TEXAS GOSPEL CANADA VOLUNTEER
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Daryl Mosley has built a career on songs that feel like they were pulled straight from a small-town front porch, and his newest single continues that tradition, especially those walking their own road to recovery. “I Won’t Drink To That,” out now on all digital and streaming platforms, tells the story of a man who found something worth more than the bottle: a relationship with God that gave him the strength to walk away from addiction for good.
The song arrives as the third release from Mosley’s upcoming album, Little Moments, due out September 18. It follows “She Knew It All” and “One Screen Movie House,” two tracks that already showcased the songwriter’s gift for turning ordinary life into something worth singing about.
Written solely by Mosley, “I Won’t Drink To That” is delivered in his signature laid-back baritone, a voice that has carried more than twenty #1 hits over a career spanning three decades. What sets this song apart is its honesty. Rather than shying away from the struggle of addiction, Mosley leans into it, framing sobriety not as a burden but as a gift, one made possible through faith. For listeners who have walked away from their own battles with the bottle, or who are praying for someone still in the fight, the song offers both comfort and testimony.
The recording features Mosley on lead vocals and bass, joined by a lineup of respected Bluegrass musicians: Danny Roberts on mandolin, Jaelee Roberts on harmony vocals, Jamie Harper on fiddle, Tony Wray on guitar, and Justin Moses on dobro. That instrumentation gives the song a warmth and rootedness that fits its message, faith and healing set against the familiar sounds of home.
Mosley, a native of Waverly, Tennessee, has spent his career writing about small-town life, family, and faith. A four-time Songwriter of the Year, he has performed with groups including New Tradition, The Osborne Brothers, and The Farm Hands. Little Moments, a ten-track collection written or co-written entirely by Mosley (the title track alongside Rick Lang), continues that legacy, pairing modern Bluegrass instrumentation with lyrics that speak plainly to the everyday moments of grace that shape a life.
“I Won’t Drink To That” is streaming now, and Little Moments can be pre-ordered ahead of its September 18 release.
