“Nothin’ Better to Do” appears on the forthcoming deluxe edition of Faith’s celebrated album Cherry Valley
On Carter Faith’s debut LP, which Rolling Stone named the Number Two country album of 2025, there were no featured pairings — just a 15-song journey full of classic twang with modern, subversive twists and even a little love for Billy Bob Thorton. For the deluxe version, Cherry Valley Forever (out July 24), Faith recruited Wyatt Flores for a duet that lives well within the sex, drugs, and country music universe she created.
Titled “Nothin’ Better to Do,” it’s a ballad about two broken hearts taking solace, however temporary, in the arms of each other. An official music video for the song, written by written by Faith, Shane McAnally, and Tofer Brown, dropped on Friday.
“It was just this fantastical dreamland that I created in my head, and I wanted my songs to live in that world too,” Faith told Rolling Stone about Cherry Valley. “I love the drama. I wanted them all to feel like they could fit in that very weird, Alice in Wonderland world.”
Cherry Valley Forever will feature five new songs, including the previously released “Ain’t Over Yet.” It comes as Faith is on tour with Post Malone, and following her ACM nomination for Album of the Year, the first debut album to receive the honor in a decade.
Flores, meanwhile, has new music of his own coming soon: Scared of Heights is due July 31, which was produced by Charlie Handsome, Jacob “J Kash” Hindlin, and Gian Stone. With songs like “Drive All Night” and “Runnin’ on E,” it finds Flores exploring new, more propulsive dynamics in his vulnerable country sound.
