Trey Calloway is back with “Truck Around,” a rough-and-rowdy country party anthem built for gravel roads and open skies. The new single celebrates trading city life for a night of pure freedom, with lyrics that land hard and stick fast. Calloway writes from lived experience, and it shows. This is authentic country storytelling with a good-time engine under the hood.
The song’s hook is immediate. “A long bed for dancing, moonlight romancing, and a great big world on the outskirts of town” is the kind of writing that earns its place on a playlist and keeps it. Calloway puts it plainly: “‘Truck Around’ is really an invitation to trade the concrete jungle for a gravel road. Sometimes all it takes is watching a sunset from a tailgate to remember what really matters.” Hard to argue with that.
The timing is strong. Calloway is currently in the studio working on a new EP due in summer 2026, co-writing and recording alongside producer Phil O’Donnell, whose track record speaks for itself. O’Donnell has written Number 1 songs for George Strait, Blake Shelton, and Montgomery Gentry, and has worked with Cody Johnson, Chris Janson, Craig Morgan, Clay Walker, Aaron Watson, and Craig Campbell. That pedigree adds serious weight to what’s coming.
Calloway is also building his live presence with shows on the road and in Nashville, including an upcoming performance at the Inspirational Country Music Awards at the Grand Ole Opry House on April 6. The momentum is real. Features in Whiskey Riff, American Songwriter, Cowboys & Indians, and RFD-TV have widened his reach considerably, and the buzz around his “Must Have Had a Good Time” video has kept his name in the conversation.
More releases are on the way, and Calloway is clearly hitting his stride. “Truck Around” is a confident, well-crafted single from a country voice worth following closely.
