Mae Estes finds herself in an uphill battle in her new track “Mountain Of A Man,” out today via Big Machine Records. Left in disrepair after a short-lived fling with a blue-collar cowboy, she’s having a hard time getting over his larger-than-life magnetism. Spellbound by his alluring charm from the get-go, she fell headfirst despite knowing exactly what she was getting herself into with this modern-day John Wayne. Written by Jon Decious, Lauren McLamb, Liz Rose and Paul Sikes, “Mountain Of A Man” is an upbeat, toe-tapping depiction of the outlaws who ride away and the trail of broken hearts they leave behind on their journey to a new horizon. Beautifully grounded by Estes’ signature Neotraditional sound backed by twangy fiddle, pedal steel and dobro, the track serves as an important reminder that all that glitters isn’t gold, and things that seem too good to be true are usually just that.

“This tune reminds me of an old Patty Loveless song. It’s so much fun and I feel really lucky that the songwriters let me record it,” shares Mae. “We always have a good time picking out an honorary ‘mountain of a man’ in the crowd at my live shows, and I think lots of summertime memories will be made with this one blaring in the background!” “Mountain Of A Man” follows the release of the “upbeat and endearing” (MusicRow) “Mr. Fix It” in May. Sweetly depicting the ways in which Mae’s real-life mechanic husband is not only the fixer of appliances and cars, but the mender of hearts in their relationship, “Mr. Fix It” quickly gained traction on TikTok earlier this year, with the original video now boasting more than 800K views and thousands of comments. The song even sparked an organic TikTok trend where users created videos showcasing the “Mr. Fix It” in their lives. More new music from Mae is expected later this year. Named as one of All Country News' Artists To Watch In 2025, Mae is one of Nashville’s hottest newcomers, praised for bringing back traditional Country and making fast fans in artists including Carly Pearce, Dierks Bentley, Lainey Wilson, Ashley McBryde, Jake Worthington, Rhonda Vincent and more. Earlier this summer, Mae acted as tour support on select dates of Brad Paisley’s Truck Still Works World Tour, and she’s currently opening on select dates of Luke Bryan’s Country Song Came on Tour.
