It's another stacked week of releases in the country music world - and there's something for everyone. There are trap-infused anthems from the likes of Graham Barham and Redferrin, there are neo-traditional earworms from Midland and Willow Avalon, and even some more folk-leaning odes from Max McNown and Solon Holt.
Alongside these, there are also new heaters Charles Wesley Godwin, Wyatt Flores, Niko Moon, Koe Wetzel, Keith Urban, John Mayer, Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert and many more.
Listen along and discover your next obsession below.
Listen along to our New Country Songs playlist on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and Amazon.
New Country Songs
A reimagined version of the band's 2023 single, the new recording of Midland's ‘Up in Texas’ features a high-profile set of vocals from Clint Black. Black's sound was heavily influenced by his Lone Star surroundings growing up, making the ‘Killin’ Time’ crooner feel like the perfect addition to this traditional-leaning track.
It finds Mark Wystrach once again showcasing his sinuous vocals, with ‘Up in Texas’ capturing the unashamedly old-school ambience that pervades the band's new album, Stages.
Watch the Official Lyric Video for 'Up in Texas' below:
Best New Country Song of the Week
Our Best New Country Song of the Week is Ian Munsick's ‘World War III’. An ominous, steel-soaked ode, it finds the Wyoming native showing off a darker side to his sound.
Across a brooding, eerie instrumental, Munsick's spellbinding falsetto drifts into the abyss as he sends a warning shot to anyone looking to cause his family trouble (“I ain't lookin' for trouble / But if it finds me / You can bet your ass that it's gonna be / World War III”). It's a far cry from the serenity and peace of White Buffalo, but a sign of Munsick's continued evolution ahead of his new album, The Mountain Goat.
