Background[edit]

"Right Round Here" was written by Brody's labelmates the Reklaws and Callum Maudsley.[3] Brody remarked that he felt a connection to the lyrics upon hearing the song, stating "I recognize how lucky I was to be raised with these values and know I wouldn’t be where I am today without them".[2]

Critical reception[edit]

Logan Miller of Front Porch Music positively spoke of the song, stating it "is not just another country song; it’s an anthem that pays tribute to the vast, beautiful land we call Canada". He added that Brody's "personal connection to the lyrics shines through as he reflects on his small-town roots and the values instilled in him by his tight-knit community".[2]

Live performance[edit]

On September 16, 2023, Brody performed "Right Round Here" at the 2023 Canadian Country Music Awards in Hamilton, Ontario.[4] His performance opened with the playing of his track "Intro (Northern Anthem)", before Brody and his band began performing "Right Round Here".
