Stone beams, “I’ve been in Nashville writing for the last few years, and now I’m so excited to finally release my debut EP! I feel like the songs on this project do an excellent job of portraying me as an artist and as a person. They are flirty, confident, stubborn and nostalgic just like me. I can’t think of a better way to introduce myself to the country music audience than with this EP!”

To celebrate, she released new single “Running Out of Red Lights” today (4/27). Eager to share the sparkling new tune, the songstress has been giving fans an exclusive first listen since Wednesday on Radio Disney Country. She recently performed the new single on TODAY in Nashville. (watch)
