Taylor Swift Wrote A Country Song For Little Big Town Subtly Called 'Better Man'

Little Big Town are sneakily working their way back into country music’s good graces after the hard left turn they took with Pharrell Williams on this year’s Wanderlust. Rolling Stone reports that the group’s new single “Better Man” was produced by Jay Joyce and written by Taylor Swift, but it manages to keep from feeling like an out-and-out stunt, by virtue of everyone involved being really, really good at what they do. Karen Fairchild’s vocals walk the line and convey both yearning to go back and being strong enough to go forward, and the group still has some of pop-country’s best harmonies.
