Warren Zeiders releases new single “Drinking Game” while currently headlining his world tour.
The track, out via Warner Records, was written by Zeiders alongside Evan Blair, Jesse Fink, Michael Pollack, J Kash, and Elof Loelv. Listeners hear the rising country star conduct an earworm of a sound with its mid-tempo beats and addictive rhythms while he recounts a messy, addictive love story that you know isn’t good for you, but you keep going back anyway.
All the highs and lows of emotions come to the surface as he compares the toxic connection to a drinking game that he just “can’t stop playing.”
“Our love is like a drinking game/ Every time I’m breaking up, we just take another shot, baby/ These nights, they always end the same/ Every time we’re waking up, we forget what we forgot, baby/ All I know is somebody’s gotta lose/ And I got a feeling that it ain’t gonna be you/ Our love is like a drinking game/ And I can’t stop playing,” Zeiders delivers the chorus with a flirty edge.
Reflecting on the new song, the Pennsylvania native noted it was “so fun” to write about a relationship from this perspective, particularly noting how he tapped into his own romantic struggles to really showcase the reality of modern dating.
“It’s the process you keep going through. In this stuff we’re working on, I’m definitely a dude who’s always wanted a wife and kids, but dating isn’t always easy, especially with this life I’ve got. Finding that connection with the person you want to spend all your time with, that best friend, is hard, but that’s where we’re heading,” he shared.
“Drinking Game” follows the release of “Born to Be Yours” in February and Zeiders’ first live album, Live from the 717, featuring 21 tracks from his hometown performance in Hershey, Pennsylvania. This stop also concluded his headlining “Relapse, Lies & Betrayal Tour.”
He also kicked off his first world tour in March, with dates spanning the U.S., Australia, and Europe. Later this month, he’ll take the main stage at Stagecoach Festival on April 26.

10 Famous Chefs Who Had Humble Beginnings
Not every famous chef started with an easy path to success. These stories highlight the struggles and determination behind their rise to culinary fame.
Food Republic – Restaurants, Reviews, Recipes, Cooking Tips
Parker McCollum is opening up about success and what actually comes after achieving your biggest dreams.
The chart-topping star appears to have it all: a thriving career, a beautiful home, and a growing family. But in a recent conversation with Tracy Lawrence on TL’s Road House, McCollum reflected on how early career milestones came faster than he ever expected, and how, surprisingly, those achievements didn’t bring the fulfillment he once imagined.
Speaking with Lawrence, whom McCollum called “country music royalty,” he was asked, “What do you feel like are some of the things about your career so far that have been a little surprising to you?”
The “What Kinda Man” singer didn’t hesitate in his response.
“Man, what a great question. One that it’s probably an easy answer because I think about it so much, but it didn’t fill my cup quite like I thought it was going to. Because I’ve been fortunate, man, everything I dreamed about, I’ve gotten to do. And then some, times a hundred. I should have dreamed a lot bigger.”
For McCollum, who grew up in Texas, some of his biggest dreams have already come true: selling out Billy Bob’s and performing to a packed crowd at Rodeo Houston.
“Those two things… I’m good. And it all happened relatively quickly and a lot quicker than I ever anticipated. And as I was younger, I just really thought once I did those things and once I had number one songs at country radio and a major record doing all the stuff of a country music career, I thought it was going to fill my cup. I thought that’s what was going to make it all okay. And that’s just not the reality of it.”
McCollum channeled those reflections into his recent release, “Big Old Fancy House,” featured on the deluxe edition of his self-titled album. He co-wrote the track with the songwriting trio known as the Love Junkies (Lori McKenna, Hillary Lindsey, and Liz Rose) while at his home in South Texas during a weekend when his wife, Hallie Ray Light, was out of town.
It was in that moment, he explained, that he realized his happiness doesn’t come from material things, but from the people around him.
“My wife was out of town for the weekend, and we were writing songs and I kind of sitting around, missing her, being in that big old house without her,” he recently told Country Now. “I was like, ‘man, it’s nice to have nice things, but it really doesn’t mean much if you don’t have the right people around you.’”
That message runs through the song, which describes a life full of “two swimming pools,” “fancy cars,” and plenty of space, but makes it clear that none of it really means much without the right person there with you.
During their conversation, Lawrence admitted he has experienced similar feelings.
“I’ve learned over the years too that things don’t make happiness. Money don’t make happiness. Now there’s a lot of joy that comes with satisfying those dreams and I wouldn’t trade anything in the world, but you find true happiness when you get your faith right and you get your priorities right in a lot and surround yourself with the right kind of people.”

Bravo viewers have seen ugly The Real Housewives of Atlanta divorces before.
But this one is downright chilling.
Drew Sidora has already been fighting the order for her to vacate the marital home, citing that she does not have the money to move.
She has also asked the court to review what she says is video evidence of her estranged husband abusing their child. Awful stuff.
Obvious content warning for descriptions of alleged child-abuse
TMZ obtained divorce court documents that reveal Sidora’s abuse allegation against estranged husband Ralph Pittman.
In the filing, Sidora asks the judge to reconsider a previous order that she vacate the former couple’s Georgia home.
At present, she is required to leave the residence by the end of May.
As Sidora has previously expressed, she does not currently have the funds to move — or she’d likely be out already.
She has asked the court to reverse the decision, otherwise she fears that she will become homeless.
During a previous hearing, Pittman blamed Sidora for one of their children being excessively tardy to school.
Apparently, this was enough for the judge to award primary custody of their two children to Pittman — at least for now.
But Sidora accuses Pittman of being monstrously abusive.
In her filing, she reminds the court that she previously submitted evidence in the form of “a video in which [Pittman] can be heard severely beating the parties’ son.”
According to Sidora, Pittman admitted to the abuse in 2024 — but then denied it during a March 2026 hearing.
It’s unclear why the court previously ruled in Pittman’s favor
Sidora’s filing expresses confusion over why the court awarded primary custody to Pittman.
She wrote that he has a “documented history of physically abusing the parties’ son.”
Pittman has yet to publicly respond to the filing, which has now become public knowledge.
Meanwhile, the court has not yet ruled on Sidora’s filing.
We should add that Sidora’s documents allege that Pittman has admitted that the house’s mortgage is $25,000 behind.
Presumably, the court will review evidence of the vile abuse that Sidora describes within the filing.
One would hope that, if it matches her description, the custody arrangement would be corrected immediately.
That said, as we have noted before, the United States legal system does not really prioritize children’s safety or humanity, especially not in the face of “parents’ rights.”
It is our hope that this recording does not become public. Some victims personally share videos to expose their abusers, but circulating something like that against a victim’s will would re-victimize them rather than rescue them.
Our hearts go out to the children. Our society and our legal system have already failed them.
