The Best Sad Girl Country Songs

Country music has always had time for the more melancholic things in life - like break ups, heartbreak, estranged relationships, longing and loneliness – but it’s also a voice of courage, vulnerability and tenacity. So, it’s no surprise that it has its own special place within the sad girl oeuvre.

Alongside all the coming-of-age films and angsty teenage poetry, sad, depressing music is one of a sad girl’s favourite things to get moony over. Whether it’s Megan Moroney, Kacey Musgraves or even the Queen of Sad Girl Lana Del Re, there’s nothing quite like sitting and listening to the same songs over and over again and imagining they were written just for you.

So, whenever you're in need of a good cry, throw on our Holler playlist of The Best Sad Girl Country songs. Follow for a wallow. It’s a sad girl winter, spring, summer and fall and every sad girl needs a good playlist and a tub of ice cream when life gets too much.
