Though there aren’t any specific blueprints to success for an independent artist to follow, laying down strong foundations to continually build upon with each precise step is certainly the key.

Tracielynn has absolutely put down those steppingstones!

Tremendous energy within her live shows, opening spots that have placed her in front of filled arenas, great song selections, and a whopping 10 million+ streams to her credit have now all culminated into her next big step with the release of her debut EP More Than A Bad Habit.

With an overall concept in place to capture the different emotional stages of a breakup throughout the EP, some of which we saw earlier this year from her incredibly tender composition “Faith In You,” the focus track, “Broadway Cowboy,” intriguingly swerves that concept to instead present something ultra-catchy, uber topical, and full of unbridled sass.

The song, written solely by Tracielynn, immediately gets your toes tapping in perfect rhythm with the western kissed aura embedded into the pop infused backbeat as she snaps her crisp vocal through poignant descriptives of the fake cowboy type who litters Nashville’s most famous street, slapping the strike of the fist-pumping chorus:

“You’re just one of them boys down on Broadway

Wearing them boots that ain’t ever seen dirt

Pretending to shoot dark whiskey even though Bud Light makes you tipsy

Stealing them young girl’s hearts like Toby Keith singing Gene and Roy

Acting like your something… but you’re just a Broadway cowboy”

Utilizing the second verse to further paint the picture of the famous street and its “cowboy” imposter, she sings of the popular tourist traps that line both sides of it such as the rooftop bars and all the flashing neon lights, while shaking her head at his flirtatious nature, lamenting that the blonde who he’s set his sights on will soon find out who he really is.

With guitars swirling all-around you and shredding their way through the power pack of fire within her voice, TracieLynn encompasses pieces of all the many sides of who she is as an artist with pop laden notions fusing together with modern country vibes and rock kissed edges, expertly keeping her voice in the spotlighting centerpiece as she unapologetically calls out the weekender boys that flood downtown Nashville every Friday and Saturday night.
