Los Angeles, California (February 5, 2025)- Lanie Gardner, Amazon Music's 2025 Artist to Watch, has unleashed the vibrant music video for her latest single, "Buzzkill" (BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville). The playful yet bold video perfectly captures the song's witty spirit, solidifying "Buzzkill" as the ultimate anthem for cutting through the drama and embracing authenticity. The video premiered today on CMT, CMT Music, and CMT Equal Play. Fans can also listen to "Buzzkill" here.

Gardner, praised by Billboard for her ability to "stand out from a crowded pack of country music newcomers," continues to build momentum with her unique blend of raw storytelling and rock-infused country energy. "Buzzkill" offers an exciting preview of her highly anticipated sophomore album, slated for release later this year.

The Recording Academy (naming her a 2025 Top 25 Artist to Watch) and Absolute Radio Country (class of 2025) have both recognized Gardner's rising star. The CMT Next Up Now Artist has a busy year ahead, including joining Corey Kent on his Black Bandana Tour and making her Stagecoach debut alongside country music heavyweights like Jelly Roll, Zach Bryan, and Luke Combs.

Gardner's journey, from the Appalachian Mountains to international stages, is a testament to her talent and drive. Her career took off after her cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" went viral, garnering nearly 60 million views. Her debut album, A Songwriter's Diary (released in October 2024), showcased her songwriting prowess and personal storytelling. Recently, her track "Buzzkill" was featured on the soundtrack for the film Twisters, alongside music from Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, and Miranda Lambert. With accolades like Amazon Music 2025 Artist To Watch and CMT Next Up Artist, and past touring experience with artists like Jelly Roll and ZZ Ward, Gardner is poised to make a significant impact on the country music scene.
