Annie Bosko Releases “Neon Baby (Last Call)” - Acoustic Version

April 27, 2024

When Annie Bosko released her sultry “Neon Baby” to country radio in November 2023, it arrived as the third-most-added single. The song’s contagiously flirty lyrics and budding popularity led to Bosko making her late night debut on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Now, Bosko is providing an acoustic twist to the single currently at Country radio with the release of “Neon Baby (Last Call),” available now.

“This version really allows the vocal and romantic sentiment to shine through,” shares Bosko. “The warmth of the track matches the turn of the season and warmer weather. I envisioned myself on a stool serenading late-night lovers dancing in a divebar.”

Written by Bosko with Jeffrey Steele (Rascal Flatts’ “What Hurts The Most,” Tim McGraw’s “The Cowboy In Me”) and Bridgette Tatum (Jason Aldean’s “She’s Country”), and working with producers Derek George and Mickey Jack Cones, “Neon Baby” entices listeners with the California native’s flare for neo-traditional twang, a fitting conduit for its playful lyrics.

“Neon Baby (Last Call)” comes on the heels of Bosko’s recently released duet with Vince Gill, “Higher Ground” – and follows the release of her self-titled EP earlier this year, featuring five songs including the original rendition of “Neon Baby.”

Bosko is set to take the stage at Stagecoach tomorrow, Saturday, April 27 at the Toyota Music Den following a performance at Ryman Auditorium earlier this week for the Walkin’ After Midnight: The Music of Patsy Cline tribute show, with ABC News/“Good Morning America” praising, “Annie Bosko wowed with ‘You’re Stronger Than Me.’”

Having recently made her international debut at C2C: Country to Country in Glasgow with a solo acoustic set to a sold-out arena, Bosko will perform on additional festival stages across the U.S. this spring and summer, including CMA Fest, Country Jam, Faster Horses and Watershed Festival.

About Annie Bosko
With a voice that beams like a ray of California sunshine, Stone Country Records/Brown Sellers Brown Management singer-songwriter Annie Bosko pairs a sound anchored deep in the organic twang of ‘90s country with simple songs told from the heart, preaching equal parts healing and honky-tonk hope. A student of legendary crooners like Patsy Cline with added inspiration from Shania Twain, George Strait, Dwight Yoakam, The Beatles and more, the Golden State native broke out in 2014 with the SiriusXM/CMT hit “Crooked Halo,” bucking the bro-country trend for a traditionally flavored anthem that has now amassed more than 3 million streams. She went on to write songs recorded by Willie Nelson and Jessica Simpson, tour alongside Tim McGraw, Dierks Bentley and Blake Shelton, sell out the famed Troubadour and perform on the Grand Ole Opry and at Ryman Auditorium–the fabled Mother Church of Country Music–while also becoming an in-demand studio vocalist and earning the title Artist to Watch from rolling Stone Country. After a series of standout collaborations with country icons Vince Gill, Dwight Yoakam and Raul Malo, she is now embracing her true nature for creative rejuvenation. Working with producers Derek George and Mickey Jack Cones, a new batch of music pairs unapologetic twang, clever wordplay, and deep compassion with her long standing downhome-diva vocal, capturing the full range of timeless American art in its purest form. In 2023, Bosko released the powerful-yet-tender ballad “Dandelions” in memory of the victims of Nashville’s Covenant School shooting–a track written alongside Danny Myrick which has now become a beacon of community remembrance and faith. Lost in grief and capturing the reverberating shock of that day’s unfathomable loss, the track has been embraced by the Covenant School families themselves, with all proceeds being donated for their benefit through ACM Lifting Lives. Her five-song EP Annie Bosko is available now, featuring sharp-yet-simple, pure-country songs written or co-written with hitmakers like Jeffrey Steele, Bridgette Tatum and more, all aimed at uplifting, inspiring or just singing along with women and country-music lovers everywhere.

Annie Bosko Brings "Neon Baby" to "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

January 9, 2024

Following the release of her debut EP via Stone Country Records, Annie Bosko brought her Billboard-dubbed “superb” and “sinewy R&B-country come-on” “Neon Baby” to “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” last night, January 8. Watch her performance below.

“Annie Bosko embraces her femininity and generates an unapologetic delivery of ’90s-inspired country songs,” Country Now praises of the singer/songwriter, calling her self-titled project “further proof that Bosko is a force to be reckoned with in this industry,” while Entertainment Focus observes the EP “promises a nostalgic journey anchored in the organic twang of the ’90s golden era.”

“I don’t think I’ve been able to capture it all this well before,” Bosko admits. “There’s a beauty of getting to a place where you stop trying to please people or chase what you think is cool, and just do what’s in your heart. It’s about creating what you feel the world needs right now, and for me, I miss those songs that made me move to Nashville.

“The thing that excites me about this new music is I feel rejuvenated. I’m done being afraid to show my country roots. And I’m doing it with a modern twist.”

“Boots On” reignites the line-dancing energy and all-out fun of the ‘90s, while fiddle rockers like “Honky Tonk Highway” tribute the women bold enough to chase their dreams – wherever they lead – and the tongue-in-cheek “He Gone,” written by Lainey Wilson, Terri Jo Box and Trent Tomlinson, continues country’s long history of fun (but undeniably intelligent) wordplay.

Hope can be found in album opener “Sometimes I Forget,” as the tried-and-true artist delivers a “much needed” message of gratitude. With spirit-lifting lyrics and a sonic swell of warm country rock, it’s an acknowledgment of the little things we take for granted – those small blessings that make us “us.” For Bosko, finally being able to see those little things has let her become the country artist she was always meant to be.

Following her performance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” Bosko will celebrate the release of the collection at Los Angeles’ famed Troubadour on Wednesday, Jan. 10, with tickets available for purchase HERE.

Annie Bosko's Sultry "Neon Baby" Third Most-Added at Country Radio

November 7, 2023

Following her first release for Benny Brown’s Stone Country Records, singer/songwriter Annie Bosko’s sultry “Neon Baby” is the third most-added song at Country radio today, Nov. 6. Listen to the track, along with recently released “Boots On,” HERE.

“I’m so excited ‘Neon Baby’ is my radio single,” shares Bosko. “It’s such a feel-good song, and I think it’s a different sound and message, especially coming from a female. I loved embracing my romantic side and featuring the dreamy lap steel guitar. It’s got a lot of soul and a little throwback with a modern twist.”

Written by Bosko with Jeffrey Steele (Rascal Flatts’ “What Hurts The Most,” Tim McGraw’s “The Cowboy In Me”) and Bridgette Tatum (Jason Aldean’s “She’s Country”), and working with producers Derek George and Mickey Jack Cones, “Neon Baby” entices listeners with the California native’s flare for neo-traditional twang, a fitting conduit for its playful and flirty lyrics:

I’ll be your neon baby
I’ll drive you midnight crazy
I’ll hit your lips like whiskey
When you lean in to kiss me
Put that whiskey down and kiss me again and again
Turn me on
I’ll be your neon, baby

Bosko made her Grand Ole Opry debut Sept. 30 among dates opening for Tim McGraw and Dwight Yoakam and is set to perform at several prominent festivals in 2024. With her radio tour well underway, she has shared her “fearless” pure-country sound and edge-of-your-seat songwriting with stations across the country.

Among recent visits, Ashley Morrison from WFUS-Tampa Bay shared, “When you meet Annie and spend time with her voice you’ll wonder where the heck she’s been – I learned she’s been spending years with other impressive creators but her vocal range and musical abilities leave you wanting more. I’m excited that country radio and listeners are being introduced to her. She’s incredibly personable and exudes the confidence you’d expect from an artist who’s been in the spotlight for decades.”

Having performed the National Anthem countless times for events across NASCAR, NFL, NBA, MLB and more, Bosko will sing the anthem next month on Dec. 11 for the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas.
