Paul McDonald Releases New Song "Unwind"

Nashville singer-songwriter Paul McDonald is getting ready to release his first new album in eight years, So Long To The Dark Side, which is due out on July 18th, 2025. Ahead of its release, McDonald has shared the album’s third single, entitled “Unwind”. In a press release announcing the song release, McDonald stated the following:

“This song emerged spontaneously during a late-night jam session with my old bandmate from The Grand Magnolias, Jonathan Pears,” says McDonald. “We hadn’t written together in over a decade, but that night, we picked up our guitars and somehow the magic fell out of the sky. We finished up the song a few days later with our buddy Hailey Steele. The song is a simple feel-good track kind of born from a moment of nostalgia, but reflects on the free-spirited journey of my college band days. It eventually evolves into a reminder to slow down, let go, and be present.”
