Today (6.19), Big Machine Racing Productions releases “Runnin’ Down A Dream,” performed by GRAMMY-winning duo Brothers Osborne, ahead of the Bobby Rahal: True American Racer (Inspired By) Soundtrack (8.21), which accompanies the Bobby Rahal: True American Racer documentary (available now on Tubi TV). More than three decades after its original release, the iconic Tom Petty anthem roars back to life as a fitting companion to Rahal’s story of grit, determination and chasing the impossible. Led by TJ Osborne’s rich baritone and a blistering guitar solo from John Osborne, the song is transformed into a full-throttle anthem worthy of one of racing’s most legendary careers.

Multi-award winners John and TJ Osborne are leaders of a progressive yet deeply rooted school of country music and widely regarded as faces of the new generation of Nashville. 

The siblings earned their first GRAMMY Award in 2022, winning Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “Younger Me,” inspired by TJ Osborne’s coming out. The song appears on the deluxe edition of their GRAMMY-nominated album Skeletons. To date, Brothers Osborne have received 13 GRAMMY nominations, most recently in 2025 for Best Country Duo/Group Performance and are six-time CMA Vocal Duo of the Year winners and four-time ACM Duo of the Year winners.

Their critically acclaimed catalog has earned multiple RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications, amassing more than 3.4 billion global streams. Previously sharing the stage with artists including Chris Stapleton, Eric Church, Little Big Town, and Miranda Lambert, Brothers Osborne’s most recent headlining We’re Not For Everyone Tour played more than 50 markets.

Beyond the duo, John Osborne has expanded his role as a producer, including Ashley McBryde Presents: Lindeville, as well as recent projects for Grace Bowers and Caylee Hammack. Brothers Osborne released their self-titled fourth studio album in September 2023 via EMI Records Nashville, featuring the single “Nobody’s Nobody.” In 2024, they followed with the four-track Break Mine EP, and their latest release, “Finish This Drink,” arrived April 4, 2025.
