Burning Man

Burning Man is an event held each year in the Black Rock Desert of northwest Nevada, which focuses on art and self-expression. This song tips its hat to the annual festival. I'm a little bit steady but still little bit rollin' stone I'm a little bit heaven but still a little bit flesh-and-bone Little found, little don't-know-where-I-am I'm a little bit holy water but still a little bit burning man Burning man While Bentley salutes the anything-goes Burning Man vibe, he acknowledges the need for balance. "I felt an immediate connection to the lyrics," he told People magazine. "The idea that we all are a little bit of everything… a little bit holy water and a little bit burning man… really resonated with me."

The song features Dierks Bentley's Mountain High Tour colleagues Brothers Osborne. "I'm a huge fan of those guys. They're friends. We play in a side band together, a '90s country cover band called the Hot Country Knights with a K for anyone who wants to look us up," said Bentley. "So, we're just pals, and it's like this song feels like something that they would sing, you know? It feels like if they'd got this one before I did, they probably would've cut it." He added: "It was so easy. I just called 'em up and sent the song and got a huge 'Yes' back from both of them right away. They came into the studio like two days later. It was just a great hang."

Dirks Bentley debuted the track during a live concert in Las Vegas at the end of 2017.
