Background and composition

"Austin" came together after Dasha and her co-writers were working on a song titled "Play Dumb" about "knowing you're getting cheated on", which Dasha could not relate to. It was abandoned and the perspective of a "scorned woman" from that song was then used and turned into "something really boot-clappy and fun and kind of badass" for "Austin". It was described as a "catchy ode to a lover who just won't commit". [1]

Release

Released on November 17, 2023, [2] the song went viral on TikTok in March 2024, which was amplified after Dasha posted a video of herself line dancing to the song, leading to it being used in over 750,000 videos on the platform, as of May 2024. [3] At the end of May 2024, the song was retitled "Austin (Boots Stop Workin')" on streaming services and digital platforms.
