“There’s gonna be a reckoning,” Maren Morris sings in a newly released song, “Beat The Devil.” The song serves as the musical centerpiece in a new trailer for the upcoming CBS series, Sheriff Country.
Sheriff Country will premiere Oct. 17 on CBS at 8 p.m. CT. Beginning with the show’s second episode (on Friday, Oct. 24), the series will air in its regular time slot of 7 p.m. CT.
“There’s a sinister but strangely empowering nature to my song ‘Beat the Devil,’ so it threading the needle so beautifully with the theme of Sheriff Country is a testament to music amplifying the incredible acting and writing of this show,” Morris said in a statement.
The series stars Morena Baccarin as sheriff Mickey Fox, who is also the stepsister of division chief Sharon Leon (played by Fire Country‘s Diane Farr). Fox investigates criminal activity in small-town Edgewater, while also having to deal with her ex-con father, as well as a mysterious occurrence that involves Fox’s wayward daughter.
Sheriff Country serves as a brand extension of the series Fire Country, which has also had a solid connection with country music, featuring country artists such as Kane Brown and Jelly Roll.
Executive producers for Sheriff Country are Matt Lopez (who also serves as showrunner), Max Thieriot, Tony Phelan, Joan Rater, and Jerry Bruckheimer and KristieAnne Reed for JBTV. CBS Studios produces the series, with Paramount Global Content Distribution handling the show’s distribution.
Morris has released two projects this year, including her fourth album, Dreamsicle, which released May 9, and the deluxe version of the project, which dropped on Aug. 1 with four new tracks. Morris launched her Dreamsicle Tour in July, with the trek continuing in the United States before heading to Europe, the UK, Australia and New Zealand.
