Brantley Gilbert Pays Tribute to ’13 Brave American Heroes’ by Releasing a New Song

Country music star, Brantley Gilbert released a new song over the weekend titled “Gone But Not Forgotten” in honor of the 13 United States service men and women who were killed in a bombing in Kabul, Afghanistan last week.

Gilbert posted on social media last weekend that he wrote the song “a while back” and decided to share it “in hopes it might resonate with someone who needs to hear it right now.”

13 brave American heroes made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom this week. In hard times like this, I always find myself turning to music. I wrote this song a while back as a tribute to all of the folks we’ve lost, both overseas and in our own communities here at home. Wanted to share it with y’all in hopes it might resonate with someone who needs to hear it right now.
