## Summary

Country singer Wyatt Flores marked the release of his sophomore album, "Scared of Heights," with an intimate, invite-only listening event at the new CAA offices in Nashville in July. The gathering brought together members of his management, record label and public relations teams, allowing Flores to perform a stripped-back set and offer personal insight into the songwriting behind the record, underscoring how closely he collaborates with his team on his creative direction.

During the four-song set, Flores explained the stories behind tracks including "Drive All Night," inspired by a long-distance drive to see a love interest in South Dakota, and "Half a Man," which he described as the album's song he is most proud of, dealing with the difficulty of returning home after leaving. He also discussed "Not Good Enough," a 2000s pop-punk-inspired departure from his usual sound, and closed with "Tulsa and Eleanor," which he called one of the saddest songs he has written, sharing candidly how anxiety, sleep struggles and an unhealthy mix of substances fed into a vivid nightmare that shaped the track.
