Charlie Worsham Teams With The Travelin’ McCourys On Latest Single ‘Wrap My Porch Around’, Upcoming Album Slated For August

By Ailiyah Gilliam on July 15, 2026

Charlie Worsham is back in the airwaves, this time with the help of modern bluegrass legends The Travelin’ McCourys.

The two artists recently joined forces on the new single, “Wrap My Porch Around,” which serves as a running start to both Charlie Worsham’s upcoming album, Once Upon A Second Time Around, and his newly-formed distribution partnership with ONErpm.

Modernizing bluegrass by recontextualizing it within a contemporary country track, “Wrap My Porch Around” is a combination of the most well-loved aspects of country, old and new, in the form of an idyllic love song.

Pleasantly straightforward and unequivocally southern, the single is an ode to the south’s pastoral charm in both musical form and its autobiographical lyrical content, balancing Worsham’s context within the modern country scene, as well as his respect for the classic country sound of old. And of course, the backing of The McCourys only elevates each note.

In the singer-songwriter’s own words, the single is “one of the most autobiographical songs on the new record, and it felt like the perfect candidate to represent both my love of modern country music AND my love of bluegrass.”

Once Upon A Second Time Around — which is due out August 7th, 2026 — is Worsham’s first independent release following a decade-long career under Warner Music Group, made with the help of percussionist Jerry Roe, bassist Rich Brinsfield, guitarist Kris Donegan, co-producer Jaren Johnston, and executive producer Josh Van Valkenburg.

Worsham is a Mississippi-born and Nashville-based award-winning instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, producer, and podcast host. His twenty-year residency in Nashville has cemented him as a guitar pickin’ stalwart, as he’s collaborated with the likes of Luke Combs, Kacey Musgraves, Carrie Underwood and numerous others. He’s also being granted the ACM Acoustic Guitar Player of the Year and CMA Musician of the Year awards.

Fans can hear songs off the new album live on Worsham’s Once Upon A Second Time Around Tour in select cities in Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, and the United Kingdom.
