Tucker Wetmore continues to heat up summer with his latest anthem, “Who Told You That,” which documents his attempt at keeping his reputation as a romantic intact with his newfound love interest.
Penned by Jordan Schmidt, Ashley Gorley, Hunter Phelps and Michael Tyler, the upbeat track finds Wetmore addressing the assumptions that he’s a heartbreaker who can’t commit. He makes his case, stating that that there’s more to him than the rumors and promises to prove that he’s actually the kind of guy to bring his woman breakfast in bed, take long walks on the beach and put his heart on full display.
As soon as the tune begins, fans are greeted with a dance-worthy, flirtatious melody that’s fueled by the country star’s breezy vocals and laid-back delivery. The track creates an easygoing yet heartfelt listening experience that makes it hard not to believe everything the character at hand is saying.
The chorus serves as Wetmore’s main plea to not be defined by the talk circulating around the town. Instead of letting their weightless words tell his story, he highlights the ways he would show up for her.
“I’ll take a walk on the beach/ I’ll write your name in the sand/ Ain’t no romantic in me/ I don’t know who told you that/ I’ll bring you breakfast in bed/ Mimosas up in your glass/ Treat you like my Juliet/ I don’t know who told you that/ I’m that guy, who’s gonna end it with a bad goodbye/ They love to lie/ ‘Cause baby, I’ll make you mine/ Put single me in the past/ They say you’re wasting your time/ I don’t know who told you that.”
“Who Told You That” earned the No. 1 most-added song at County radio upon its release with 89 first-week stations. The milestone marks Wetmore’s largest add date of his career as the single debuts at No. 54 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart.
This week, Wetmore also announced his new six-song Sunburn Mixtape, that’s set to drop July 31 via Back Blocks Music/MCA/Mercury Records. The collection will combine three previously released fan favorites, “Who Told You That,” “Sunburn” and “Proving Me Right,” with three brand new tracks, “Crazy To Yourself,” “98%” and“YOURS.”
The Washington native will head back on the road beginning next month to launch the second leg of his Brunette World Tour. In September he will also join Brooks & Dunn for select dates, including a stop at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on September 12.
