Thomas Rhett and Teddy Swims team up to bring us a soulful, feel-good track, blending Rhett’s country sound and Swim’s R&B sound, perfectly creating a smooth, fun, and irresistible song. “Somethin’ ‘Bout A Woman” celebrates the magnetic and unexplainable power women have, highlighting the allure and strength that women carry with them everyday. With lyrics that explore the admiration of a woman through love, awe, and respect, it is destined to become an anthem for couples in love.

Olivia Dean’s vulnerable and intimate single, “Touching Toes” was just released, blending soulful pop with infectious grooves, layered with Olivia’s powerful vocals. This track explores the tender, yet complex, moments that come from a blossoming relationship and that delicate balance between emotional connection and desire. As an artist who can effortlessly combine vulnerable lyrics with an irresistibly energetic melody, her ability to blend lightheartedness and depth continues to show her growth as both a songwriter and a storyteller.
