7 Must-Hear New Country Songs: Jake Worthington, Kelsey Waldon, Lily Rose & More

This week's crop of new tunes includes music from Texas honky-tonker Jake Worthington, Americana singer-songwriter Kelsey Waldon and more.

This week’s crop of new tunes features music from Texas honky-tonker Jake Worthington, “Villain” hitmaker Lily Rose, traditional country-leaning Karen Waldrup, as well as Americana singer-songwriter Kelsey Waldon and bluegrasser Gena Britt. Texas native Worthington wraps his steel guitar-laced, barroom-born sound around this melancholy track, bringing an emotional precision as he laments how his heart is still taken with an ex-lover, although even those memories don’t live up to his past reality of being with his loved one. Written by Britt and Katelyn Ingardia, the song also features musicians Alan Bartram (bass/harmonies), Jason Carter (fiddle), John Meador (guitar/harmonies), Tony Creasman (drums), Jeff Partin (dobro) and Jonathan Dillon (mandolin).
