Fresh batch of country tunes sweeter than a spring nectarine | Music City Minute

Spring is an enchanting time, and honestly, a second chance at a new beginning. Now, technically, the spring equinox does not occur until Friday, March 20, but it is never too early for “Blue Skies” and “Starting Over.” In fact, you can begin stirring up those good vibes with the playlist of brand new music from our favorite country artist. Fresh off the acetate press, Luke Combs dropped a new single called “I Ain’t No Cowboy.” Tucker Wetmore sings about summer love in “Sunburn.” Flatland Calvary‘s latest single is called “Real Slow,” while Lainey Wilson dropped an autobiographical song called “Can’t Sit Still.” Carly Pearce and Riley Green put out a very steamy collaboration titled “If I Don’t Leave, I’m Gonna Stay.” Kane Brown gushes about his “Woman,” as Miss Kacey Musgraves endures “A Dry Spell.” Bailey Zimmerman and Brandon Lake teamed up for “Just Believe,” and Noah Kahan released a single called, “Porch Light.” Charley Crockett fans rejoice his newly released single “Fastest Gun Alive,” and the über adorable Chase Matthew just dropped “Bet This Town.” Hot dang, that is almost an hour of fresh tunes sweeter than a spring nectarine.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
