“Wildfire & Whiskey” Passes 1,000,000 Streams
Nashville, Tennessee – Taste of Country has been a big supporter of Tenille Arts since naming her last November’s #LetTheGirlsPlay artist of the month. This week, the massive fan site premiered the new lyric video for her upbeat “Wildfire & Whiskey,” a song which has already received over one million streams through Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music and other platforms.
The fun clip was directed by Andy Evinger and edited by Kristin Joyner for Artist Integration and can be viewed here.
“This was a fun, easy song to write,” said Tenille, who penned the tune with Jason Massey. “It’s a song about this great love that hits you really fast, and fills you with this great feeling of rapid and spontaneous combustion like a shot of whiskey or a wildfire. It came to life in the perfect way on the lyric video, and I can’t thank Taste of Country enough for their support over the past year.”
Music critic Robert K. Oermann gushed in his Music Row Magazine review of “Wildfire & Whiskey”: “She is a Canadian writer-artist with a winsome, piercing delivery. The song is a lightly rocking, ridiculously catchy, brightly shining gem about falling head over heels. Promising in the extreme.”
The Saskatchewan native and current Nashville resident co-wrote all six songs on her debut EP, which was produced by Adam Wheeler and Matt Rovey and released on 19th & Grand Records. The EP entered the Canadian iTunes Country Chart at #1 and hit #10 on the overall Canadian iTunes Chart and was featured on the front page in the coveted “New & Noteworthy” section. Soon after the release, she was named one of Pandora’s “2017 New Artists To Watch.”
