Travis Tritt Tributes Country Music Legends in ‘They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That No More’ Video

On Sunday (January 2nd), singer Travis Tritt took to his social media channel to share the music video for his song They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That No More. The single’s video features several country music legends including Dolly Parton and Waylon Jennings.

According to Travis Tritt, They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That No More is a throwback to all the country greats who trail-blazed the industry and paved the way for others to follow. The song’s chorus reads, “There’s just some things that stand the test of time. Like an old jukebox and some honky-tonk wine. Newer ain’t better buddy, that’s for sure. Son, they don’t make ’em like that no more, oh.”

 As previously reported, Travis Tritt spoke about enlisting singer-songwriter Dillon Carmichael to help write the single this past summer. Tritt also said, “I think the thing that really kind of drove that idea was really kind of a Marty Stuart feel. There was a certain Marty Stuart driving feel to that particular song. That’s one of the things I’ve always loved about Marty and Marty’s music.”

Tritt then explained that the song’s concept was pretty simple. “We talked about, once again, the things that they used to make that would last. The things that they used to sing about and talk about that are still some of the greatest recordings that I’ve ever heard and the greatest experiences that I’ve ever had. So, that’s where that idea came from.”

They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That No More is one of the songs on Travis Tritt’s album Set in Stone. The album, which debuted this past summer, is the first album from Tritt in more than a decade. 

Travis Tritt Shares More Details About the Development of His ‘Set in Stone’ Album 

During a recent interview with Wide Open Country, Travis Tritt spoke about his album Set in Stone. He revealed that Dave Cobb and The Oak Ridge Boys helped produce the album. “My manager actually brought up the idea of working with Dave,” Tritt explained. “And I’m a big fan of his records anyway and the way that his records sound.”

Travis Tritt also said that he and Cobb actually talked about doing a studio album together. “Obviously being away from the studio for 12-13 years, I was a little bit apprehensive about going in and working on a new album. Because I know a lot of things have changed in that time.”

He then discussed working with Dave’s cousin, Brent Cobb. “We just hit off right off the bat. He started telling and a lot of other writers I wrote with on this particular album told me the same thing… They were telling me how much my music had influenced them and meant to them when they were growing up as kids.”
