Hughes, who began touring Europe at 12 and moved to Levelland, Texas after high school to study bluegrass at South Plains College, says the song was inspired by a night in New England and an old 12-string guitar given to him by Rodney Crowell.
"'Back To You' was written while I was on the road in New England during a night off in a cheap hotel," Hughes tells Wide Open Country. "I had received an old 12-string guitar as a gift and 'Back To You' was the first song inspired by that old guitar. I wrote this song as a love letter home to my family."
The singer previously co-wrote Josh Gracin's "Stay with Me (Brass Bed)" and performed with Patty Loveless on "That's All It Took" from Loveless' 2008 album Sleepless Nights.
West features songs co-written with Crowell, Parker Milsap, Sarah Buxton and the late Guy Clark.
