed, I’ve said goodbye
Shook my fist and asked God why
These days when I’m missing you this much
I drive your truck
I roll every window down
And I burn up
Every back road in this town
I find a field, I tear it up
Til all the pain’s a cloud of dust
Yeah, sometimes, brother sometimes
I drive your truck
I drive your truck
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
I drive your truck
South Carolina.
SOUTH CAROLINA IS:
LEE BRICE
