Lauren Watkins reveals another side of her musical psyche with new EP – Introducing: the Heartbreak – out now.
Lauren Watkins may be one of the freshest new voices to emerge in country music in recent years, with her unique brand of unfiltered honesty. Now, the Big Loud Records / Songs & Daughters artist has released her second EP of the year with the six-song sequel to Introducing: Lauren Watkins – Introducing: The Heartbreak.
The project was written alongside decorated experts like The Warren Brothers, Nicolle Galyon, Jessie Jo Dillon, Rodney Clawson, David Garcia, and more. Watkins completes her musical introduction with new tracks, “Jealous of Jane,” and “Fly On The Wall” featuring labelmate and Texas Country Music Awards Male Artist of the Year Jake Worthington. Both songs join previous releases “Fine County Line,” “Stuck In My Ways,” “The Table,” and “Cowboys on Music Row” with fellow country riser Carter Faith.
“An EP would not be complete without a couple of jealousy songs, so ‘Jealous of Jane’ and ‘Fly On The Wall’ are kind of the cherry on top for me, I’m so happy that they’re out finally,” Watkins says.
“This project is me just going one step further in introducing myself to the world,” she continues. “I feel like these songs are a perfect taste of the type of songs that I love; love to listen to and love to write. I wrote all of them with people that I love, that I’ve looked up to for a while and have learned so much from, so to have them on this project is amazing, not to mention the artist collaborations that I got to do with Carter and Jake. I’m just really excited and happy to put this music out there and see where it takes us.”
