Canadian Country Singer Brittany Brodie Gives It Her All With “Like A Woman Should”

When you finish your workday, you want to leave the stresses, strains and struggles of the job at the door and feel comfort, companionship and love from your better half at home. Canadian country singer Brittany Brodie is bringing those feelings to the surface with her latest stellar single “Like A Woman Should”.

Brodie, who grew up in Mount Forest, Ontario but now calls Nashville home, wrote the song at the Nashville Songwriters Association International with help from co-writers and friends Natalie Otto and Charles Austin. “We wanted to write something very down-to-earth, real and romantic about loving your man when you get in from a long day or a long week and just want to show him appreciation when you reconnect after being so busy,” she says. “Making time for each other.”

The song’s surefire arrangement gives way to Brodie’s sweet delivery with a style that would make stalwarts like Shania Twain, The Chicks or Carrie Underwood jealous. Free of any slick production qualities or gadgetry, “Like A Woman Should” is a sensual, earthy, Americana-flavored track that would sound strong on the Opry stage or sitting around a campfire. The lyrics showcase how Brodie would want to treat her better half when the rigors of the proverbial rat race are done.

Give it your all, puttin’ in the time

I’m countin’ down the seconds

Since our last goodbye

Til you’re home again

Oh til you’re home again

“Some people have said it’s the country version of Marvin Gaye’s ‘Let’s Get It On,’ which I think is perfect,” Brodie says of her 26th single release. “It feels so good to write about what comes easy, which is real life that everyone can relate to.”

Listening to country legends like Vern Gosdin, Johnny Horton, George Strait and Dottie West growing up, Brodie also was influenced by Trisha Yearwood, Martina McBride and Faith Hill. It’s those talented touchstones Brodie has used in honing her own material while performing nationally and internationally, including an appearance at Scotland’s Belladrum Festival in July, 2022. She also regularly performs the national anthem prior to Nashville Sounds Triple A baseball home games.

When not on the road, she can also be found performing in and around Nashville. Such gigs include playing as part of Rebel Rouser Rounds at The Stillery and a Nashville Songwriter’s Showcase at The Commodore Grille. In June, 2024, she also made her maiden appearance at the Smash Farm at Live Oak in Nashville. Such shows in the country music hub also resulted in her sharing the stage and performing with country icon Vince Gill.

The future looks wide open for Brittany Brodie thanks to “Like A Woman Should,” a single that speaks to a universal desire after punching the time clock. “I love a true story, and you can feel that in this song.”
