Riding the momentum of her breakout single “Marry Jane,” country darling and singer-songwriter Abbie Callahan returns with “Yo-Yo,” a twangy, emotionally tangled track that captures all the dizzying ups and downs of a fleeting romance.
Penned by Callahan alongside Joseph Patton and Jason Gantt (Jordan Davis, Kameron Marlowe), and produced by Oscar Charles (Chase Rice, Kassi Ashton, Madeline Edwards), “Yo-Yo” features instrumentation from reigning CMA Musician of the Year Charlie Worsham, adding a vibrant yet grounded sonic layer to this standout track.
Abbie shares, “I wrote ‘Yo-Yo’ about an 8-day situationship, and I’m glad I at least got something good out of that whole experience. It’s light and fun sounding but lyrically dark and pretty sad, honestly. It is the catalyst for my forthcoming EP, setting the stage for a defining story in my life to unfold. I’m really excited to get it out there, and I hope people love it as much as I do!”
With roots deep in Americana, classic country, and pop, Callahan brings a fresh but familiar energy to the genre. Her songbird melodies and lyrical depth are unmistakable—delivering a voice that’s as captivating as it is emotionally raw. Nothing is off limits when it comes to Abbie’s lyrical poetry, derived from lived experience and a fearless sense of self.
Influenced by timeless icons like Linda Ronstadt and Don Williams, as well as modern torchbearers like Sierra Ferrell, Billy Strings, and Leon Bridges, Abbie Callahan is carving out her own lane—where vulnerability meets vibrance, and where heartbreak becomes art. With “Yo-Yo,” she doesn’t just step into the spotlight—she commands it.
The track premiered yesterday on Holler Country and a mesmerizing visualizer went live this morning.
Just this past year, with smoke still curling from the fire she sparked, Abbie’s viral ode to an old familiar friend, 'Marry Jane,' has rolled up nearly 600K streams and generated over 5 million impressions across socials in just the past year.
