Rising country singer/songwriter and Holler “Artist You Need to Know,” Angie K has had a breakout year which includes making her Grand Ole Opry debut. Today she releases the song that closed out that first-time performance and earned her a standing ovation on the hallowed stage, “Golden.” The thoughtful and reflective ballad is available now. Listen Below.
“‘Golden’ is a song about the present,” shared Angie K, “and to remember that the greatest gift we can give each other is our time so slow down and savor every moment.”
"Golden" is the latest new music from Angie K and will be featured on her forthcoming self-titled EP, Angie K. Produced by acclaimed writer/producer and BMI Songwriter of the Year, Stephony Smith, the EP will be released independently early next year.
Written by Angie K along with Mary Kutter, Brian Alexander and Noah Lubert, the independently released track finds her reflecting on our most precious commodity…time…and soaking in every second.
This latest release follows the Latin country artist’s recent collaboration with Jimencio for the Tejano and country music infused “Yo Quiero Todo.” Co-penned by Jimencio and Angie K, it is the first collaboration between the Nashville artists, with the duo lauding an unconditional love that withstands all circumstances. Listen to “Yo Quiero Todo” HERE.
The queer country artist first made her mark on Music City with bilingual track, “Real Talk,” catapulting her onto the country scene as a “Highway Find” on SiriusXM’s The Highway. The new music follows the powerhouse vocalist’s recent releases “Stay,” “Death of Me” and “Red Dirt on Mars,” which left Billboard praising her “disarming vulnerability.” She also recently explained the influence Smith had on her when it came to releasing “Death of Me” in a “Holler Nashville Session” sharing, “It's a very vulnerable song, and I almost didn't put in on the record, but I'm glad I did - just because of the stories I've heard of people relating to it.” Listen to “Stay” HERE, “Red Dirt on Mars” HERE and “Death of Me” HERE.
The 2023 CMT Next Women of Country artist has been in the studio working on the forthcoming EP with Smith, who penned the smash hit “It’s Your Love” for Tim McGraw/Faith Hill and has received cuts from some of music’s biggest stars including The Chicks, Shania Twain, Barbara Streisand, Kenny Chesney, Terri Clark, Reba McEntire and more.
Named a 2024 CMT LISTEN UP artist with CMT also calling her an “up-and-coming female artist to watch,” this year is certainly shaping up to be a breakout year for Angie K. Born and raised in El Salvador until age 11 and raised in Georgia, her love for country music was nurtured from a young age. Her mother’s dedication, saving up to bring her to Nashville to the Grand Ole Opry, came full circle with her making her Opry debut in Aug., fulfilling a lifelong dream.
American Songwriter was on hand for the emotional evening sharing, “Her voice rang strong and clear through the Grand Ole Opry House, compelling fans to raise their phones on the last song and fill the darkened theater with light—a moving display of acceptance and adoration for a woman who has dreamed of standing in the hallowed circle since before her feet touched North American soil.”
