The new track portends Tucker’s forthcoming new album, Sweet Western Sound, which is produced by the Grammy Award-winning artist Brandi Carlile and Shooter Jennings and is set to drop on June 2.
But for Tucker fans, there is more good news: the country star is headed out on tour later this month, with her first date slated for May 12 in Biloxi, Mississippi. Check out the full list of dates below.
“I was in LA, the night before the first session started. Brandi sent me a song, saying ‘If you like it, we’ll start with it,’ the two-time Grammy Award-winning Tucker says of her new song. “I gave it to Craig [Dillingham, Tanya’s boyfriend] to listen to. He comes back in a minute, and I asked him, ‘Did you like it?’ and he says, ‘Like it? Hell, I wrote it!’ He’d never pitched it to me, but Brandi did. It’s one of those songs that just stays with you.”
The new track is the second single from the Seminole, Texas-born Tucker’s forthcoming new album. She released “Kindness” in late April. For more on that song, read HERE. It was also announced that Tucker will be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame later this year.
