Shelby Lee Lowe Drops High-Energy Country Single 'Honky Tonkaholic'

Country music artist Shelby Lee Lowe is set to electrify the genre with his latest single, 'Honky Tonkaholic,' dropping January 31st, 2025. The high-energy track, written by Chris Stapleton and Brett Beavers, represents a powerful homage to outlaw country music while introducing a fresh, contemporary sound.

Recorded at Amber Sound Studio by Ryan Youman and produced by Andrew Scott Wills, 'Honky Tonkaholic' showcases Lowe's commitment to revitalizing traditional country music. The single features epic guitar riffs, thumping bass, and prominent fiddle and steel elements that capture the essence of classic country while appealing to modern audiences.

Lowe, a Middle Tennessee State University music business graduate, has been steadily building his reputation in the country music scene since signing his first publishing deal with Banner Music in 2016. His musical approach blends neo-traditional country with Bakersfield grit and indie rock influences, drawing inspiration from legends like Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings.

The new single follows Lowe's successful fall release 'You Just Missed Me' and is positioned as a potential Country Music Song of the Year contender. With its high-energy, boot-scootin' style, 'Honky Tonkaholic' aims to bridge generational gaps in country music by offering a sound that resonates with both traditionalists and younger listeners.

As Lowe continues to redefine the boundaries of contemporary country music, 'Honky Tonkaholic' stands as a testament to his artistic vision and deep musical roots. The single promises to be a significant addition to the country music landscape in 2025.
