JCCutter – “Tequila at Dawn”

JCCutter’s new single “Tequila at Dawn” is a country-rock track that knows exactly what it wants to be, and it’s built for playlists, radio airplay, and those nights when you need a song everyone can sing along to.

The chorus is where this song really grabs you. It’s written as a tongue-in-cheek morning prayer, and it’s catchy as hell. You’ll probably find yourself humming it hours later without realizing it, and the humor here works because JCCutter doesn’t push it too far into joke territory. It’s funny but still grounded in reality, tequila, regret, and all the familiar morning-after moments.

The song clocks in at about three and a half minutes, which is ideal for radio programmers and playlist curators. The arrangement is smart too. It gives the chorus space to land and stick with you, so you’ll want to replay it. JCCutter blends Americana with rock and country storytelling in a way that sounds natural for the genre.

This is also a different side of JCCutter. Most of his music digs into heavier subject matter like resilience and survival, but here he shows he can write something fun and lighthearted. If you’re looking for new bar country or tailgate music, give this a listen. Follow JCCutter on social media to catch his new releases coming in the new year.
