"Pray for You" is a song recorded by American country music duo The Swon Brothers for their self-titled debut album (2014). The song was written by Jessi Alexander, Tommy Lee James, and Eric Paslay, and was produced by Mark Bright and The Swon Brothers. It was first released to digital retailers September 23, 2014 as the first promotional single off the album, and was subsequently serviced to American country radio on November 3, 2014 as the album's second official single.[1][2]

Critical reception

Carrie Horton at Taste of Country praised the song for being a "solid, if not ground-breaking" follow-up to "Later On". In particular, Horton complimented the balancing of the lyrics' mature message with the more upbeat production, writing: "The drums are heavy, the guitars are swaggering and the vocal performances from Zach and Colton Swon are layered and just edgy enough to add complexity and a bit of good fun to a somewhat serious song."[3]

Music video

The music video was directed by David Poag and premiered in February 2015.[4]
