Taylor Swift Medley Christmas Light and Fireworks Show

Tis’ the Season for ridiculous holiday light displays!

I’m always impressed by big holiday light shows, especially as my holiday lights are always less than stellar. I always think I will do better the next year, and by the time the holidays roll around, I’m over my big ideas. So, kudos to anyone who puts the time, energy and money into their decorations. I’ll get there one day.

That being said, I always like to see what people come up with, and every year, the level of effort and creativity seems to level up.

This Taylor Swift Christmas light and fireworks display- yes- freaking FIRE WORKS- caught my eye this morning. THIS is next freaking level.


Any guesses what their utility bill is? I’m pretty sure they could put their entire neighborhood through college with it.

So, this guy, Tom BetGeorge with Magical Light Shows is behind the magic, and apparantly you can hire him to jazz up your house.

Maybe one day when I win the lottery I’ll do one. It’ll be a Guns N Roses medley, and HOA will absolutely love it.

Ok, this was an awesome surprise.

Last night in Las Vegas, Miranda Lambert joined Lainey Wilson onstage at her show at the Theater at the Virgin Hotels and it was everything!

They performed Miranda’s breakout hit “Kerosene” and then a song that they wrote together called “Good Horses”.

All I can say is HOT DAMN!

I really hope they release “Good Horses” as a single.

This NEEDS to happen,

 

Chris Stapleton “Always On My Mind”

Yesterday, Willie Nelson released a live album called “Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90 Live At The Hollywood Bowl”- which is from his star-studded 90th Birthday Bash back in April, and it’s full of great live performances, including this gem from Chris Stapleton on his classic “Always On My Mind”:

I mean, chills, right?

Chris Stapleton could sing my utility bill, and I’d buy it.

If you’re looking for some great music to jam out to this weekend, this album has you covered.
More info here:  https://willienelson.com/

Also, the Willie Nelson and Friends docuseries will be available December 21st on Paramount +

I still can’t get over the fact that Wille Nelson is 90.

Freaking 90.

Proof that you just have to live your damn life.

Lindsey Sterling and Ashley McBryde Perform on CMA Country Christmas!

Last night, “CMA Country Christmas” aired on ABC, and as per usual, it was full of great performances by some of Country Music’s biggest stars, and some pretty awesome guests, too.

Like Lindsey Freaking Sterling.

This woman has to be one of the most talented and dynamic humans on the planet, and when you combine her with Ashley McBryde and some theatrics?

You can’t lose.


That was so much fun to watch!

Lainey Wilson on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

You know I love me some Lainey, and her new single “Wildflowers and Wild Horses” is definitely my favorite of hers so far.

Last night, she took the stage on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on ABC to perform it, and of course, she freaking BROUGHT it.


Go Lainey!

Her voice and style is amazing, and she’s unlike any other female artist right now. And honestly? I think she’s just getting started.

Lainey is the real deal, and definitely what Country Music needed after a decade of Bro Country.

Gabby Barrett “Growin’ Up Raising You”

Gabby Barrett continues to put out songs that melt my heart.

The young soon-to-be mother of three, and American Idol star, has really made her mark on both the Country and Pop scene with some really solid songs, and her latest release “Growin’ Up Raising You” is no different.  As a mother myself- not a young one by any means- but still, as a mother to a two-year old, this one definitely hits home.

I’m not crying. It’s allergies.

Sure.

Even though I was thrity-eight when I had my son, he still “grew me up” so to speak, and really. motherhood has been the most incredible experience so far. Terrifying, frustrating, and absolutely glorious.

Also, Gabby’s latest single “Glory Days” is another great song which has hit me in the feels recently.


Expect more gems like this from Gabby on her new album “Chapter & Verse” out on February 2nd.

Jordan Rainer Performing Blake Shelton’s “Ol’ Red” On “The Voice”

I’ll be honest… it’s been awhile since I’ve watched ‘The Voice” or any kind of singing reality show. But every now and again, I’ll see a video pop up from one of the shows, and it makes me take notice.

Case in point: Jordan Rainer’s performance of “Ol’ Red” on NBC’s “The Voice”.


Wasn’t that a cool performance?

First off, I have always loved the original song, and Jordan put such a unique spin on it with that performance.

Was she trying to get into Gwen Stefani’s good graces?

Well, duh.

But still, a creative choice and great performance which is bound to get the Oklahoma native some attention for sure!

Find out more about Jordan on her FB page: https://www.facebook.com/JordanRainerMusicPage/

A fresh, new Country voice that is much needed!

Teddy Swims and Kelly Clarkson “Lose Control”

Yeah, I know I post a lot of content from Kelly Clarkson’s show, but damn, I can’t help it!

Kelly keeps bringing it, so Imma keep sharing it.

Here she is with the indcredible vocalist that is Teddy Swims.


Hot. Damn.

First off, Teddy Swims is like the love child of Chris Stapleton and Jelly Roll, and when you combine his vocals with Kelly’s, you can’t miss.

If you don’t know about Teddy Swims, educate yourself. Here’s his breakout single “Lose Control” which is basically panty-dropper central.


You’re welcome.

Carry on.

Olivia Rodrigo “Vampire” Live on SNL

I’ve really been enjoying Olivia Rodrigo as of late, and her song “Vampire” is one of my favorites of 2023. So, naturally, I was pretty jazzed to check out her performaces on “Saturday Night Live” last night.

All I can say is, Oh. My. God.

So simple and perfect. You really get to see what a great artist and talent she is. She’s like a dark, edgier Taylor Swift. And she has some serious vocal chops, musical talent, and songwriting abilities. I know there’s some who hate on modern music, but artists like Olivia have to prove them wrong.

I can’t wait to see where she goes!

Dirty Deeds Around the Christmas Tree

I love a good mash-up, And Bill McClintock is kind of a master of the art.

His latest gem?

AC/DC’s “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” with Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”.

It is somehow perfect.


There’s your Christmas Cheer for the day!

Also, congrats to Brenda Lee on having the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 this week with “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” 65 years after it’s release.

Also, check out Bill McClintock’s mash-up gloriousness on his youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@BillMcClintockMashups
