Broken Peach “Call Me/I Was Made For Lovin’ You”

I just now discovered Broken Peach and I am already obsessed.

Broken Peach is a rock and sould band that specializes in mash-ups and having thier own unique sound, which is rare for a cover band.

Check out their latest release- a mash-up of Blondie’s “Call Me” and Kiss “I Was Made For Loving You”.

This is easily the coolest thing I have seen/heard in a while:

Absolutely the coolest.

Now excuse me while I dive down the rabbit hole on this incredible band.

Kelly Clarkson and Lou Gramm “I Want To Know What Love Is”

The 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony was last night, and this was the performance I was looking forward to the most- Kelly Clarkson and Lou Gramm honoring Foreigner with a performance of “I Want to Know What Love Is”.

Of course, Kelly shined with her out of this world vocals:

 

@rockhall @kellyclarkson joins @Official Foreigner Tik Tok frontman and #LouGramm for a stellar performance of “I Want to Know What Love Is.” Tune in NOW on @Disney+ to watch the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. #RockHall2024 ♬ original sound – Rock Hall


Here’s a full video:

How amazing is Kelly? And Lou Gramm didn’t do too badly either- I mean, he’s 74, and that song is hard as hell.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be broadcast with a special on ABC on January 1st.

Pentatonix “Bohemian Rhapsody”

Wow.

Just…wow.

Pentatonix- the absolutely incredible a capella group- just released a version of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. At first, I was skeptical, even though Pentatonix is the best at what they do, but after watching, I was completely floored.

Seriously, this is incredible:


I mean, what????

How do they do that? The talent and dedication that it takes to make this is beyond.

Also, Kristin Maldonado and Mitch Grassi are ridiculously good.

They are currently on the road, and you get get tour dates and other info (their Christmas songs are amazing, too) at https://www.home.ptxofficial.com/

Koe Wetzel “Good Time”

Well, damn, we’re getting all kinds of great new music today!

First, Morgan Wallen with “Love Somebody” and now Koe Wetzel just released a new song called “Good Times”, which apparently is a bonus track after he released his album “9 Lives” this past Summer.

It’s 100% Koe Wetzel. I love it!

Koe Wetzel is a freaking party.

Hey, I was too, in my younger days. Not at the level that he’s at, but still, this song reminds me of living fast and being crazy, knowing that one day I would need to slow my roll and act like a proper human being, which thankfully, I started doing that at around 25.

Hey, I had fun, and thankfully survived, and now I know to never mix red wine and Jager again.

Eventually, the party has to end. Which is a good thing.

Sounds like Koe is starting to realize that just a little…

Morgan Wallen “Love Somebody”

How about new Morgan Wallen to kick off the Friday?

He’s been teasing a song called “Love Somebody” for months now, and it’s finally here, and like almost all of Morgan’s music, it does not disappoint:

Pretty dang good, right?

Morgan Wallen released a statement about the song, which will be off his upcoming 4th studio album:  “Love Somebody’ is a little bit of a new approach lyrically and sonically. I wanted to try something different, with what I wanted to talk about, how I wanted it to sound, and we were inspired by Latin-leaning influences. I’m really excited about this song and pumped that it is out.”
Kudos to Morgan and his songwriting team. They clearly made another hit.

Again, Morgan is working on his 4th studio album… no release date or any other info on it at this time, but trust that it’s going to be another banger.

In the meantime, Morgan is on the road, selling out shows, and you can get more info, dates, etc at https://morganwallen.com/

 

Kelsea Ballerini “First Rodeo”

Kelsea Ballerini is getting ready to release her new album “Patterns” next Friday, October 25th, and like most artists, these throwing out a few songs early to get you ready.

Her new song “First Rodeo” is perfection.

Check it out with the new official video:


I have to hand it to Kelsea… she has really come into her own as an artist. I wasn’t that big of a fan in the mid 2010’s when she was all over the airwaves with hits like “Yeah, Boy” and “Love Me Like You Mean It”, but she has certainly grown as both a songwriter and a vocalist. Also, she looks like Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood had a baby. I’m not wrong here.

Again, Kelsea’s new album “Patterns” drops October 25th, and you get can tour dates and more info at https://www.kelseaballerini.com/home

Jelly Roll and Kelly Clarkson “I Am Not Ok”

 

This is SO good!

Jelly Roll was on the “Kelly Clarkson Show” earlier today, and they performed his latest hit on Country Radio “I Am Not Ok” together with Kelly on the back-up vocals, and it just took it to a whole new level.

Seriously, though. Kelly just makes everything EVEN better.

Her voice is just on a whole different plane than most humans.

Also, Jelly Roll has a new album out featuring the song you just heard and 22 other songs. It’s called, “Beautifully Broken”, and came out last week.

More info on Jelly Roll, new music, tour dates, etc at http://jellyroll615.com

I still have chill bumps from that performance, how about you?

“Thunderstruck” Halloween Light Display

Tis’ the season for excessive Halloween Light Shows, and I am all for it.

One video that is making the rounds his Halloween season is this  AC/DC “Thunderstruck” display, and I can’t even begin to imagine how much this cost.


Ok, the Pumpkin Broadcasters are a little much, but the actual light display is badass!

I love classic rock, and also, this is the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders signature song (don’t ask me why, but I love me some DCC!) so I really enjoyed the heck out of this.

The company that puts on these incredible displays is called Magical Light Shows, and you can get more info at magicallightshows.com and also on the youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TomBetGeorge

Yes, I totally went down the light show rabbit hole.

Seriously impressive.

If Iron Maiden Covered ABBA’s “Dancing Queen”

I love stuff like this.

Another favorite creator of mine is Moonic Productions, and he’s always doing random mash-ups that shouldn’ work, but they do.

Like this version of ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” in the style of Iron Maiden.

Brilliant.


Don’t lie. You were totally rocking out to that.

Check out more mash-ups and re-imagined songs here: https://www.youtube.com/@moonicproductions

Baby Got Back/Hallelujah

My maturity level is clearly not where it needs to be, and that’s totally ok.

One of my favorite creators- “There I Ruined It”- just put out another slice of AI heaven.

Was it wrong to combine these two classics?

Probably.

But somehow, I am ok with this.

Annnnd now this version will be stuck in my head for the rest pf the day.

Happy Monday!
