Jenna Paulette And Jake Worthington Share Rustic Duet “Chasin’ Whiskey”

Leo33 rising country artist Jenna Paulette joins forces with fellow Texan Jake Worthington on a new duet version of “Chasin’ Whiskey,” giving the song a deeper barroom ache and shared sense of surrender. Written by Joe Fox and Tony Lane, the track first appeared as a solo moment on Paulette’s sophomore album ‘Horseback’ and now unfolds as a two voice reckoning with love that slipped away. Built on Western fiddle and steel guitar haze, the duet leans into late night stillness, empty glasses, and the quiet clarity that follows heartbreak. The pairing clicks instantly, with Paulette’s clean twang and Worthington’s full bodied baritone circling the same worn truths.

The new version adds emotional weight through contrast and harmony, turning the song into a conversation rather than a confession. It arrives alongside a busy chapter for Paulette that includes recent releases like “Steady” and a growing creative footprint across music and fashion. Worthington also continues his own run of thoughtful collaborations, including recent work with Ashley McBryde. “Chasin’ Whiskey” stands out as a grounded country moment that feels lived in, honest, and unpolished in all the right ways, the kind of duet that lingers long after the last note fades.
