Price finds "Ways To Be Wicked"
Featuring the song's original co-writer—Mike Campbell of The Heartbreakers—the track is from the forthcoming tribute album, "Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty."
The record is set for release on June 21 via Big Machine Records in partnership with the Tom Petty Estate.
A slew of songs have been shared ahead of album release, including Eli Young Band's "Learning To Fly," Wynonna Judd's take on "Refugee" featuring Lainey Wilson, Steve Earle's rendition of "Yer So Bad," Chris Stapleton's "I Should Have Known It," which debuted as the number one most added track at Triple A. "Southern Accents," reimagined by Petty's friend and fellow Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Dolly Parton, premiered earlier this year following Dierks Bentley's version of the Petty classic, "American Girl."

Four songs in, with "Stone Me," Benmont Tench (of Tom Petty's Heartbreakers, one of Nicks' favorite bands) adds piano. "That's How Rumors Get ...
Margo Price's surprise EP, "Weakness," is a pleasant surprise, indeed. It may be concise, but it's packed tightly with good stuff.
The project's title cut is a bit confessional and finds Price admitting, "Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me." Price sings it like a down home cowgirl, over a toe-tapping beat. She follows this upbeat track with a moody piece called "Just Like Love," which is played in a minor key, and is a "Jolene"-esque meditation. ...
You don't hear much from singers like Margo Price any more. When she's singing of the farm in the leadoff "Hands of Time," she's not singing some type of stultifying, reverse bro country song.
