"Country House" is a song by American country music singer Sam Hunt. It was released on May 28, 2024, as the second single from his EP, Locked Up (2024).[1]
Hunt co-wrote "Country House" with Ross Copperman, Josh Osborne, and Michael Lotten, with the latter also producing the track. Lyrically, the song describes the country lifestyle through the lens of a "nostalgic, romance-driven heart". Sonically, it melds a "moderate stripped-back production" with "808s and synth beats", a customary style of Hunt's music.[2]
Critical reception
Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song a "B" grade, criticizing the production as "listless" while praising its songwriting for being a "lyrically fantastic celebration of the country life." Coyne also compared the song's theme favorably to those of Dolly Parton's "My Tennessee Mountain Home" and Tim McGraw's "Where the Green Grass Grows"[3]
