TUCKER WETMORE RIDES THE HEAT WAVE WITH SUNBURN MIXTAPE OUT NOW

Six-song collection features new tracks “98%,” “Yours,” “Crazy To Yourself” and more

“Who Told You That” earns career-best add day at Country radio after three back-to-back No.1s

Award-winning country hitmaker Tucker Wetmore turns up the heat with his six-song Sunburn Mixtape, out now via Back Blocks Music/MCA/Mercury Records. Built for long hot days and late summer nights, the collection pairs three brand new tracks with a trio of fan favorites.

LISTEN: SUNBURN MIXTAPE

Produced by Chris LaCorte, the mixtape’s newly released tracks move from the after-midnight abandon of “Crazy To Yourself” to the playful chemistry of “98%” and the moonlit romance of “Yours.” They join “Sunburn,” the hazy standout named Song of the Week by The New York Times’ Popcast, “Proving Me Right” and “Who Told You That.”

Earlier this month, Wetmore earned the No. 1 most-added song at Country radio with “Who Told You That,” landing 89 first-week stations. The milestone marks Wetmore’s largest add day of his career as the single debuted at No. 54 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart. Riding a groovy, breezy country rhythm, “Who Told You That” finds Wetmore drawing a line in the sand between reputation and reality.

The new mixtape follows Wetmore’s third consecutive No. 1 with “Brunette” and a string of milestones, including being named Billboard’s Country Rising Star and winning New Male Artist of the Year at the 61st ACM Awards. After completing the sold-out first leg of The Brunette World Tour presented by NÜTRL Vodka Seltzer in London this spring, Wetmore joined HARDY’s Country! Country! Tour and will take the second leg of his headline tour into this summer and fall. Come September, he’ll join Brooks & Dunn for select dates, with a special stop at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on September 12.

Hailed as “one of country music’s biggest breakout successes over the past few years” by Billboard, Wetmore continues to build on the momentum of his debut album, What Not To, which became the biggest country album from a new artist last year. The album debuted at No. 15 on Billboard’s all-genre 200 Albums chart and helped propel Wetmore to more than 2.7 billion global career streams.

With three consecutive No. 1s, major award recognition and a rapidly growing fanbase, Wetmore is carrying one of country music’s hottest runs into the peak of summer. Fans can keep up with Wetmore on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and his website at tuckerwetmore.com.

ABOUT TUCKER WETMORE:
An ACM Award-winning singer-songwriter and headline performer who has already surpassed 2.7 billion career streams, chart-topper Tucker Wetmore has taken just a few years to leave a lasting mark. Raised in Kalama, Washington, the piano-playing student of country, rock, reggae and more wrote his first song after a college football injury, reaching Nashville in 2020. Kicking off his career with Platinum “Wine Into Whiskey” and 2x Platinum debut No. 1 “Wind Up Missin’ You,” Wetmore landed on Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100 in 2024 with both tracks, showcasing a serene, sawtoothed-country buzz. He released his debut album, What Not To, to wide acclaim in 2025, wrapping hard-won life lessons in laid-back singalongs and soul-scouring balladry. The project marked the year’s biggest country album debut from a new artist. Out now, his six-song Sunburn Mixtape turns up the heat with sun-dappled grooves, polished hooks and a sleek rhythmic pulse, expanding the sound of a hitmaker firmly in his stride. After earning his first two Mediabase Country No. 1s with “Wind Up Missin’ You” and “3,2,1,” Wetmore became the 14th artist in chart history to take his first two singles to No. 1 in the same calendar year. He then went three-for-three with “Brunette” before sending his latest single, “Who Told You That,” to Country radio. Already a veteran of major tours alongside Luke Bryan, Thomas Rhett, Jason Aldean, Jordan Davis and more, Wetmore launched The Brunette World Tour in 2026 with dates across the U.S., U.K. and Europe. Named ACM New Male Artist of the Year, a Billboard Country Rising Star and aCMA New Artist of the Year nominee, he continues to build on a breakout run defined by three consecutive No. 1s and sold-out headline dates.

Day 3 was Sunday, April 16th. It was another hot one, but clouds kept creeping in as the day turned to night. Tens of thousands of country music fans showed up in force to live out the “No Shoes Nation” lifestyle romanticized about in Kenny Chesney’s songs. Despite it being the third and final day of the festival, the crowd showed up early and was full of energy, with the weekend’s strongest lineup to look forward to.

Kenny Chesney, Jake Owen, Niko Moon, Ashley Cooke, Shane Profitt and Dee Jay Silver kept the Allegiant Main Stage rocking all day long, from the paved VIP area right through to the sandy General Admission side. Jake Owen and Niko Moon are full of so much energy and joy on stage, that they could not sit still for a moment. Both will likely be headlining this festival in the near future. South Florida’s own Ashley Cooke shared a story about standing on the beach as a teenager at the very first Tortuga Music Festival, watching Kenny Chesney perform. On this day, she not only opened for Chesney on the main stage, she also performed a duet with him during his set, crushing ‘When The Sun Goes Down’. Dreams do come true when you work hard and believe in yourself.

Justin Moore, Collie Buddz, Kidd G, Nate Smith, Kylie Morgan and DJ Rock played the Sunset Stage presented by Visible by Verizon. Once again, the second main stage offered the most variety, and fans of each act had the chance to get up close to enjoy great songs from artists with their own unique style.

Megan Moroney, Alana Springsteen, Frank Ray, Mackenzie Carpenter and George Birge showed their skills on the Next From Nashville stage presented by Bacardi. This tent stage provides a chance to escape the sun and enjoy the talents of rising stars. There was a ton of talent on display this weekend, and some of these artists will be playing the main stage in the future.

The organizers of Rock The Ocean’s Tortuga Music Festival clearly know what they are doing. The original schedule allows for a buffer in case of bad weather. Kenny Chesney hit the stage earlier than planned, in hopes of finishing before the lightning storm got anywhere close. Unfortunately, about 30 minutes into his set, as he was playing ‘Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven’, we were forced to evacuate due to dangerous weather approaching. Everyone left in an orderly fashion, hoping the storm would pass quickly. When word came down at 9:30 that Chesney would resume playing at 10:00, the majority of festival goers made it back in to see another hour of hits. Kenny kept things moving, playing mostly upbeat songs to get in as many as possible before the 11:00 noise curfew. No Shoes Nation was ecstatic to be able to sing along and dance with their toes in the sand.
