"Get By" is the debut single by Canadian country music artist Tim Hicks, released in December 2012 from his 2013 debut album, Throw Down. Hicks co-wrote the song with Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line, Neil Sanderson of Three Days Grace, Casey Marshall and Shawn Hamm.[1] It peaked at number 57 on the Canadian Hot 100 in March 2013.
"Get By" was the number one selling country song in Canada for seventeen weeks.[2] Sales of the single surpassed 100,000 units in less than eight months.[3] It was certified gold by Music Canada in June 2013.
Henry Lees of Top Country called the song a "singable stomper," writing that "it’s as great an introductory calling card as they come and an ear worm of the most welcome kind."[4]
The music video premiered in March 2013. It was directed by Jason Lupish and filmed in Thorold, Ontario.[5]
"Get By" debuted at number 90 on the Canadian Hot 100 for the week of February 16, 2013.
