Alright, gather ‘round. This one’s a good time.
Tyra Madison sat down with Chris Ramos of Sons of Lions for The Country Note, and if you needed a reminder that Kentucky can raise a problem in the best way, here she is. Pine Top. Papaw and bluegrass. Belmont. Then “Right Girl Wrong Time” goes nuclear — 14 million streams, CMT, the whole “wait who is that?” internet moment — and instead of freezing in that one song, she just kept swinging.
Holy schnikies, the catalog is a personality test. “Cowboy Killer.” “Party Girl.” “Papaw.” “Judge Judy.” “Kentucky In Me.” And “Whiskey Sour,” which dropped March 20, 2026, and starts cute before it absolutely does not stay cute. Cheater’s excuses. Sour finish. We are stoked about a song that will let you two-step and side-eye at the same time.
Tyra’s own three-word review of her sound is “baddie, saddie, and vulnerable.” That is elite branding, we’re not going to lie. Ramos gets her talking Nashville for real — the rooms, the stages with ERNEST, Maddie & Tae, Priscilla Block, Clint Black, Lonestar, the part where the town tries to sand you down and you go, nah.
Also. Because we cannot help ourselves. That “Cowboy Killer” energy hopped off the record and into a bag of coffee. The Country Note teamed up with Nashville Coffee Co. on song-inspired blends, and Cowboy Killer is the bold dark roast — strong, rugged, full of attitude, which is very on-brand for both the song and, frankly, us.

Holy Toledo. Interview, then playlist, then caffeine. That is a complete afternoon.
