Beat of the Music was released in September 2013 as the
third single from Brett Eldredge's debut album, Bring You Back.
Eldredge co-wrote the song with Ross Copperman and Heather Morgan.
The song was inspired by a time he spent in the Bahamas with his brother. The brothers borrowed a
small boat to go island hopping and feed swimming pigs when they came upon a beautiful girl
floating on a raft in the back of a yacht.
Eldredge recalled:
"We're going to these pigs and we've got this
bucket of slop and we're so excited and then we see this beautiful girl floating on a raft,
heaven's light is shining on her. There's no one around that
area and we're like, 'We've got to go see what's going on.' We drive our little dinghy boat up
closer and closer to see this girl and she's right up there behind this giant yacht. Two scary
guys pop up out of the giant yacht and we're like, 'OK, we better take this dinghy boat and go
feed these pigs.'"
"I told my brother, if I were to have ever met that girl, I would have liked to write a
song about how we met and falling in love to the beat of the music came up about that.
I wrote that song with a couple buddies of mine when I got back to Nashville."
