Colbie Caillat lights up summer with her new single “Live Without,” featuring country duo Maddie & Tae, out now via Blue Jean Baby Records. The song is a radiant pop-country anthem co-written with Liz Rose, Eric Arjes, and Jimmy Robbins, and produced by Robbins and Arjes. With its sun-soaked sound and infectious energy, it’s the perfect track for open roads, bright skies, and fresh starts.
“Live Without” captures the strength that follows heartbreak, turning pain into power. Caillat’s honeyed vocals blend seamlessly with Maddie & Tae’s harmonies, delivering a message of clarity and resilience. “Goodbye ain’t the bullet that I thought it was,” she sings, as shimmering production and a driving beat give the song a joyful lift. It’s a reminder that moving on can sound just as good as falling in love.
The single is the fourth from Caillat’s upcoming country duets album ‘This Time Around,’ out now, featuring an all-star lineup including Mitchell Tenpenny, Chris Young, Hillary Scott of Lady A, Maren Morris, Walker Hayes, Lee Brice, Gavin DeGraw, Jason Mraz, Ryan Hurd, and Russell Dickerson. Fans can also look forward to a Christmas tour with Gavin DeGraw this December, celebrating a new chapter in Caillat’s ever-evolving musical journey.
