Jerrod Niemann vs. Thompson Square – The Showdown

Jerrod Niemann's new song is on a roll. 'Buzz Back Girl' buzzed back Dan + Shay earlier this week. The Dehydration Nation stepped up in a big way to make sure the Kansas-born singer's new single lived to see another day. Today Niemann and his crew will take on another popular duo.

Thompson Square have released 'I Can't Outrun You' as the new single from their 'Just Feels Good' album. Keifer and Shawa Thompson turn the emotional ballad into a heart-wrenching letter between man and woman. Today's two songs couldn't be further apart on the emotional spectrum.

Showdown Rules: The song with the most votes wins, and the winner goes on to face a new challenger in the next Showdown. Vote as much as once per hour online. If a song wins five Showdowns in a row, it will be retired into the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame to allow for new songs to compete. Some songs will be considered for a second Showdown if voter turnout is healthy in a losing effort.
