Background

"The Good, the Bad and the Pretty" was the first song Hicks had released in eight months.[4] He remarked that the song is "about that one bar in every town, that welcomes all sorts of characters on any given night", adding "it represents a lot of the bars I played on a nightly basis for years". Hicks said he made many friends in those bars, calling them "the best people" and wanted to "pay tribute to them" with this song.[5]

Critical reception

Matthew Weaver of Country104 said the song was released "just in time for spring, sunshine and the outdoors".[6]
