‘Fire Country’ Features New Miranda Lambert and Dierks Bentley Songs

The first season of CBS’s Fire Country is heating up with the addition of four new songs from Country music superstars Dierks Bentley and Miranda Lambert. The final two episodes of season one will showcase songs performed by Bentley and Lambert.

“I’m a huge country music fan! Dierks and Miranda have written and performed some of my all-time favorite songs, so to get the chance to work with them on Fire Country was a dream come true,” said series creator and star Max Thieriot. “Their songs provide the perfect backdrop for our dramatic conclusion to the season.”

The four songs include:

• “Saved” (May 12) – written by Jon Randall & Luke Dick; performed by Dierks Bentley with Miranda Lambert.
• “Still Burning” (May 12) – written by Miranda Lambert, Jon Randall & Luke Dick; performed by Miranda Lambert with Dierks Bentley.
• “Something in the Water” (May 19) – written by Miranda Lambert, Dierks Bentley, Jon Randall & Luke Dick; performed by Dierks Bentley with Miranda Lambert.
• “Barbed Wire Heart” (May 19) – written by Dierks Bentley & Jon Randall; performed by Dierks Bentley.

“Dierks and I got together with our buddies Luke Dick and Jon Randall, and we started writing for Fire Country. It’s a different process to write to another storyline that’s already been written and sort of go along with the script. It’s been a cool project!” said Lambert.

Bentley stated: “From the moment I saw the very first scenes of the pilot for Fire Country, I knew I wanted to try to write songs for it. Writing for TV stretches different muscles than writing for my own albums. And getting to collaborate with my friends Miranda, Luke Dick and Jon Randall made the whole process explorative and, of course, a lot of fun.”

The new songs will be featured on “Backfire” airing May 12, and “I Know It Feels Impossible” airing May 19, 2023. Thieriot directed the May 12th episode.
