Rising country artist and The Voice alum Kameron Marlowe has just dropped his first release of the year, “Tequila Talkin’.”
The breezy feel-good track, penned by Marlowe, Ray Fulcher and Dan Isbell, serves as a perfect roll-your-windows-down romantic summer anthem.
“That ain’t the tequila talkin’ babe / The way you’re smiling’s got me thinking maybe / We should let the salt and the lime have its way / We’ll make up our minds tomorrow, but either way Baby, I’m fallin’ And that ain’t the tequila talkin’,” the Kannapolis, North Carolina native declares with a lovestruck smirk on the chorus, over rollicking drum beats and guitar riffs.
“I always get a little extra confidence from tequila, and the line was really just a way to meet girls at the bar” Marlowe joked about the feel-good tune. “We’ve gotten to play this one live a few times already and the reaction has felt so positive. I’m also such a sucker for a fiddle in a country song, so this is one of my favorite songs we’ve released so far.”
To celebrate “Tequila Talkin’,” the Sony Music Nashville recording artist is set for a special performance Wednesday night (5/5) at the Justin Timberlake’s Twelve Thirty Club in Nashville. The show starts at 7:00 p.m. CT, with surprise guests taking the stage throughout the night.
Prior to this, Marlowe released his major label debut self-titled EP. The six-track collection features his current single, “Sober As A Drunk,” as well as the streaming behemoths “Burn ‘Em All” and “Giving You Up.” Last year, the promising newcomer was also featured on our Get To Know Q&A series, where he shared about his journey to country music and the stories behind songs on his EP.
Already selling out headlining shows (with COVID-19 protocols in place), it was recently announced that Marlowe will join Brad Paisley’s Tour 2021, kicking off July 8 in Jacksonville, FL.
