Lainey Wilson “Wildflowers and Wild Horses” Demo

Lainey Wlson is topping the Country charts this week with her latest single (and my favorite of hers) “Wildflowers and Wild Horses”.

But what about the demo?

Woahhhhh…

Songwriter Paul Sikes posted the original demo on instagram yesterday in honor of the song going #1:

Oooooohhh… all the chills right there.

Thank you, Paul, Trannie Anderson, and Lainey Wilson for writing such a fantastic song. Definitely one of my favorites!

Also, Lainey is everywhere these days, and is geting her own Hulu Documentary on May 29th, and she’s opening her own bar in downtown Nashville where the FGL House used to be.

Woman is on FIRE!

George Strait and Chris Stapleton “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”

Oh, Happy Day!

Last night, George Strait hit the stage at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, and debuted a new song with his tourmate- the badassery that is Chris Stapleton- called “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”.

And, of course, it’s REAL Country perfection:

This song makes me want a beer real bad.

I cannot wait to hear the actual studio recording of it! I mean, can you get better than George Strait and Chris Stapleton?

No.

No, you can’t.

Oh, and George also announced his long-awaited studio album called “Cowboys and Dreamers” and that it will be out “soon”.

Well, soon isn’t soon enough!

In the meantime, you can catch the legend along with Chris Stapleton and Little Big Town on the road- get dates and info at https://georgestrait.com/
2024 is shaping up to be a great year for Country music!

 

Keith Urban and Lainey Wilson “Go Home W U”

Man, we’re getting all kinds of new music today!

Not only did we get the new Miranda Lambert “Wranglers”, but also the Keith Urban/Lainey Wilson collab “Go Home W U”.

Damn. It’s a great day for Country Music!

And “Go Home W U” is the perfect Summer party song:


I’m digging it. Then again, Lainey Wilson can do no wrong in my book.

Keith Urban is working on a new album, and you can bet that will be on it! That being said, so is Lainey.

So, basically, we have a lot of new music coming our way.

Buckle up, Buttercup!

Miranda Lambert “Wranglers”

Happy Friday!

I’ve been waiting for this release. Miranda Lambert is easily one of my favorite artists, and her new single “Wranglers” is similar to some of her earlier releases.  Kind of like a sequel to her first hit “Kerosene”- at least that’s the vibe I’m getting.

I dig it!

I love the sassy, crazy side of Miranda. And what I really love about her as an artist is that she really sells her songs. Like, you can totally see Miranda setting fire to her dude’s Wranglers when she’s pissed.  On the flipside, when an artist like, say, Carrie Underwood puts out a revenge song, I just can’t see her doing the things she sings about. Miranda, on the other hand, absolutely!

She’s like a modern Tanya Tucker.

Wranglers should really use this song in an ad promoting their durability.

Hopefully, we’ll get a new album announcement soon! She did just recently sign with Republic Records, so you know it’s gonna be happening.

In the meantime, you can catch her on the road this year- dates are up at https://www.mirandalambert.com/tour/2227/new-braunfels-tx/
 

 

Kelly Clarkson Covers Reba McEntire’s “Til You Love Me”

I know I can’t seem to go a week without sharing a Kellyoke video, but come on, she’s just so damn good!

Yesterday, on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” Kelly covered one of my favorite Reba McEntire songs “Til’ You Love Me”, and of course, slayed it.


Yep, she definitely did that song justice. That song was my JAM in the 8h grade.

Very few people can cover Reba McEntire, let alone make it almost as good as the original.

But she did the dang thing!

Honestly, I want to see her cover a Metallica or Black Sabbath song.

Ooooh! Or Dio “Rainbow in the Dark”!

What would you like to see Kelly take on?

Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” Black Sabbath Style

Have you ever wondered what Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” would sound like if it were performed by Black Sabbath?

Yeah, me neither.

But now you will know what that would sound like, thanks to Moonic Productions:

Ok, I actually love that.

Like, if I were still in a cover band, I would want to perform it this way.

Check out more fun stuff from Moonic Productions on their YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@moonicproductions

In other Dolly news, she will be releasing her own line of wine, and I fully support this.
