Lauren Watkins, the talented country artist hailing from Nashville, released two songs today from her upcoming project Introducing: The Heartbreak.
‘The Table’ shows off Lauren’s great story-telling ability and powerful vocals. It conveys a story of a romantic encounter with both intimate and emotional elements, unspoken connections, and the complexities of relationships, highlighting the decisions and consequences that come with it. The table serves as a literal and metaphorical stage for these moments and choices in the song.
‘Fine County Line’ is an uptempo song in which Lauren displays strong vocal ability along with great songwriting. The “county line” serves as a metaphor for the boundary between their desire and taking action. The song explores the tension and excitement of a budding romantic connection, where both individuals are aware of their mutual attraction but are hesitating to make the first move.
Take a listen to both these songs and check out Lauren Watkins on her current tour, performing with Austin Snell, Conner Smith, and Morgan Wallen. Check out her site here at laurenwatkinsmusic.com.
Drenched in authenticity and rife with barstool charm with an addictive, Tennessee limestone gravel in her voice, Nashville-born and bred songbird Lauren Watkins writes, breathes, and lives country music. The 23-year-old original grew up on the outskirts of Guitar Town, mesmerized by a jukebox rotation of country music, from outlaws like Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow to chart-toppers Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, and Chris Stapleton. Moving back after four years at Ole Miss, Watkins’ unyielding, turn on a dime lyricism quickly caught the attention of GRAMMY-nominated multi-hyphenate Nicolle Galyon, who signed her to publishing and recording contracts with Songs & Daughters / Big Loud Records almost instantly. Honing in on a sound that’s both reverent of the genre’s roots and in lockstep with where it’s headed next, she’s introducing her take on country music now with seven-song teaser set, Introducing: Lauren Watkins. Catch her touring the new music on the road all summer long at notable fairs and festivals including Carolina Country Fest, Biloxi Crawfish Boil, Nashville’s CMA Fest, Faster Horses, Watershed Festival, TidalWave Music Festival, and more.
