Rising singer-songwriter Annie Bosko has officially stepped into a new chapter with the release of her debut album, ‘California Cowgirl’, out now via QHMG/Stone Country Records. A true farmer’s daughter, Bosko has crafted a 19-track collection that serves as a colorful tapestry of her West Coast roots and agricultural upbringing. Produced by Trent Willmon and David “Messy” Mescon, the project blends the grit of the pioneer spirit with a “Golden State glow,” offering a sound that is as much about timeless storytelling as it is about modern country soul. The album features a massive list of collaborators, including high-profile duets with Dwight Yoakam on the Bakersfield-inspired “Heart Burn,” Darius Rucker on the reflective “Old Friends,” and Joe Nichols on the Top 40 hit “Better Than You.”
The project arrives alongside a surge of momentum fueled by the viral “Line-Men Dancing” campaign for Ariat, featuring San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and a squad of linemen performing to the high-octane “Honky Tonk Heartbeat.” Beyond the raucous party anthems like “Tequila Time” and the empowering “Country Girls! (Who Run the World),” ‘California Cowgirl’ also highlights Bosko’s deeper artistry through tracks penned by country heavyweights like Lainey Wilson, Garth Brooks, and Hannah Dasher. From the Haggard-esque strings of “Bright & Blue Sky” to her soul-stirring cover of Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make It Through the Night,” Bosko delivers a 360-degree sense of what it means to be a modern cowgirl, proving that country is more than a place—it’s a way of life.
