In today's reviews, we're pleased to highlight some new singles from two Longmont artists we've covered before: 5-Foot Betty and Jerry Mars. Give 'em a listen, then check the calendar to see when you can catch them live!

"Wyoming Truck" by 5-Foot Betty

Artist: 5-Foot Betty

Title: "Wyoming Truck"

Genre: Country/Americana

Release Date: July 10, 2026

Buy it: Wyoming Truck | 5-Foot Betty

50-word review: A favorite of 5-Foot Betty’s live shows, “Wyoming Truck” is also an excellent introduction to the outfit if you haven’t heard them yet. These Longmont Americana songsters deliver yet another catchy singalong, but this one’s about learning to drive under an unexpected influence. Charming and disarming; never cloying or annoying.

"Country of One" by Jerry Mars

Artist: Jerry Mars

Title: "Country of One"

Genre: Indie pop

Release Date: August 5, 2026

Buy it: Country of One | Jerry Mars

50-word review: We’re driving down a moonlit country road with the headlights off. As the gloom closes in, the singer’s conspiratorial whispers and plaintive moans are swallowed by an insistent guitar and ominous harmonies. When peace returns in the last seconds, either the sun has risen, or we’ve driven off a cliff.

To support these Longmont artists, please buy the tracks from Bandcamp using the links above. And if you wait until this Friday, September 4th, 100% of the proceeds will go to the artists themselves.
