"Yippie-I-A," Munsick drops a new song
"Cowboy ballads have always had a way of transporting me back to the sagebrush prairies of home. It's high time I made one for myself," said Munsick. "In every one of them, you can hear the distant cry of the lone wanderer. But why does he cry? That's exactly what inspired 'Yippie-I-A'. I hope it breaks your heart like only the magic of music can."
Written by Munsick alongside Phil O'Donnell and Carlton Anderson, and produced by Munsick and Jeremy Spillman, "Yippie-I-A" details a cowboy's anguish and inability to cope with losing his spouse.
Munsick released a documentary, "White Buffalo: Voices of the West," in January. The feature-length documentary features conversations with members of the Blackfoot and Crow tribes as well as the Blackfeet Nation, as "essential to maintain and humanize the tie to Western culture."
Munsick is overseas this week, performing at CMC Rocks in Willowbank, Australia. He returns stateside with his Boots, Buckles & Bolos Tour on March 23 with a show in Du Quoin, Ill.. His headlining run continues through the spring, including a sold-out date at Red Rocks Amphitheatre near Denver on June 5. This summer Munsick joins CMA Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson as direct support on her Country's Cool Again Tour.
