WAYLON WYATT & CARTER FAITH DEBUT “I’M SORRY BUT I LOVE YOU”

Rising country artists Waylon Wyatt and Carter Faith join forces on the heartfelt country folk duet, “I’m Sorry But I Love You”, via Music Soup/Darkroom Records. The single follows Waylon’s debut album release, Dustpiles.

Co-written by Waylon Wyatt, Carter Faith, and Tofer Brown, “I’m Sorry But I Love You” explores the vulnerability of falling deeply for someone without knowing whether those feelings are returned. Anchored by steady acoustic guitar, Waylon and Carter’s distinct, textured vocals bring an intimate rawness to the track. At its core, the song is a candid confession—capturing the hesitation, longing, and fear of heartbreak that come with crossing the line from falling for someone to admitting it.

Waylon says of the track: “Writing this song with Carter and Tofer was an absolute blast to say the least. This song is what I believe to be the epitome of a good country song, Carter came into the room with the idea and I was immediately blown away by her writing and just felt honored to get to be in the room and working with her.”

Carter expands on the collaboration: “i remember getting asked to write with waylon and being so excited because i love his raw sound and poetic storytelling. i left the session and told him i would love to sing harmonies on it if he ended up cutting it, and he replied well i’d rather you do a whole verse. i hadn’t even thought of it as a duet until he said that. i love this song so much and how it all came together.”

Throughout his rising career, Waylon’s collaborations have highlighted his versatility and ability to connect with country’s most exciting voices. His RIAA Gold-certified “Jailbreak” with Bayker Blankenship, “Smoke & Embers” with Willow Avalon, and “Didn’t Forget” with Wyatt Flores each showcase his ability to create standout tracks across the genre.

Waylon’s debut album, Dustpiles, is rooted in the universal search for lasting love. It traces the journey from heartbreak and uncertainty to finding the person you’re meant to grow old with—a love that endures until nothing remains but piles of dust. Written between Nashville, Oklahoma, and Arkansas without a set timeline, the album took shape organically through Waylon’s unwavering commitment to songwriting. The result is a raw, mature collection that explores heartbreak, grief, and resilience with an emotional honesty well beyond the artist’s 19 years.

This year, Waylon made his Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo debuts while joining Sam Barber for select dates, including his second career performance at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Later this year, he will make his highly anticipated Grand Ole Opry debut as he continues his global tour, his most expansive run of shows to date.
