Introducing Maggie Antone: Nashville breakout debuts "Suburban Outlaw" & Video
Rising Nashville star Maggie Antone unveils a new song, “Suburban Outlaw,” written and produced by Antone with co-production from Carrie K (Noah Kahan, Jessie Murph, Suki Waterhouse). Watch the David O’Donohue-directed video below. The track is out on Antone’s own label Love Big in partnership with Thirty Tigers, with whom she recently signed a distribution deal.
“Comparison is the thief of joy,” says Antone. “Music isn’t a competition, it’s a community.”
An early version of “Suburban Outlaw” gained significant attention on TikTok when Maggie posted an unfinished clip of the song. The original video earned 1 million views in less than 24 hours and has now reached nearly 3 million views.
Born and raised in Richmond, VA, Antone has been hailed by several as a bold new voice on the rise in alternative country. Her cover of Tyler Childers’ “Lady May” won her instant attention, and Interpretations, a follow up collection of covers including Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” John Prine’s “Spanish Pipe Dream” and more, was released in late 2022 to early acclaim.
A songwriter since the age of 16, Antone has made music her full-time job since leaving college in late 2021. She is determined to make music that connects with people and write songs that make audiences feel seen and heard—a quality she deeply admires in the artists that have so inspired her to choose this path.
More from Antone is imminent.
