Emerging country music singer Colton Dawson is rolling up his sleeves in his brand-new single “Worth It,” and is trucking through the Tennessee heat in his accompanying visualizer, both released today! Listen HERE. Watch HERE.
On his latest release, Colton continues to showcase his versatility, taking a different approach from his first three with this upbeat, toe-tapping track. “Worth It” continues to showcase Colton’s neo-traditional style, blending lively fiddle, driving piano, and effortless vocals. The song tells the story of putting in long hours and working hard, only to realize that every sacrifice is worth it when you come home to the person you love.
“This song is about going broke dating a girl, but not minding it a bit. I’ve always loved songs that are not so serious, and I feel like this song captures that. Although if you’re taking out a loan to buy a ring, you must be pretty serious. Hope y’all like this one!” said Colton.
Accompanying today’s single release, Colton also unveils a brand-new visualizer that showcases his charismatic personality and playful sense of humor. The idea for the video came from Dawson himself; the lighthearted visualizer highlights his creative vision and expands his artistic abilities beyond the music, offering fans another glimpse into his personality.
But she’s worth it, every bit of her deserves it
When I get tired of workin’, I get to thinkin’ ’bout her
That’s when I pick up the shovel, keep diggin’
Her pretty little hands worth winnin’
Both of mine are hurtin’
But she’s worth it
Dawson’s previous release, “Piece Of Heaven,” has earned praise from country legends, fans, and critics, establishing him as one of country music’s most promising young traditionalists:

“Another single from one of our favorite new voices in Nashville, Colton continues to out-sing his years. Listening to this song is like hopping into a time machine, and it’s easy to see why so many country legends have tapped Dawson as someone to watch.” – Raised Rowdy
