Annie Bosko Serves Up Heartbreak with a Twist in “Tequila Time”

Review By Glen Parkes

Annie Bosko is proving once again that she knows how to turn life’s lemons — or in this case, limes — into a drink worth raising. Her new single “Tequila Time”, written alongside David “Messy” Mescon and Bridgette Tatum, is a breezy, tongue-in-cheek breakup anthem that’s as refreshing as it is relatable.

The track opens with a sly lyrical jab — “She should win an Instagrammy for the picture that she posted / Got your arm around her in it, now I know why I got ghosted” — instantly setting the tone for Bosko’s clever, self-assured storytelling. The chorus bursts with energy, blending heartbreak with humor: “It’s tequila time… Nothin’ goes better with heartbreak and lime.” Rather than wallowing, Bosko leans into a “pour and move on” mentality, inviting listeners to toast to new beginnings instead of dwelling on the past.

Musically, “Tequila Time” pairs a laid-back coastal groove with country twang, reflecting Bosko’s West Coast roots while nodding to her ‘90s country influences. The production, guided by Trent Willmon, is light yet punchy — the kind of arrangement that makes you want to sway with a drink in hand as the sun dips low.

Bosko’s voice, warm and golden as California sunshine, carries both sass and sincerity, reminding us why she’s earned her place alongside country’s most respected performers. With a career that’s already seen collaborations with Vince Gill and Dwight Yoakam, charting singles, and performances on iconic stages like the Grand Ole Opry, she’s entering this new chapter with confidence.

“Tequila Time” isn’t just a breakup song — it’s a reminder that sometimes the best revenge is living well, laughing often, and letting go with a salt-rimmed glass. Bosko’s blend of wit, warmth, and west coast charm makes this one worth a top spot on your summer playlist.
