Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney of Dan + Shay are shooting their way up the charts with their new single, “Tequila,” which is currently No. 14 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart after 16 weeks.
The reflective ballad, which was co-penned by Dan, Jordan Reynolds and Nicolle Galyon, is the duo’s first offering from their unannounced third studio album.
As Dan + Shay tease another announcement via Twitter—much like they did with the release of “Tequila”—Dan told Kix Brooks of American Country Countdown that he and his co-writers gave “Tequila” an intentional twist.
“One of our co-writers, Jordan Reynolds, was like, ‘We should write a song called “Tequila,”’ and he knew we drank tequila—that’s our drink of choice,” says Dan. “Obviously, our minds went to like, ‘We should write a party, feel-good, let’s-drink-tequila-and-get-crazy song,’ but in typical Nashville songwriter fashion, we spun it, and we kind of let that digest with the fans for a minute. They were all expecting this crazy thing and then we teased that haunting piano intro, and I think people were like, ‘I don’t know what’s happening here.’ I think it gave people a reason to check out the song and then when they heard the song—front to back –they realized, in typical Dan + Shay fashion, the story and nostalgia and kind of a heartbreak thing, relationship-sort-of situation. I think it’s a cool juxtaposition between the title and the actual content of the song.”
Based on his pre-draft comments, NFL draft analyst Mike Detillier of South Louisiana was surprised by one thing regarding Vols in the draft.
Detillier thought defensive back Rashaan Gaulden and running back John Kelly would be drafted close together.
They weren’t.
Gaulden was a third-round pick by Carolina, the 85th pick of the draft. Kelly went in the sixth round to the Rams, the 176th selection.
Detillier thought they would go late third or early fourth round. He was right about Gaulden.
“There is a little bit of a different of opinion on where he will play,’’ Detillier said. “I think really when you cut it down, that nickel position is something he excelled at and that is where I would put him right off the bat, that third cornerback.’’
Detillier thinks Gaulden is versatile enough to guard the smaller or taller receivers.
“His ball skills,’’ Detillier said, when asked what he likes about Gaulden. “He plays the ball really well in flight. He is a guy that has good one-on-one cover skills and you need some quickness to play that slot position. And he has the ability to plant and drive to the football.’’
Carolina said it plans to play Gaulden at safety.
Kelly, who rushed for 778 yards and was much more effective during the first half of last season, cried when called by the Rams and informed he’d been drafted.
“John is a guy that when he got his opportunity, he made the most of it,’’ Detillier said. “He’s got some quickness to hit the edge but he has also shown he can run pretty well between the tackles. His biggest improvement is his ability to catch the football coming out of the backfield.’’
Kelly tied for the team lead with 37 catches last season.
“He reminds me of Deion Lewis (formerly with the Patriots, now with the Titans). He is built the same way,’’ Detillier said. “A quick shifty back who is going to excel catching the ball in the flat.
“I really like him a lot. But in a pretty thick running back class, he got pushed back a little bit. I think he can be productive in the right system and the right scheme.’’
Kahlil McKenzie, a five-star recruit who had 35 tackles as a junior and never played to his potential, was drafted by Kansas City in the sixth round, the 198th pick.
“He has all the potential,’’ Detillier said. “I mean, he looks the part, but he’s never hit it as a player on the defensive side of the football and that’s why I think you have some teams that think he might be better on the offensive side.’’
In fact, the Chiefs plan to use McKenzie on the offensive line.
Although Trevor Daniel averaged 47.5 yards per punt (second in the nation), he wasn’t drafted. Yet, four punters – three from the SEC – were selected.
In most any other year, Daniel would have been drafted, Detillier believes.
Tight end Ethan Wolf signed a free agent contract with the Titans.
Detillier said Wolf is “a good sized kid’’ and is “solid across the board. I can’t give him an `A’ on anything but effort. But boy, he is a big man who knows how to get open and he is sure handed. And he is solid as an inline blocker.’’
Someone once said that rules were made to be broken.
The Arkansas women’s tennis team didn’t break a rule, but it violated the spirit of the rule. And the NCAA needs to put a clamp on the loophole.
Arkansas was 10-16 after reaching the semifinals of the SEC Tournament held in Knoxville last week. The talented team failed to have success during the regular season, and failed to meet NCAA criteria to qualify: a .500 record.
After playing well in the SEC Tournament, Arkansas coach Micael Hegarty had an idea: Try to find someone to play six matches, sweep those matches and get to .500.
Hegarty found a willing participant in Tennessee State, which had a sparkling 1-8 record in the Ohio Valley Conference. Arkansas played Tennessee State six times in Nashville the weekend of the SEC tournament, taking the first five matches 4-0 then pulling out a 4-3 squeaker in the final battle.
That made Arkansas 16-16 and eligible for one of the roughly 30 at-large bids to the 64-team NCAA tournament.
Arkansas paid Tennessee State $15,000 for the matches. TSU’s women’s tennis budget is $27,652. Arkansas’ women’s tennis budget is about $300,000.
A couple of articles indicated Hegarty didn’t get approval from Arkansas’ administration for the TSU matches.
If that’s true, how did he get approval to pay $15,000?
We asked Tennessee women’s tennis coach Alison Ojeda her thoughts on the Arkansas situation.
“He (Hegarty) has a fantastic team and they made a run (to the semis) of the SEC Tournament (in Knoxville),’’ Ojeda said. “I hate he had to get six matches in one day. That’s a lot on the players. But he wants to be in the (NCAA tournament). I respect that.’’
The Arkansas-TSU matches started at 8 a.m. and finished at about 10 p.m. – close to a 14-hour day. That’s a lot of hours used up with a 20-hour NCAA rule in place.
Some have questioned the lineup Arkansas used. Some have questioned TSU players retiring during a match.
Is it a bad precedent if the NCAA selection committee to pick Arkansas?
“Good question,’’ Ojeda said. “To be honest, I’m not sure how I’d answer that. Our job is to prepare our team on the front end, not the back end (of the schedule) and not put student-athletes in a situation to play six matches in one day. But (what Arkansas did) is within the rules.’’
Ojeda is on the ITA operating committee, which sets rules and policies.
“This is 100 percent something we’ll discuss and I guarantee, there will be a lot of conversation,’’ Ojeda said. “A lot of coaches do not want this going forward.’’
If the NCAA doesn’t step in, the SEC should.
The SEC says “it just means more.’’
It should also mean more to do things within the spirit of the rules.
In this case, Arkansas should not be rewarded for its “ingenuity’’ by the NCAA selection committee.
The NCAA will announce the field today at 5 p.m. Tennessee, which is ranked No. 38, is expected to get a two or three seed and play in the University of North Carolina regional.
Meanwhile, UT freshman Chelsea Sawyer of Clemmons, N.C., is transferring to Penn State in an effort to get playing time. UT has already given her a release.
That has left a spot open on the roster for the senior-less UT women’s team.
Jason Aldean is in familiar territory once again as “You Make It Easy,” the lead single from his eighth studio album, Rearview Town, ascended to the top spot on both the Billboard Country Airplay chart and Mediabase chart.
The bluesy ballad was co-penned by Morgan Wallen, Jordan Schmidt and Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard.
“It could’ve went to either one of those guys and them recorded it,” said Jason about the possibility of Morgan or FGL cutting the song. “And, you know, that’s just one of those things where it would’ve been a hit for either one of those guys, but, you know, somehow it ended up with us, so I’m very thankful for that.”
“You Make It Easy” is Jason’s 20th career No. 1 single.
“I think more than anything, you just don’t want to feel like you’re doing the same thing every time around,” said Jason. “For me, this is our eighth album, and it’s kind of hard to reinvent yourself with every record. To me, it’s finding songs that sort of allow me to do something a little different, step outside of maybe some of the other stuff that we’ve done. And I feel like I’m smart enough to know a hit when I hear it too, you know what I mean? And so, when I hear a song like ‘You Make It Easy,’ it allows me to be a little different. It’s still me, but it’s not something people have really heard a lot of from me.”
Tulsa-to-Nashville transport Justin Adams will drop his sophomore EP, Horizon, on May 11. The eight-song offering, which was produced by guitar virtuoso Derek Wells, features new single, “How It Rolls,” a tune co-penned by Eric Arjes and Old Dominion’s Brad Tursi.
Where did you get your love of music?
I’ve always loved music, and I love all different types of music. I grew up listening to whatever was playing on the radio in the car. I was raised in Oklahoma, and there was a lot of great country music, rock, blues and soul.
At what age did you realize you wanted to make music your career?
My uncle gave me a guitar when I was 12. I saw this old, beat-up, flat-top, six-string guitar just sitting in his garage with no case. It was just collecting dust. I was immediately drawn to it, so I asked if I could have it. I was hooked from the start. I wanted to be an entertainer.
Who are some of your musical influences?
I draw influences from so many different great artists and bands, including Brooks & Dunn, Vince Gill, George Strait, Tim McGraw, Garth Brooks, Dwight Yoakam, Don Williams, Aerosmith, Queen, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison, Otis Redding, Bob Seger, Joe Cocker, Journey and more.
What three words describe you as a musician?
Passionate. Energy. Entertainer.
What would you say is unique about your sound?
There’s a genuine authenticity to my sound. My songs are every part of who I am. I live and breathe what I write and record. The second I step on a stage, I pour out that emotion and energy.
When did you move to Nashville?
I moved to Nashville in July 2010. I thought I was a pretty good singer/songwriter until I went to my first show at the Bluebird Cafe. After that, I knew I had to get to work! Everybody in this town is so talented. I moved to Nashville because it’s the country music capital of the world, and if I wanted to do this for a living at the level I wanted, I had to make the move.
What does your new single,,”How It Rolls,” say about you as an artist?
There was a familiar nostalgia I felt when I first heard this song. My dear friend Eric Arjes—who is a co-writer with Brad Tursi on this song—played it for me one day at his home studio and it just hit me. I immediately dreamed of performing it live, and I was hooked after the very first chorus. As an artist, I love songs that have great lyrics and melody and feel, and this song has every single one of those in it. It reminds me of home.
You’ve had the opportunity to share the stage with everyone from Tracy Lawrence and Craig Morgan to Dan + Shay and Dustin Lynch. What did you learn from those artists that’s helping you today as you perform for country crowds?
I’ve been very fortunate to get to open for some amazing artists in incredible venues across the country. Each one of those artists is there for a reason. It’s no accident they sell out shows everywhere they go. I loved sitting side-stage during their sets and watching them do their thing as performers. I ran into Tracy Lawrence last week in Nashville. He told me that he’s about to do another long tour run—I love that. The guy’s been doing it for decades and still has the passion for the stage and burning down highway miles. That is so awesome and inspiring to me. I can only hope to have a career like that.
You’re releasing your sophomore EP, Horizon, on May 11. What can we expect from the new record?
It’s been a few years since I’ve released music, so I’m so excited to get this music out there. It’s high-energy, country-rocking tempo, but there’s also love and loss and hope and life in these songs. It’s windows down, backroads, nights with your girl, nights alone, summertime good feelings and everything in between. We worked so hard writing and listening to thousands of songs for this. I’m so proud of these songs, and producer Derek Wells did a phenomenal job shaping the sound of this project and making it unique to me and my sound as an artist. Horizon is who I am, and I cannot wait to get out and perform this for y’all on the road!
What family member or friend has been the most supportive of your musical career?
My family and friends are a blessing of a support system, but the biggest support is my wife.
Here’s a look at the team fits and roster situations of the three University of Tennessee drafted players and 11 undrafted free agents will enter into with their NFL teams in 2018 in my blog “Vince’s View.”
U. of Tennessee Draft Picks (3) S Rashaan Gaulden – Carolina Panthers (3rd Rd #85)
Gaulden went in the 3-5 round range I expected. He landed in a really nice spot. He’ll also be reunited with Brady Hoke who is on the Panthers coaching staff. Gaulden says he can play any position in the secondary and the team likes that about him. The team told him they want him at safety first and foremost. He said he’ll play it at a high level. Question is, will it be at strong safety where he’s more in the box closer to the Nickelback he played at UT or at free safety where there may be slightly less competition on the roster. Mike Adams was the starter there last year but is expected to start at free safety this season. Former Titan Da’Norris Searcy is likely the starting strong safety early in camp. Other reserve safeties currently are Demetrious Cox, Colin Jones, Damian Parms and Dezman Southward. Gaulden should slide in to the back-up role at SS. The Panthers didn’t draft or sign undrafted free agents at the safety position. He will help on special teams as well. WATCH RASHAAN GAULDEN’S INTRODUCTORY PRESS CONFERENCE WITH PANTHERS
RB John Kelly – Los Angeles Rams (6th Rd #176)
I was surprised that Kelly fell to the 6th round. He had the 9th highest draft grade among running backs according to NFL.com, yet he was the 15th RB drafted. He was projected as a 3rd to 5th round pick. The SEC Network said John Kelly was in the “toughest situation” among drafted SEC players because he’s backing up Todd Gurley II in the Rams backfield. I think Kelly can earn the role as the top back-up to Gurley. His stiffest competition is 3-year pro, former Texas Longhorn Malcolm Brown. The others are Justin Davis and Leonard Tillery. No other RBs were drafted or signed as undrafted free agents. LA and Rams media will love covering this kid. He will play with an enhanced chip on his shoulder, which should lead to exciting moments and a multi-year NFL career. WATCH COACH SEAN MCVAY DISCUSS JOHN KELLY (13:18 mark)
OG Kahlil McKenzie – Kansas City Chiefs (6th Rd #198)
McKenzie went in the round range I expected and to a team I had in my Top 5 teams to watch. It is strange that he’ll be with a huge rival of the team his dad is the GM of, the Raiders. This move to offensive line was something that a lot teams projected. McKenzie smartly accepted requests to do offensive line drills and he looked natural doing so. McKenzie could likely make it in the NFL on the defensive line, but he has even higher upside on the offensive line according to his father, Reggie. Kahlil said in an interview that his father first discussed the idea of leaving UT early and making the switch to the o-line. He said it’s a great move for him, it won’t be a huge learning curve for him and that it felt natural to him. The Chiefs have a top-tier RG in Laurent Duvernay-Tardif. Parker Ehinger is the likely starter at LG. The only other reserve guard that was on the roster is Jordan Devey, formerly of the 49ers. Undrafted free agent signee Ryan Hunter, who could play guard or tackle could also provide competition. If Kahlil ever gets to play for the Chiefs and has the Raiders on the schedule upcoming, this will be a big NFL storyline. Oh, and if Kahlil McKenzie ends up being a quality NFL offensive guard, that will be an additional bad look on Butch Jones for never moving him there and was often discussed. Watch this analysis below with more of what the Chiefs think of McKenzie. VIDEO: CHIEFS SCOUT BREAKS DOWN EVALUATING MCKENZIE
Undrafted Free Agent Signings from UT (9 + 1 Vol transfer) P Trevor Daniel (Texans)
This was a team to watch for Daniel in my pre-draft projections. He worked out for them. Would the Texans move on from one of the best to ever punt in the league, Shane Lechler? He’s 41. The league loves to move to younger, cheaper punters. The tough part is, the 19-season veteran Lechler still averaged 49 yards per punter last season. Daniel would have to have an incredible camp to unseat Lechler.
CB Emmanuel Moseley (49ers)
Moseley’s forty times in-and-around 4.4 gave him some hope of being drafted. San Francisco had a top need at CB opposite newly acquired Richard Sherman. They only drafted one corner, DJ Reed of Kansas St, in the 5th round. They also signed two other undrafted free agents CBs. He’ll be one of 9 corners to start, so he’ll have his work cut out for him to make an impression.
TE Ethan Wolf (Titans)
The Titans have kept undrafted free agent TEs from Tennessee before. See Alex Ellis. Wolf has accomplished a lot more. He may have to beat out another VFL, Luke Stocker, to earn his way onto the roster. Stocker was a pass-catching TE in college who earned a role in the NFL as predominantly a blocking TE. Could that be the path for Wolf as well? The Titans had the fewest draft picks in the league (4,) but the most undrafted free agents (20.) Wolf was the only TE brought in to compete with the vets. He’s a willing blocker who, despite some timely drops at UT, is a good receiving threat with a big body that can continue to get stronger. The practice squad also can’t be ruled out.
OG/C Jashon Robertson (Cowboys)
Robertson once was viewed as a potential draft pick. His position versatility to play guard or center is always a plus. He’s also very smart and a late-blooming leader. The Cowboys drafted Connor Williams in the 2nd round to likely play guard. They also signed two other OLs after the draft. It will be a challenge to earn a roster spot without injuries in front of him.
OT Brett Kendrick (Lions)
The Lions invested two draft picks on improving the offensive line including first round pick Frank Ragnow of Arkansas. Kendrick was also one of three OLs to be signed after the draft. His 5 position versatility helps in hopes of a practice squad spot.
LB Colton Jumper (Saints)
Coaches always love him. With the need to continue to improve on defense, the Saints want as much camp competition as possible. He will be one of 13 linebackers on the roster this summer.
WR/RS/S Evan Berry (Browns)
What’s his position? The Browns are taking a flyer on the one-time All-American kick returner. He worked out exclusively at wide receiver in the off-season. He’ll have to show enough there because NFL teams can’t keep return specialists on their roster anymore with the de-emphasized kickoff returns in the league. If he develops as a wide receiver, this will be another bad look for Butch Jones not playing him there.
DE Kendal Vickers (Steelers)
Vickers was listed as a DE after playing DT with the Vols. He fits as a bigger end in the Steelers 3-4 defense. He’ll be on the same defensive line with VFL Dan McCullers. There are 8 other DEs on the current roster.
CB Shaq Wiggins (Saints)
Wiggins had success and flashed at his first two colleges, Georgia and Louisville, but could never make an impact at UT. He’s one of three UDFA from the Vols to get an opportunity with New Orleans. It’s a bad numbers deal for Wiggins however, who will be one of 15 corners on the team when he hits rookie mini-camp.
QB Riley Ferguson *transferred to Memphis (Buccaneers)
Veterans Ryan Fitzpatrick and Ryan Griffin along with fellow undrafted free agent Austin Allen from Arkansas provide the competition for the one-time Vol, Riley Ferguson. With his arm talent and mobility, he has a shot at a spot on the practice squad.
Rookie Mini-Camp Invites from UT (2) WR Josh Smith (Saints)
Don’t sleep on this working. If you can play, Sean Payton will keep you. Slot Willie Snead is gone, so there’s an opportunity for new guys to make it. The key for Smith is staying healthy. When he does, he can play the position.
LB Elliott Berry (Chiefs)
Eric’s little bro Elliott gets to go to his big brother’s team at rookie mini-camp. That’s very cool for that family. It will be a tough for him to break through on that really good team.
Look for more as I track former University of Tennessee players (and SEC players) in the NFL year-round here on my blog “Vince’s View.”
VFL and NBA veteran Tobias Harris, who earned Freshman All-America honors during his one-and-done career at Tennessee in 2010-11, is among 35 elite players who will compete for a spot on the USA Basketball Men’s National Team for 2018-20.
Harris, a forward with the Los Angeles Clippers, is joined by a pair of players who were coached collegiately by current Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes, as Kevin Durant of the Golden State Warriors and Myles Turner of the Indiana Pacers also are vying for a spot on the 12-member 2019 USA World Cup and 2020 U.S. Olympic teams. Durant and Turner both played for Barnes at Texas.
Barring injuries, all 35 players are expected to attend the USA Basketball Men’s National Team minicamp at UNLV’s Mendenhall Center in Las Vegas July 25-27. Jerry Colangelo is the USA Basketball Men’s National Team managing director, and the head coach (for 2017-20) is Gregg Popovich of the San Antonio Spurs.
“While we do not have an official competition that we need to prepare for in 2018, the selection and announcement of our new pool of national team members and this year’s July minicamp are important first steps in our preparations to defend the FIBA World Cup and Olympic titles we won during the last two quadrenniums,” said Colangelo, who has served as managing director of the USA National Team since 2005 and has overseen USA teams that have compiled an 88-1 overall record. “This year’s minicamp is an opportunity for us to continue and expand the culture, brotherhood and camaraderie that has been built.
“As is shown by the return of 29 past national team players, our pipeline is well developed, and it is a key factor in our success. We’re also excited about the new players who have been added to the program, and the roster will remain fluid over the next three years as we continue to look for and consider players who can contribute to our program.”
Harris has previous history with USA Basketball, as he was a member of the 2010 Junior National Select Team as well as the 2014 Select Team.
During his lone season with the Volunteers, Harris earned USBWA Freshman All-America honors and second-team All-SEC acclaim after ranking fifth nationally among all major-conference freshmen in scoring (15.3 ppg) and sixth in rebounding (7.3 rpg).
He was selected by the Charlotte Bobcats with the 19th overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft and had his rights immediately traded to the Milwaukee Bucks as part of a three-team, draft-day trade. During his seven NBA seasons, he has played for the Bucks, the Orlando Magic, the Detroit Pistons and now the Clippers.
Harris has appeared in 464 total NBA games with 344 starts while averaging 14.6 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. He joined the Clippers shortly after the NBA All-Star break this season. He started all 32 games in which he appeared for Los Angeles and averaged a career-best 19.3 points while shooting .414 from 3-point range.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – After having three Vols selected during the 2018 NFL Draft, 11 more Vols were rewarded with opportunities from NFL teams by signing free agent deals or earning training camp invitations.
Defensive back Rashaan Gaulden was the first Vol taken in the 2018 draft, going in the third round to the Carolina Panthers with the 85thoverall pick. Gaulden can play cornerback, safety or nickel back in the NFL after a standout collegiate career where he proved his versatility by playing at nearly every spot in the defensive backfield. The Spring Hill, Tenn., native finished with 140 tackles, including 9.5 for loss, over 36 games with 19 starts. He had a breakout 2017 redshirt junior season, where he totaled 65 tackles to go along with three forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, six passes defended and one interception.
Running back John Kelly and defensive tackle Kahlil McKenzie were both selected in the sixth round by the Los Angeles Rams and Kansas City Chiefs, respectively.
Kelly had a breakout junior campaign in his first year as a starter in 2017, leading the Vols in rushing (778 yards) and receptions (37) in 11 games. The Detroit, Mich., native scored nine touchdowns for the Vols and opened the season with 128 yards and four touchdowns in a double overtime win over Georgia Tech. For his career, Kelly rushed for 1,573 yards and 15 touchdowns, while averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Kelly added 43 receptions for 350 yards and played in 33 games with 12 starts. He finished with five career 100-yard games, including a 141-yard performance at Florida in 2017.
McKenzie had a standout junior season in 2017, making 36 tackles and four TFLs over 11 games with nine starts. A former five-star recruit from Walnut Creek, Calif., McKenzie appeared in 31 games at defensive tackle over his Tennessee career and totaled 72 stops. He had a career-high eight tackles in the season-opening double-overtime victory over Georgia Tech in 2017 and also had a five-stop game at Alabama later in the season.
Joining the three aforementioned players are 11 more former Volunteers who have either signed free agent deals or were invited to NFL training camps.
Kenny Chesney announced that he will release his 17th studio album, Songs for the Saints, on July 27.
The catalyst for the new 12-song offering was Hurricane Irma, which devastated a number of Caribbean islands in September 2017, including Kenny’s home on St. John.
“I was at a turning point in my life on so many levels, and then Hurricane Irma hit the Virgin Islands,” says Kenny. “But this album isn’t about St. John, so much as it’s about what happened to St. John and all those islands you didn’t see on the news. To just see the devastation and what that does to people is one thing, but then there’s this courage and resilience people find . . . This is not a literal record, but it is an album about the refuges we all have, how temporary life is and the way we navigate to better places, dig in and face the destruction. And sometimes, we learn to own our wild hearts in the process.”
Kenny wrote or co-wrote five songs on the album, which he co-produced with Buddy Cannon. Kenny dropped the album’s uplifting lead single, “Get Along,” on April 6. Penned by Shane McAnally, Ross Copperman and Josh Osborne, the mid-tempo tune beckons listeners to live the Kenny lifestyle with lyrics like “buy a boat, drink a beer, sing a song, make a friend.”
“I feel like I know what this album’s supposed to be, and I know how much it means to me,” Kenny says. “I wanted to get it just right, before we set a release date . . . and I think we’ve got it. I’m just glad we’ll have it out in time for me to play some of these songs this summer before the Trip Around the Sun Tour is over.”
Kenny kicked off his Trip Around the Sun Tour on April 21. It caps in August after making stops in Atlanta, Denver, Chicago, Seattle, Nashville and more.
Kacey Musgraves dropped a new video for “Space Cowboy,” a tune that she co-penned with Luke Laird and Shane McAnally from her recent No. 1 album, Golden Hour.
Filmed in Mexico City, the forlorn clip was directed by Courtney Phillips and features Kacey struggling to maintain her strength after a break-up.
Currently on tour with Little Big Town through May 5, Kacey will support Harry Styles on his summer tour before kicking off her headlining Oh, What A World: Tour this fall.
