Alison Nichols releases her first original song through BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville with “Box Wine Problems,” a release that skips the explanations and gets straight to the good part. Written by Nichols alongside Sherrie Austin and Will Rambeaux and produced by Rambeaux and Ilya Toshinskiy, the song moves with loose rules, open pours, and a total lack of concern for how things are supposed to go. It does not ask permission and it does not clean up the mess. It just expects you to keep up the good times among the inebriated havoc. Listen HERE.
From the opening chorus, “Box Wine Problems” makes one thing clear. Everything might be going wrong, but nobody is leaving. The wine is cheap, the cups are plastic, someone is crying, someone is lying, someone is fully passed out, and somehow this is still the night you would not trade for anything. Nichols sings it straight, letting the chaos speak for itself and leaning into the idea that fun does not require order, answers, or a plan.
“This song is about letting go of the idea that the night has to make sense,” says Nichols. “You stop trying to fix it, stop trying to control it, and just let it be what it is. That is usually when it gets really good.”

Sonically, the track mirrors that energy. It opens with a stripped-down chorus and no percussion, creating a raw, unfiltered entry before the rhythm kicks in. Classic Southern slide guitar runs through the track, adding grit and movement, and the song closes with a full-room sing-along featuring friends in the studio, capturing the sound of a night that has grown louder, looser, and more crowded as it goes.
The moment behind the song is just as fitting. Nichols wrote “Box Wine Problems” the day she officially signed her record deal, turning a celebration with Austin and Rambeaux into a spontaneous writing session that matched the mood of the occasion.
Following the response to her release of “John Deere Green,” Nichols moves further into her own lane with “Box Wine Problems.” It introduces an artist who understands that sometimes the best nights are not the ones you plan, but the ones you stop overthinking and stay for anyway.
