Big Machine Records recording artist Danielle Bradbery will provide a fitting kickoff to NTT Indycar Series new race on the streets of downtown Nashville, riding in the Ruoff Fastest Seat in Sports at this weekend’s Big Machine Music City Grand Prix. The Voice season 4 winner, whose latest single “Stop Draggin’ Your Boots” was released just last week, will be driven by legendary racing icon Mario Andretti.

“I’ve been extremely fortunate to do some amazing things in my career but never, in my wildest dreams, would I have ever thought I’d be able to ride with the legend, Mario Andretti,” Danielle said in a statement. “On Sunday, that dream comes true!”

With “Stop Draggin’ Your Boots,” the country singer shows a side of herself fans have never seen before in a fiery coming-of-age declaration. She takes the put-up-or-shut-up honky tonk shuffle one step further with a  video embodying the song’s feisty message.

Danielle’s ‘s sophomore album, I Don’t Believe We’ve Met, found her penning seven of the album’s 10 tracks, including “Worth It,” “Potential” and gold-certified “Sway.” Last year, she released “Never Have I Ever” and “Girls In My Hometown.” The singer deepened her connection with her Mexican heritage by enlisting Latin Grammy-nominated artist KURT for a Spanish version of? “Never Have I Ever” (“Yo Nunca He…”), singing entirely in Spanish for the first time.

The Ruoff Fastest Seat in Sports helps lead the stars of the NTT Indycar Series to the green flag across the race season. Often driven by Andretti,  the Ruoff Fastest Seat in Sports features a celebrity or social media influencer in the passenger seat,

“Danielle is going to have an epic adventure on Race Day experiencing the speeds and G-forces of a real IndyCar Series car,” Andretti said. “I’m looking forward to the very first Music City Grand Prix on the streets of Nashville. The drivers and fans are clearly very excited for this new event, which will bring the world-class racing of the NTT Indycar Series to a marquee city that celebrates top entertainment.”
