Review: Byrdie Wilson Breaks the Cycle (and the Bottle!) with Stirring New Single “Over Me”

Byrdie Wilson isn’t just serving heartbreak; she’s bottling it up, labeling it with truth, and pouring it straight into your speakers. Her latest single, “Over Me,” written alongside Krissy Feniak, is a raw and fearless dive into what it feels like when someone you love keeps choosing the bottle over building a future.

With a smoky melody and soul-baring lyrics, Wilson captures the ache of being left behind: not for another person, but for a vice. Lines like “It’s a quarter to 3 / You’re drinking Jack over me” hit with the slow burn of bourbon and the clarity of a morning-after realization. Her voice is soaked in pain but refuses to drown, striking a bold balance between heartbreak and healing.

“Over Me” is a bittersweet ballad that toasts to self-worth. Not only does Wilson walk away from toxic love, she also leaves it at the bar... tab unpaid. Channeling the grit of Miranda Lambert with the heart-on-sleeve honesty of Kelsea Ballerini, she turns personal loss into an empowering anthem for anyone who's ever had to let go to move forward.

As she gears up to open for Ty Herndon and Montgomery Gentry at the Warren County Fair this July, Byrdie’s showing the world she’s got both the guts and the grit to turn dreams into milestones. With momentum, message, and a microphone in hand, this rising star is ready to toast to what’s next.
