Trey Calloway Rolls Out “Truck Around”

Country music fans searching for a song that captures the carefree spirit of backroads, tailgates, and summer nights may have just found their new anthem. Rising country artist Trey Calloway has released his latest single, “Truck Around,” an upbeat track that celebrates the freedom and romance of country living.

Premiering on Everything Nash, the new song is already drawing attention from critics and fans alike for its lively energy and authentic country storytelling. With a strong vocal performance and clever lyrics, Calloway’s newest release is positioning the Nashville-based singer-songwriter as one of the genre’s emerging voices.

A Song Built for Open Roads

“Truck Around” embraces a timeless country theme: trading the fast pace of city life for the simple pleasures found down a gravel road. The song’s lyrics paint a picture of tailgate sunsets, dancing under the stars, and the kind of carefree moments that define country culture.

Calloway describes the track as more than just a party song—it’s an invitation to slow down and reconnect with the things that matter.

“‘Truck Around’ is really an invitation to trade the concrete jungle for a gravel road,” Calloway said. “It’s about that high-octane country life, the freedom, the romance, and the simple kind of magic a country boy and his old truck can offer if you’ll just give it a chance.”

From its upbeat rhythm to its sing-along chorus, the track was built with warm weather and open highways in mind.

Critics and Country Fans Take Notice

Music writers and radio personalities have been quick to praise the new release, noting its classic country feel and infectious energy.

Gayle Thompson of Everything Nash called the song proof that “country music is alive and well,” saying Calloway is “planting his flag firmly in the genre.”

Deborah Evans Price echoed that sentiment, highlighting the artist’s voice and personality-driven delivery.

“Calloway has a strong, sturdy voice, and he delivers a personality-packed performance on this fun up-tempo salute to the joys of country life,” Price said. “It’ll make you want to roll down the windows and sing along.”

Other reviewers praised the song’s clever wordplay and feel-good message. Becky O’Connor of Country Evolution described it as “a feel-good reminder that sometimes the best nights start when you leave the pavement behind.”

Meanwhile, Michelle Osterhoudt of The Country Note noted the track’s memorable hook, calling it the kind of song that “belongs turned up loud with the windows down and the miles rolling by.”

Building Momentum in Nashville

Calloway’s latest release arrives during a strong stretch for the artist. In recent years, he has steadily built momentum across the country music landscape, earning recognition from outlets including American Songwriter, Whiskey Riff, Cowboys & Indians, and RFD-TV.

North Carolina-born and now based in Nashville, Calloway grew up singing in church and performing from a young age. By the time he was ten years old, he was already a seasoned stage performer.

While gospel music shaped his early musical influences, Calloway later found inspiration in the storytelling and boot-stomping energy of 1990s country legends.

That influence continues to shape his sound today, blending traditional country themes with modern production.

New Music and Big Performances Ahead

Calloway is currently working on a new EP set for release in summer 2026. The project is being developed with producer and songwriter Phil O’Donnell, whose songwriting credits include No. 1 hits for artists such as George Strait, Blake Shelton, and Montgomery Gentry.

With O’Donnell’s experience and Calloway’s growing fan base, the upcoming EP is expected to further expand the artist’s reach in the country music world.

In addition to recording new music, Calloway continues to tour and perform live shows across the country. One upcoming highlight includes a performance at the Inspirational Country Music Awards on April 6 at Nashville’s iconic Grand Ole Opry House.

For now, “Truck Around” is already giving listeners a preview of what Calloway does best: delivering honest country storytelling wrapped in a soundtrack built for good times and wide-open roads.
