New Music Friday is here and it's giving us a little mix of EVERYTHING you could ever ask for. From entirely new albums like Ella Langley's "Dandelion" to iconic collabs like Lady Gaga X Dochii's "Runway" and Marshmello X Thomas Rhett's "Where We Go" to stunning new singles like Bri Fletcher's "New Her," this weekend is giving us a soundtrack for the books. 

Keep scrolling for a few of our faves that have made it to the top of our playlists this week: 

Bri Fletcher - "New Her" 

Bri Fletcher is at the top of our playlists this weekend with an emotional track and music video reflecting on her past 'selves'. What starts as a simple drive past a childhood home quickly unfolds into something much deeper, blurring the line between memory and present-day emotion.

But what makes this one hit is how she shows up for every version of who she was. She’s not just reflecting, she’s actively caring for those past selves, culminating in a subtly devastating moment where she holds her overwhelmed early-20s self and sings her through it. It’s soft, it’s intimate, and it feels incredibly real.

With lyrics that center on outgrowing who you used to be while still holding love for her, “New Her” lands as a reminder we all need: growth doesn’t mean leaving your past behind, it means learning how to honor it.

Ella Langley - "Dandelion"

Ella Langley's new album, "Dandelion," is officially here, and we're obsessed. We fell in love with "Loving Life Again" a few weeks back when she dropped the single, but it was the perfect teaser for all the amazing tracks to come. 

Today we have the title track, "Dandelion," and "Bottom Of Your Boots" on repeat. Ella's unapologetic country sound and rich storytelling prove that she is, in fact, the future of country music. We can't wait to continue to marinate in this album all weekend long. 

Bay Simpson - "Too Good To Be True" 

If you’re not already paying attention to Bay Simpson, consider this your sign. The rising artist (currently turning heads on The Voice with a chair turn from Adam Levine) is stepping into his moment with “Too Good To Be True,” and it’s giving nostalgic rock energy in all the right ways.

The track taps into that very specific feeling of growing up in the early 2010s. It’s reflective without being heavy, blending classic rock roots with a modern, emotional edge that feels instantly relatable.

Lady Gaga X Dochii - "Runway"

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is almost here, and if the inclusion of a Lady Gaga and Dochii collab is any teaser for what's to come, we are LOCKED IN. "Runway" is a catchy anthem for fashionistas everywhere, but also a nod to the title of the magazine, which takes center stage in both the original and upcoming film. 

We have a feeling that this song is going to be the next viral TikTok sound and we honestly can't wait to see how fans bring it to life. 

Alex Hall - "Heart Like Yours" 

If you’re in your feelings this New Music Friday, Alex Hall has you covered. His latest single “Heart Like Yours” leans all the way into the kind of love that feels rare, and honestly, we’re not okay (in the best way).

Written as a tribute to his wife, the track captures that “how did I get this lucky?” energy, unpacking a love that sticks around through the messy, complicated, real-life moments. It’s soft, sincere, and refreshingly grounded, no fairytale gloss, just the kind of devotion that actually lasts.

“Heart Like Yours” is the latest preview of his upcoming EP 'Turn This Love Around,' and if this track is any indication, Alex is stepping into a more vulnerable era. From navigating sobriety to redefining what love looks like beyond the highlight reel, these songs feel deeply lived-in. 

Lakelin Lemmings - "Life of Mine" 

If your current vibe is “romanticizing the little things,” Lakelin Lemmings just dropped your new anthem. “Life of Mine” leans into small-town joy in the most feel-good way. 

Inspired by the classic hymn “This Little Light of Mine," the track blends a faith-forward message with a bright country-pop sound, complete with church organ moments and bluesy guitar that give it that warm, Sunday-morning energy.

What makes this one hit is how personal it feels. Lakelin reworked the song to reflect her own story, turning it into a genuine expression of contentment and self-worth. It’s not about chasing more, it’s about loving what you already have.

Fandom Daily had the chance to interview Lakelin pre-release. Get the full interview HERE. 

Annie Bosko - "God Winks" 

We're big believers of looking for "signs," and that is exactly what Annie Bosko's EP, "God Winks" is about. "God Winks" is from Annie's debut album but she is giving it new life with a pop-leaning makeover.  Annie has transformed the fan-favorite into a soaring, emotional ballad that hits a little differently this time around.

Inspired by a deeply personal chapter, recovering from vocal surgery and questioning her path, Annie turns real-life uncertainty into something hopeful. The pop production brings a new kind of lift to the track, but the heart of it stays the same: those quiet, unexpected moments that remind you you’re not alone. It’s reflective, a little bit spiritual, and exactly the kind of song that finds you when you need it most.

Connor Smith - "Never Be Gone" 

If you’re not ready to cry, you might want to skip this one. Conner Smith just dropped “Never Be Gone,” and it’s the kind of song that hits straight in the heart.

Written as a tribute to his late grandfather, the track opens with an actual voicemail from him, yes, we’re already emotional, and unfolds into a deeply personal reflection on the moments, memories, and traditions that keep someone’s presence alive. From old trucks to college football, it’s those everyday details that make the loss feel real, but also remind you they’re never fully gone.

Fresh off performances at the Ryman Auditorium and the Grand Ole Opry, and gearing up to hit the road with Thomas Rhett, Conner Smith is proving he’s one to watch. 

Just Jayne - "Love A Loser" 

If your girly group chat had a theme song, Just Jayne just dropped it. “Love A Loser” is that perfect mix of playful and brutally honest, the kind of track you send to a friend when she’s ignoring every red flag.

Leaning into their signature three-part harmonies, the trio delivers tough love with a wink, calling out a not-so-great situationship while still wrapping it in warmth and humor. It’s giving classic country sisterhood energy, but with a modern, cheeky twist that feels straight out of your group chat voice notes. 

Rodney Atkins - "Hole In One" 

Just in time for Masters weekend, Rodney Atkins is back with a new track, “Hole In One.” However, this track isn't about golf; it's a drinking anthem that is playful, catchy, and packed with his signature, don’t-take-life-too-seriously energy.

“Hole In One” gives us another taste of his upcoming album True South (his first in seven years), and if this and “The Years Are Short” are any indication, he’s balancing the fun with something a little more meaningful this era.

Trey Pendley - "Family Man" 

“Family Man” trades in the fast-lane energy for something steadier, more grounded, and it hits in the best way. Built around his own story, Trey reflects on the shift from reckless nights to a life centered on love, fatherhood, and faith. But what makes this one land is how universally relatable it is; it’s not just about his journey, it’s about that moment when you realize the chaos you once chased isn’t actually what you want anymore.

With a debut album Signs of Life on the way and songwriting credits alongside Luke Combs, Trey Pendley is stepping into a new chapter. We had a chance to catch-up with Trey a few weeks back. Get the full interview HERE.

Marshmello X Thomas Rhett - "Where We Go" 

If your playlist is a mix of country music and dance music, this one’s about to be on repeat. Marshmello and Thomas Rhett team up for “Where We Go,” and it’s giving genre-blending magic.

The track effortlessly mixes twangy guitar with glossy, feel-good production, building into a chorus that feels made for everything from sunset festivals to last-call singalongs. It’s flirty, it’s carefree, and it has that “I don’t care where we end up as long as I’m with you” energy that just hits.

For Marshmello, this is another step deeper into his country era (following his collabs with Kane Brown and Jelly Roll), while Thomas Rhett continues to prove he can float between sounds without losing what makes him him. 

Tate Butts - "Brought Me This Far" 

At only 14 years old, you may know Tate Butts from his viral hit "My Defender," or when Brandon Lake brought him on stage to sing "Hard Fought Hallelujah," but the talented vocalist is back with a new song, "Brought Me This Far." This new song shares a raw look at Butts' rise in popularity and how he looks to faith for getting him where he is today. 

Chris Brown - "Obvious" 

Chris Brown is back with his iconic pop sound. In anticipation of his new album, "Brown," dropping next month, Chris Brown dropped a new single today called "Obvious." It is giving us everything we once loved about Brown's music in the 2010s. 

In addition to his album release in May, Brown also shared that he will be going on tour with Usher this Summer.
