On her new single, "Watch Out For Deer" (set for release on 6/20/25), Lunsford shares a bittersweet story about the Southern farewell, “be safe and watch out for deer,” while crooning about the comfort of returning home and the pain of driving away. She paints a nostalgic picture of tearful nighttime drives from her home place, accompanied by a soaring vocal melody and a sparkling clawhammer banjo. “Watch Out For Deer” is the first of many tracks to be released in 2025, culminating in the release of Lunsford’s second full-length album in the fall.

The follow-up to 2020’s "The Damsel," Lunsford’s new album features the nostalgia of sweet tea and front porch rocking chairs alongside the present-day experience of a young woman living in 2025 America. Drawing inspiration from Dolly Parton, Kacey Musgraves, and Gillian Welch, Lunsford writes of her belief in equality for all, career milestones, unresolved heartbreaks, and family roots. She incorporates family traditions into her new album through the artwork and lyrics, which feature cross-stitch, embroidery, and crochet designs. The Southwest Virginia-raised musician’s second full-length album blends these stories into an interwoven form of folk and Americana, spun together by her clever lyricism and expressive guitar and banjo playing.

NPR Music has featured three of Lunsford’s Tiny Desk Entries, praising her “impressive, expressive voice and some serious guitar chops” in one entry, and her “mesmerizing voice and fantastic vocal technique” in another. Rolling Stone Country named Lunsford one of the "10 Best Things We Saw at FloydFest 2019." Her most recent album, "The Damsel," premiered exclusively in American Songwriter in 2020, and in 2022, Style Weekly wrote a feature on Erin & The Wildfire's latest album, "Touchy Feely," describing her vocal versatility as “a voice that can go anywhere and do anything.” She was an Artist At Large and the lead vocalist in Roosterwalk's 2023 House Band. Lunsford’s original song "Rhinestones" was a semi-finalist for the 2024 Songwriters Guild of America Country Award.
