With her new single, “Urban Cowboy,” Cali Tucker is rewriting the definition of a country artist. The Las Vegas-based singer matches classic country appeal with a modern, fresh sound for a timeless and new track.
And “Urban Cowboy,” at its heart, is a romance enveloped in myth that examines the belief that we should hold on to our love, myth or not. The song evokes an elusive romance based on the idea that an Urban Cowboy is something we’ve all heard of, but few have discovered. With heartfelt storytelling and a melody that draws you in, Tucker guides listeners on a journey of discovery, belief, and the magic of a love that won’t go away.
Discussing the meaning behind the track, Tucker explained she always thought of the “Urban Cowboy” as this myth or legend, something that everyone has heard about but very few have seen. Her vision was to write a contemporary fairytale, set in the Wild West of all places, that could become a book or movie someday. This vision is evident in the song’s lush, cinematic quality, which almost makes you picture a classic cowboy love story as relived in every lyric.
This production fuses country roots with modern vibes to showcase Tucker’s singular, romantic sound and skill for crafting timely yet timeless music. Her vocals wrap around you, warm and full of emotion, and the lyrics sparkle behind her. Tucker teases an upcoming music video in the style of “Urban Cowboy.” The visual storytelling will be just as engrossing if the song is anything to go by.
“Urban Cowboy” is an invitation to believe in love, legends, and the narratives we tell ourselves about what’s possible. With this release, Cali Tucker takes another step in securing her place in the industry, conveying that great storytelling and honest music will always resonate.
