Tim McGraw surprised his label, industry guests and some very lucky fans Thursday night (Oct. 4) with a secret club show at Nashville’s The End. Guests were packed wall to wall and lined down the block trying to get in when Tim took the stage to play a set list of his biggest hits along with two just released songs, “Neon Church” and “Thought About You.”

Both tracks are available to stream and download now via Columbia Nashville/McGraw Music. McGraw has indicated both songs are part of an upcoming 2019 album project.
