Breakout vocalist, songwriter and musician Willow Avalon continues a landmark year with her new single, “Hypothetically Speaking,” featuring acclaimed country artist Kaitlin Butts. Listen HERE.
Of the track, Avalon states, “Hell hath no fury like two big haired southern women.” “Hypothetically Speaking” is the latest preview of Avalon’s anticipated sophomore album, Pink Pocket Pistol, releasing June 26 via Atlantic Outpost/Assemble Sound. Pre-save/pre-order the album HERE.
“Pink Pocket Pistol is a mix of the lyricism and sassy storylines I’ve continuously written, with more darkness, mystery and a ‘60s country feel,” Avalon shares. “I went in with an idea in my head, and we walked out a week later with it fully executed. Every single person in the room was on the exact same page. It felt wonderful hearing the record out of speakers—after really, intensive, hard work—exactly what I heard in my head.”
Avalon’s January 2025 debut, Southern Belle Raisin’ Hell, cemented her as one of country music’s most compelling new voices. Taste of Country and Whiskey Riff named the record one of the best country albums of 2025, with the latter saying, “Willow is a star, with talent in spades, and who has a long future ahead of her for her pure talent and songwriting savvy that, together, make a lethal combination that puts her in a league of her own.” After making her debut performance on the legendary Grand Ole Opry stage last year, she is part of the 2026 Opry NextStage class.
Originally from Georgia and now based in Nashville, Avalon’s musical journey began with her first word, “Elvis.” Raised by her mother and grandmother in a small Southern town, she grew up playing piano in church and taught herself guitar at age 12, using songwriting as both an escape and a means of self-expression through a life-journey that has been anything but straight-forward.
