Info for Mae Estes

Rising singer/songwriter Mae Estes releases her self-titled EP, "Mae Estes". Comprised of five tracks, the well-rounded EP provides fans with her signature Neotraditional-influenced sound that persists from stirring introspective ballads to booming back porch barnburners, consistently “proving that Country music still has room for steel-string storytelling” (COWGIRL Magazine). Mae Estes includes the “ubeat and endearing” (MusicRow) “Mr. Fix It,” the “rollicking Country bop” (Taste of Country) “Mountain Of A Man,” brand-new track “Drunk On That,” plus two never-before-released songs: “I Better Go” and “What She’s Havin’.”

“The timing of this EP is so exciting for me! I’ve been having the time of my life finding the folks who love the same kinda Country music I do,” shares Mae. “Me and the band have been touring the country and really finding our people this year. I’m stoked to give ‘em a few more tunes to go turn up!”

In her new track “Drunk On That,” out today, the narrator finds herself with an overwhelming list of reasons to drink away the hurt following the end of a relationship. Sitting in the despair and letting it occupy her mind ultimately leads to flashes of defining moments of the relationship that she’d rather forget – vinyl records, packed bags, a diamond ring – which act as a catalyst to go off the deep end and overindulge. Written by Jay Brunswick, Josh Dunne and Chancie Neal, “Drunk On That” is a vulnerable and affecting addition to Estes’ growing Neotraditional-preserving catalogue. With her beautifully hypnotic vocals backed by pedal steel guitar and fiddle, Estes continues to prove her place as a standout artist and steady torchbearer for traditional Country music.
