Laci Kaye Booth
Best Country Artist in Nashville 2026: Laci Kaye Booth
With her haunting, smoky vocals, Laci Kaye Booth has often been referred to as the “country Lana Del Rey,” a title she readily embraces. Following the release of this year’s Love Ain’t For the Faint of Heart, the stunning follow-up to her breakout 2024 release The Loneliest Girl in the World, Booth is poised to make her name as a generational talent who will herself become a touchstone for artists for years to come. Songs like “Pathetic,” a gorgeous exploration of the vulnerability of falling in love, the cheeky “Ethereal Redneck Shit” and the soaring Lukas Nelson collaboration “The Illusion of Love” are proof that Booth is no longer on the rise — she’s earned her place among modern country greats.
