Texas country artist Randall King is poised for a breakthrough in 2024 with the release of his latest single, “I Could Be That Rain,” through Warner Music Nashville. Known for his strong ties to ‘90s-country influences, King’s new track features a classic sound and evocative lyrics rooted in his Amarillo upbringing.
King, who has long been anticipated for national success, describes his connection to storms, saying, “I just flat out love storms, man, being from West Texas, how open it is, how flat. They say you can watch a dog run off for three days out there. And you can watch the thunderheads just rolling in, and it’s beautiful.”
In contrast to the awe-inspiring storms he loves, “I Could Be That Rain” explores a more melancholic theme. The song’s protagonist laments his separation from his ex, wishing he could transform into rain just to experience a fleeting moment of closeness. While the concept of becoming a rain shower might seem unconventional for country music, the emotional depth of the song remains grounded in heartache.
