Anchored by the massive hit “Truth About You”, Mitchell Tenpenny’s Midtown Diaries EP is a snapshot of an artist on the brink of reaching new heights. While the Nashville-born and -bred singer-songwriter earned plenty of fans with previous singles like “Drunk Me”, Tenpenny intentionally waited to release a new studio collection (his first non-holiday project since 2018’s Telling All My Secrets), a move that makes for a stacked tracklist. Alongside “Truth About You”, Tenpenny includes fan favourites “To Us It Did” and “Bucket List”, rounding out the EP with a handful of new tunes, like “She Hates Me Too”, which Tenpenny teased on social media in 2020. With that many hits on one EP—and more likely still to come—Tenpenny is sure to join country’s A-list ranks in short order.
