Cut X Cut Audio and Video Assets for “The Lemonade Stand”

1. Holding Out For The One

Cut x Cut Video: Holding Out For The One


Cut x Cut Audio: Holding Out For The One
“Holding Out For The One” is one of the first songs that we started recording when we got into the studio to make this record. And I think the goal was to make it feel like this anthem where you’re just declaring who you are and being proud of it, like standing on top of the world. And I love the feeling that this song brings to me when I play it live, it has such a fun jam and vibe to it.


2. Where You Are

Cut x Cut Video: Where You Are


Cut x Cut Audio: Where You Are
So “Where You Are” is one of the first songs that was recorded of this new music, and the first track on “Living Room Worktapes.” It’s been so fun to watch the evolution of that song from that moment, and it was a blast to get to play that song with a band. I loved this moment where we just escaped time in the studio. Jay (Joyce) had this idea for the third verse to literally just abandon the track and just sat down at the piano, and I sang beside him holding onto this microphone. It’s one of my favorite parts of the record, the way we just kind of elevate for a second in the middle of the song, it’s so fun.


3. Jersey On The Wall (I’m Just Asking)

Cut x Cut Video: Jersey On The Wall (I’m Just Asking)


Cut x Cut Audio: Jersey On The Wall (I’m Just Asking)
“Jersey On The Wall” is a song that truly means so much to me and is a song about having hard questions for God. When we were writing it, it definitely felt like kind of a wrestle, and in the studio to me it was also a wrestle to just really want to honor the stories and the people who inspired this song. When we wrote it, I was thinking about this community that I met in a really small town that had been through a hard car accident with five kids from the school, one of which passed away. And I saw her jersey hanging in memory on the gym wall and I thought about the questions I have for God, and I think it’s ok to have those. It also made me think of a friend from home who lost her little brother, and as I was singing this song in the studio, it was like I could just feel their presence around and was doing all I could to just really focus on thinking about them and feeling them and wanting to lift up the stories of people who share those same questions. It’s been incredible being able to play that song over the last little while on the road, and hearing the stories that people come up and tell me about people in their lives that they’ve lost and how much they miss them, and it just reminds me that we really are not alone in those grieving emotions. So this song was very special to get to record on this project.


4. Lighthouse

Cut x Cut Video: Lighthouse


Cut x Cut Audio: Lighthouse
“Lighthouse” is a song I wrote with my friend Dan Agee. We were sitting around talking about metaphors of light, and I love thinking about light and the concept that the darkness doesn’t really stand a chance around it. So it was really fun to create a song around that feeling of being encouraging for people, being that source of light. And I loved getting to stand in the studio, it’s like this big, massive, beautiful church in East Nashville, and feeling the light of the stained glass windows come in as I was singing the song. I love the energy this track has to it too, it’s got such a momentum to it.


5. White Horse

Cut x Cut Video: White Horse


Cut x Cut Audio: White Horse
White Horse” is a song I wrote with Daniel Tashian and Jeremy Spillman, and we were sitting around just talking about this idea of love being so much bigger than I think sometimes society can paint it to be or what our expectations of it to look like, like a fairytale. In real life, it’s so much more beautiful and detailed and colored in and takes you by surprise, and I think that this song for me really represents that feeling. I loved getting to watch Jay (Joyce) kind of put a bit of a leather jacket on this song in the studio, I felt like he put on this electric guitar and started playing and I was like, “Oooh this is going to be so fun to play live.” So this is the song a lot of the times that my band and I get to start the show with, and I really love that empowered feeling that this song has for me.


6. I Kept The Roses

Cut x Cut Video: I Kept The Roses


Cut x Cut Audio: I Kept The Roses
“I Kept The Roses” to me has this classic vibe that it kind of feels like it goes back in time, and I loved getting to record this song. We were all kind of sitting in a circle in the church and just jamming with the band, I remember playing and singing this one and kind of live tracking it with the band, and that was really cool. I love the three-part harmony of the song and the metaphor of really kind of holding onto the good parts in anything that we go through, and being able to smile at the way that an experience shapes you.


7. When I Meet My Maker

Cut x Cut Video: When I Meet My Maker


Cut x Cut Audio: When I Meet My Maker
“When I Meet My Maker” is a song that was inspired by my great-grandmother. I wrote this song sitting in this little rental apartment shortly after moving to Nashville and was just missing her and thinking about the glue that she was to our family. You know, I think songwriting is very much like kind of being a vessel, at least that’s my experience, it feels like you’re kind of listening and just letting an idea come through you instead of from you. And for me, sitting at that coffee table thinking about her, this song was very healing as it kind of made its way through. When we recorded this song, I showed up in the morning and Jay (Joyce) has moved the station that I was usually singing at, and everything was ready kind of around the front of the altar of the church, which just felt so special to me. I walked in wearing my memere’s earrings and kind of just took a deep breath and thought of her before we- We were just running the song. I was sitting there on my acoustic guitar, Jaxon on a second guitar, and then Jay sitting on the electric. We ran the song top to bottom and just felt like something happened that we captured, and that take is what you hear top to bottom in its kind of raw, vulnerable state on the record. It meant a lot to kind of leave it that way, so grateful for this song.


8. Come As You Are  

Cut x Cut Video: Come As You Are
“Come As You Are” is a song that I wrote with my friends Marc Beeson and Daniel Tashian, and I remember just dancing around Daniel’s studio the day that we wrote this song. I love the way that it just kind of feels like you can have permission to just literally show up and be exactly as you are.


9. The Way You Look Tonight

Cut x Cut Video: The Way You Look Tonight

Cut x Cut Audio: The Way You Look Tonight
“The Way You Look Tonight” was truly such a blast to get to record. My friend Keelan Donovan came in to sing on it, we wrote this song together with Daniel Tashian. And it’s just got this kind of old school vibe of this romantic idea of king of a vintage love story, and it was really fun to be able to create the kind of mysterious musical vibe around these lyrics that I love so much.


10. Find You

Cut x Cut Video: Find You


Cut x Cut Audio: Find You
I wrote “Find You” with Daniel Tashian and Sacha Skarbek. I loved the searching atmosphere of the bones of this song, and it was really cool to get to go into the studio and watch it come to life with such an energy. I was hearing it through the headphones going, “This has like a funk to it!” that I just love. And it’s been a blast getting to play this song live.


11. Somebody’s Daughter

Cut x Cut Video: Somebody’s Daughter


Cut x Cut Audio: Somebody’s Daughter
“Somebody’s Daughter” is a song I wrote with Luke Laird and Berry Dean, and was inspired by this young girl I saw standing on the side of the interstate with a cardboard sign, and just kind of thinking about her and wondering what might’ve happened to her. I was really excited to bring this song into the studio and kind of lift up the message and the heart of it, surrounded by like this anthemic energy, and am really grateful for the way that those big drums just kind of feel like- I don’t know, they kind of lift it up to a place of declaring something of like, “It’s important to see the people around us!” I just love that this song is the first single that we got to put out on this project, and it’s been a blast getting to travel around and play this song and know that people have heard it and are singing along is like the craziest thing! And the title for the album comes from the line in the chorus, “counting change at the lemonade stand,” and I love that the entire theme of the record comes from that spot in the music.


12. The Most Beautiful Things

Cut x Cut Video: The Most Beautiful Things


Cut x Cut Audio: The Most Beautiful Things
“The Most Beautiful Things” is such a special song to me. I wrote this with Josh Kear and Gordie Sampson, and I knew I wanted this song to be the last one on the record, and I love that it captures this idea of wonder and innocence and really noticing the beautiful things around you, because they’re there. But Jay (Joyce) has this amazing idea to bring in a little kid to sing at the end of the song, and to me that was just the most beautiful full circle. I watched Amelia come in to sing, she’s seven years old, and she’s so brave. She went and stood in the vocal booth with her big headphones on and sang her heart out, and I just was like- We’d be watching her thinking about the seven-year-old kid that I used to be, riding along and singing in the backseat of the car to all my favorite records, dreaming of getting to do music someday. So it really feels like such a special part of this album to hear her voice coming through at the end, and it’s the last thing that people hear on this album.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Emerging singer, songwriter and musician Tenille Townes’ highly anticipated debut album, The Lemonade Stand, is out today on Columbia Nashville in partnership with RCA Records. Stream/purchase HERE. In celebration of the release, the two-time ACM Award nominee will chat with fans on her YouTube page starting at 1:00 p.m. ET/12:00 p.m. CT before the premiere of the official “When I Meet My Maker” music video.  

Additionally, Townes will host her annual “Big Hearts For Big Kids” benefit concert this Tuesday, June 30 at 7:00 p.m. CT from Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium. Available to stream via Townes’ YouTubeFacebook and Instagram pages, the virtual event will feature Townes performing songs from her new album along with special at-home performances from Dierks Bentley, Brandi Carlile, Luke Combs, Andy Grammer, Mickey Guyton, Caylee Hammack, Ashley McBryde, Lori McKenna, Chrissy Metz, John Osborne and Lucie Silvas. The Bobby Bones Show will also be the event’s exclusive radio partner, featuring an on-air interview with Townes and the event’s stream on their Facebook Page.

In the ten years since Townes started the fundraiser, “Big Hearts For Big Kids” has raised over $1.9 million for Sunrise House—a local youth shelter in Townes’ hometown of Grande Prairie, Alberta Canada. Proceeds from this year’s event will once again benefit Sunrise House as well as Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee’s Troop 6000—an initiative that supports girls without permanent housing. Donations to both organizations can be made via bigheartsforbigkids.com.

Produced by Jay Joyce (Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town), the album consists of twelve songs all co-written by Townes and is already receiving widespread critical acclaim:
 “stellar…a perfect marriage of her razor-sharp melodic sense and Joyce’s stop-on-a-dime production”—The Tennessean

“With a curious and probing spirit, Townes infuses a distinct sense of wonderment into the stunning album that reflects her equally beautiful soul.”—Sounds Like Nashville

“It’s the kind of refreshing country music you didn’t even know your life was thirsty for”—CMT

“there’s nothing more integral to Townes’ first full-length career venture than this sense of community…continues the tradition of country music as a storytelling medium.”—Forbes

“She is a treasure…Moving and meaningful.”—Music Row

“a strong message about the power of empathy and compassion”—The Boot

Of the album, Townes reflects, “The Lemonade Stand is a collection of songs that mean so much to me and are the way I see the world in this season of my life right now. I want this music to be like a gathering place, where people can come and be filled up. I hope this record reminds people of who they are, that they are not alone, and reminds them of their dreams. This record is the dream that I had when I was a seven-year-old kid singing along in the backseat of the car. She would really be freaking out right now.”
