"Make You Mine" is a song recorded by Canadian country music duo High Valley for their fourth studio album, County Line (2014). It was written by group member Brad Rempel along with Ben Stennis and the record's producer, Seth Mosley, and features Ricky Skaggs.[A] "Make You Mine" was first released in Canada in December 2014 through Open Road Recordings as the third single off County Line. After High Valley signed to Atlantic Records / Warner Music Nashville in 2015, they re-released the single through that label on February 26, 2016.[2][3] The song serves as the lead single for their debut major-label album, Dear Life (2016).[4][5]

The song has been the group's most commercially successful, reaching a career-high peak of 58 on the Canadian Hot 100 in addition to becoming a top 5 hit on the Canada Country airplay chart and being certified Gold by Music Canada. It is the group's second entry on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, and is their first on Hot Country Songs.

"One could argue the picture this duo paints is too familiar," writes Dukes, "But their arrangement makes this an urgent listen. It's fun that touches your soul, and that is very rare on country radio."[1]
