Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musicianĀ Charlie WorshamĀ will release his anticipated new EP,Ā Sugarcane,Ā July 16thĀ viaĀ Warner Music NashvilleĀ (pre-orderĀ here) with new song, āHalf Drunk,ā debuting now.
Produced by Grammy Award-winning producerĀ Jay JoyceĀ (Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town),Ā SugarcaneĀ is an emotional homecoming for Worsham. What began as personal reflections from a daily writing exercise, grew into something much more universalāsix new songs that celebrate the love, perseverance, struggle and joy experienced through life and the people who are there through it all.Ā
Of the track, Worsham shares, āāHalf Drunkā tells the story of the first time I told my wife I loved her. Iād just been fired by my publisher and my manager had quit management that week, but I was singing that day in one of my favorite rooms in all the world, the Station Inn. Powered by Yazoo Pale Ale, applause, and a sense that this girl I was crazy about might just be more special and more permanent than the whole music industry thing, I turned to Kristen, said those three magic words, and she said āI love you too.ā I hope this song inspires a lot of drunken making out and maybe a few last-time-saying-I-love-you-for-the-first-time moments.ā
Ahead of the release, Worsham has unveiled two additional tracks: āBelieve In Loveā and āFist Though This Town,ā of which Billboard declares, ācompelling from the first note,ā while Music Rowpraises, āSuper powerful…the hard-times lyric and its blue-collar attitude grab you by your coat lapels and command you to pay heed. Brilliance all around.ā
The new music follows Worshamās 2017 album, Beginning of Things, and furthers his reputation as an artist with āundeniable musical talentā (NPR Music). Released to overwhelming critical acclaim, Beginning of Things landed on several āBest of 2017ā lists including Rolling Stone, Variety, PopMatters, Nashville Scene and Vulture, who praised, āa multifaceted talentāa warm, thinking singer, hook writer, and pickerāand one of the most well-regarded underdogs in Nashville.ā Moreover, The Wall Street Journal proclaimed, āarguably the most blatantly talented multi-threat younger man in country musicā¦a fiery guitar picker; a rangy, affecting song interpreter as a vocalist; and a witty yet compassionate collaborating songwriterā and American Songwriter declared, āone of countryās most formidable dark horses, a quiet contender worthy of the attention and airplay claimed by his less cerebral contemporaries.āĀ
