Chayce Beckham continues to make waves in Country music with the release of his new single, “Little Less Lonely.”
The fast-rising country artist and winner of American Idol season 19 shared the new tune on Friday (Aug. 25). Demonstrating his natural knack for storytelling, Beckham delivers a compelling narrative filled with relatable lyrics and an infectious beat.
Co-written by Beckham alongside Lindsay Rimes and Matt Rogers, “Little Less Lonely” finds the fast-rising country star skillfully telling the tale of two individuals seeking relief from their troubles through a chance encounter. The song paints a vivid picture of their desire to set aside their worries and enjoy a carefree night fueled by a bit of tequila and a lot of fun. The pulsing rhythm and catchy melody further amplify the song’s captivating energy.
“It’s crazy how a heartache brought us both downtown into a country bar like this/ it ain’t much but I ain’t heard nobody burn up a steel guitar like this/ hey baby, do you wanna dance?/ well if you do, just take my hand and hold you tight and rock you slow/ let this go where it’s gonna go,” Beckham sings on the first verse of the tune.
He then goes into the song’s chorus: “And pour a little more tequila/ and drown a couple broken hearts/ and pull you in close and dance to every song that comes on in this bar/ the more we tip this band, the longer we stay/ the more we forget about why we came/ the more we talk, I get a little more lost in the neon in your eyes/ and a little less lonely tonight/ and a little less lonely tonight.”

Beckham first announced the new song while serving as support for Luke Bryan at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on August 12.
“23” Climbing The Charts
The new song comes on the heels of his debut single “23” making its way towards the Top 25 on country radio. “23” is a very personal and authentic song to the singer as he sings about his life story and his past struggles with alcohol addiction. Throughout the autobiographical song he references real life experiences from his past that are true stories.
“Now I’m 23 / and there ain’t nobody who can drink like me / Soon I’ll be 24 / And the Lord knows that I can’t drink no more / I know I should’ve taken it slow / It’s not the way that my life goes / Now I know / When you’re pass out on the floor,” Beckham sings in the chorus of the self-penned track, which was produced by Ross Copperman and recorded at SoundFactory Recording Studio in Hollywood, California.
Since the release of “23” during Beckham’s time on Idol, the singer/songwriter has shared an emotion-filled music video for the track and it has become a staple in his live performance.

The American Idol alum is currently in the process of readying even more new music for a forthcoming project, which “Little Less Lonely” will also appear on.
