In 2025, Jake Worthington delivered a raw, emotionally charged track with "It Ain’t the Whiskey", a song that quickly became a fan favorite for its heart-wrenching humor and traditional country sound. Known for his authentic blend of honky-tonk and Americana, Jake Worthington brings listeners into the gritty reality of running into the law ("He said, 'You must be buzzin’ on something son” / I said I am but it ain’t what you’re thinking of") and the intoxicating power of love. "It ain’t the whiskey that gets me / Looking like I’m out of my mind / When she kissed me it hit me / Harder than some hillbilly shine," he intones in his Texas croon for the catchy chorus.
