Drew Freeland’s “Trouble” arrives like a weathered truth, unpolished yet unforgettable. Hailing from Virginia and now based in Cincinnati, Freeland channels grit and lived experience into a track that feels immediate and personal. Written at the end of a long-term relationship, the song captures the restless tension of love in its final moments.

Musically, the single sits at a cross-section of Americana, Country, and Blues-infused Folk. Freeland’s low-register vocals carry the narrative with a gravitas that commands attention, while the instrumentation supports without overshadowing her story. There’s a tangible tension in the arrangement, the push and pull between restraint and forward motion echoing the song’s themes.

The result is a track that is both raw and deliberate, a glimpse into an artist unafraid to reveal scars and strength in equal measure. “Trouble” confirms Freeland’s place among contemporary Americana voices willing to embrace honesty over artifice, and it lingers in the listener’s memory long after the final note fades.
