MusicNewsletter newsroom brief · 20d ago · 1 min read · via rollingstone.com

On “Pearl Handled Pistol,” Faith, Laci Kaye Booth, and Baby Nova follow the Chicks’ lead with a little light revenge (and a man in the trunk)

Carter Faith's latest music video for "Pearl Handled Pistol" is making waves in the country music scene, and for good reason. The song, which features Laci Kaye Booth and Baby Nova, is a modern take on a classic country music tradition: the revenge narrative. By teaming up with other artists, Faith is not only showcasing his storytelling abilities but also highlighting the collaborative spirit that defines country music.

The video's concept, which involves a little light revenge and a man in the trunk, is reminiscent of the Chicks' iconic music video for "Wide Open Spaces." This nod to country music's past is a clever move by Faith, who is likely trying to appeal to fans of the genre while also putting his own spin on a familiar theme. The fact that he's able to tackle a darker subject matter like revenge with a tongue-in-cheek approach will likely resonate with listeners who are looking for a fresh take on traditional country music.

As country music continues to evolve, it's exciting to see artists like Carter Faith pushing the boundaries of the genre while still paying homage to its roots. To watch next: look for more collaborations between country artists, as well as a continued exploration of non-traditional themes and storylines in country music. With "Pearl Handled Pistol," Faith is setting himself up as an artist to watch in the country music scene, and fans would do well to keep an eye on his future projects.
