Independent country artist Mitchell Broodley is out with the release of his new single, Overtime Again. Drawing on lived experience and heartfelt storytelling, the track captures the emotional highs and longing of a long-distance relationship, using football imagery as a poignant lens rather than a gimmick.
“Overtime Again” centers on those moments in love you wish could last forever — watching the clock, savoring borrowed time, and hoping for just a little more. Broodley transforms familiar feelings of distance, anticipation, and connection into a modern country anthem, blending intimate lyricism with melodic hooks.
Raised in South Carolina and now based in Vermont, Broodley stepped away from an early Nashville record opportunity to pursue a life outside music — becoming a lawyer, contributing to a community hospital, and starting a family — before returning to songwriting with renewed perspective. During the pandemic, he rediscovered his voice in a small basement studio, writing and self-producing songs that reflect honesty, authenticity, and the weight of real life.
Broodley’s approach to music prioritizes lived experience over hype. His previous holiday single achieved unexpected success, peaking #1 on two Amazon Music holiday category charts and reaching #6 overall on Amazon’s Holiday Best Sellers chart, signaling his ability to connect deeply with listeners.
“Overtime Again” is part of Broodley’s thoughtful return to music, offering stories shaped by love, ambition, and life’s quiet moments. With this release, he continues to craft country songs that feel lived-in, heartfelt, and timeless.
