Drew Freeland is back with a song that hits like a confession and an anthem all at once.


Her new single, “Trouble”, chronicles the final stretch of a long-term relationship with unflinching honesty and a voice that demands attention.


Freeland, originally from Virginia and now calling Cincinnati home, channels grit, perspective, and lived experience into her music. “Trouble” is her “Johnny Cash song,” she says—a nod to the stark storytelling, low-register vocals, and the way it balances sass with heart.


The track thrives in the space where Country meets Americana, with hints of Folk and Blues threading through. Freeland’s storytelling is sharp but never cold; she captures the universal experience of knowing when to walk away, turning heartbreak into empowerment.


Produced with Joe Bianchi, the song retains an organic, unpolished feel. Jon Estes’ mixing and Brandon Busch’s mastering bring clarity while preserving the raw edges, letting Freeland’s voice shine front and center.


Listeners will find in “Trouble” a song that feels both intimate and anthemic, a glimpse into an artist unafraid to share her truth. Freeland proves that Country music still thrives on authenticity, grit, and narrative power.


With “Trouble”, Drew Freeland stakes her claim as an artist to watch, offering modern Americana that’s unapologetically real and impossible to forget.
