NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Lauren Alaina hit country radio this week with her brand new single, “Doin’ Fine.” Following Lauren’s very first No. 1 smash “Road Less Traveled,” “Doin’ Fine” is another incredibly moving statement from the young star, who wrote the song with Emily Shackleton and producer busbee. While the weight of the circumstances is set up in the opening lines, “Daddy got sober, Momma got his best friend; I’ve cut down crying to every other weekend,” there is a hopeful message coming through in full as Lauren delivers raw honesty with her signature “powerhouse, honey-toned vocals” (Rolling Stone).
Chorus:
I’m doin’ fine enough to know that everyone’s a little broken
Fine enough to learn that hearts are best when they’re wide open
I still got fear inside of me, I’m not okay but I’m gonna be alright
For the first time, in a long time, I’m doin’ fine
I’m doin’ fine
“‘Doin’ Fine’ is a really special song because it’s uplifting, but really honest at the same time,” shares Lauren. “If you don’t know me and you don’t know that that’s actually what I went through, you would almost think, ‘Oh my gosh, she really tried to write a country song,’ but the truth is, I really live a country song!”
Billboard Magazine recognized Lauren for dipping into meatier, more serious content with “Doin’ Fine” along with Taste of Country which noted, “It’s difficult not to appreciate how she leans into all the emotions that come with the ups and downs of her struggles,” and the outlet recently named Lauren one of the 10 Hottest Country Women of 2017. Lauren is also one of CMT’s Next Women of Country and is currently nominated for three CMT Music Awards including Female Video of the Year, Breakthrough Video of the Year and Social Superstar.
“Doin’ Fine” is available now on the singer songwriter’s sophomore studio album, Road Less Traveled, which PEOPLE Magazine calls “full of life lessons and uplift.” Lauren recently wrapped the CMT Next Women of Country Tour with Martina McBride and this summer, the “sassy Southerner with killer pipes” (Parade) hits the road on select Huntin’, Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every Day Tour dates with Luke Bryan.
