American Aquarium delivers “Wildfire,” the new single off their upcoming studio album, Chicamacomico out June 10.

8CWBY – “Insecure”

“‘Insecure’ is based on a past relationship where regardless of how hard I tried, insecurities surrounding other women were so frequent that we couldn’t move forward,” CWBY shared with Got Country for the exclusive premiere. “At first, because of the world we live in, the industry I’m in and social media I understood it, but after a while it was too much to endure. The song helped me to express my frustration for a situation that I wished she could get over but it ended up being out of my hands.”
