JAKE
WORTHINGTON ENLISTS MARTY STUART FOR “I'M THE ONE”
ON
TOUR WITH ZACH TOP AND RILEY GREEN
RECENT
RYMAN AUDITORIUM GIG LEAVES AMERICAN SONGWRITER DECLARING:
“ZACH TOP AND JAKE WORTHINGTON MAY HAVE SINGLE-HANDEDLY REVIVED TRADITIONAL
COUNTRY”
STEPPED
INTO OPRY CIRCLE ON EVE OF SONG RELEASE (3/13)
NASHVILLE, TENN. – Just hours after performing the song in
country music's hallowed Circle at the Grand Ole Opry, Big Loud Texas country
traditionalist Jake Worthington, known for his steel-soaked
catalog of “music undaunted by time” (The Tennessean),
releases “I'm The One (feat. Marty
Stuart).”
The
La Porte, Texas native wrote the song alongside Stuart and Jenna LaMaster with
legendary hall-of-famer Stuart lending his masterful guitar talents to the
song. Embracing the twanging sensibilities of Worthington, “I'm The One” shines
as the first release since Worthington's down-on-your-luck duet “Hello Shitty
Day” with superstar Miranda Lambert.
With
more new music on the horizon, “I'm The One” proves why Worthington is
“infinitely valued as a fundamental part of the neotraditional movement afoot
again in country music” (The Tennessean)
and “his signature country-as-cornbread charm” (MusicRow)
is front and center:
If
she's looking for a true blue, dirt road charmer
A
blue blooded, mean business, knight in shining armor
To
love you with the love that's hotter than the sun
In
addition to his set at the Opry last night (3/13), Worthington opened for Zach
Top at Ryman Auditorium at the end of last month, performing favorites from his
self-titled debut album of “gorgeous beer-joint purism” (Texas Monthly) like “Next New Thing,” “Night Time Is My
Time,” and waltzing “State You Left Me In,” leading American Songwriter to declare: “Zach Top and Jake
Worthington may have single-handedly revived traditional country.”
Worthington
will continue to tour supporting Top and Riley Green throughout the spring. For

ABOUT JAKE WORTHINGTON
For
Big Loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington, country music is in his DNA.
The La Porte, Texas native was raised on his grandfather's porch performances
of Ray Price, Merle Haggard, and George Jones, and soon picked up his own
Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic, wide, and
wild voice.
Now,
Worthington breathes fresh life into dance halls, beer joints, and ballrooms
from Texas to Tennessee with his 13-song, self-penned debut, Jake Worthington, recent Miranda Lambert
collaboration “Hello Shitty Day,” and latest “I'm The One (feat. Marty
Stuart).”
Captivating
the masses with his honky-tonk stylings, the singer-songwriter has brought
two-step anthems to venues across the country, opening for Lambert, Cody
Johnson, Lainey Wilson, Riley Green, Pat Green, Hank Williams Jr., ERNEST, Ian
Munsick, and more.
Worthington
is also a sought-after duet partner across the Nashville landscape, including
guest spots on Brooks and Dunn's Reboot II on
“I'll Never Forgive My Heart,” HIXTAPE: Vol. 3: DIFFTAPE with
Reba McEntire on “Is It Cold In Here," ERNEST's 2023 extension FLOWER SHOPS (THE ALBUM): Two Dozen Roses on
“Heartache In My 100 Proof,” and more. “I believe in country music as much as I
believe in my next breath,” Worthington declares, and “blame it on my raising,
but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.”
