Apple Music is launching the second season of its Lost & Found series, which makes previously unreleased tracks available to fans. The original demo tracks (“Lost”) are released first, followed by their newly recorded counterparts (“Found”).

Every month a new song will be released, starting with “End Of The Night,” written by Toby Keith, Bobby Pinson and David Lee Murphy. The demo is available now, and the new version was released today (Oct. 10), recorded by ERNEST.

“This was always one of my favorites, and it was ERNEST’s favorite too,” says Pinson. “He did a great job on it. When [Apple Music] asked me about this project and said ‘what do we have,’ it was like Christmas. It was like finding a dollar in your pocket.”

“The day we wrote it, we were laughing so hard, feeling like it was a hit,” adds Murphy.

“Hearing Toby on that demo specifically – and Bobby and David Lee Murphy are great songwriters – you hear a little bit of an older, weathered Toby Keith singing a song, just hanging out on the bus,” shares ERNEST. “It’s an honor and a duty as country singers to keep the spirit alive of those who went on before us. I think it is what makes country music great. We live in the greatest city for songwriting of all time, so there are an endless amount of songs. Every now and then, you get to pull a little diamond out of there and a little piece of history, and this is no exception. I’ll never be able to sing a Toby Keith song as good as Toby Keith can sing a Toby Keith song, but I’m gonna give it hell to sing it the best I can for sure.”
