New Kelly Clarkson Is Here!

Kelly Clarkson is back with some vocal bangers!

She’s been teasing new music for quite some time… we knew she would have plenty of material after her messy divorce from Brandon Blackstock, and according to her two new singles “Me” and “Mine” which just came out this morning, well, thing must have been REAL bad.

“me”

 

“mine”

Damn, those pipes, though!

I’m definitely more of a fan of her upbeat songs (that’s just me) but there’s no denying her vocal prowess and raw emotion.

She and Adele need collab, like, yesterday.

More to come on her new album “Chemistry” on June 23rd!

Little Boy NAILS Morgan Wallen Song

Like him or not, Morgan Wallen is one of the hottest artists out there right now. And lets be real, his music is pretty freaking catchy. It’s ok. You can admit it.

Anyhow, this video has gone viral of a mullet-rocking little boy singing along to “Last Night” and he pretty much nailed it.

I always love videos of kids singing to their favorite songs. It reminds me of me when I was little and would put on full-on performances to Madonna and Paula Abdul.  Sadly (or maybe not!) social media and smart phones weren’t a thing back then.

Anyhow, love the kid’s vibe and his matching mullet with his dad.

I bet this will be my life in the next few years with Brandon, except without the mullets.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute at CMT Music Awards

Last night my husband and I were watching the CMT Music Awards, and I ended up going to bed a little early. It was a long weekend, and I was just done.  While I was getting ready to fall asleep, my husband had to run upstairs and tell me that I missed a badass performance (Of course I did) featuring lots of legends doing a tribute to one of my favorite Classic Rock bands Lynyrd Skynyrd.  I had thought I missed it, but apparantly not!  So I had to look up the performance, and damn.

I mean, Slash, Billy Gibbons, Paul Rodgers, Cody Johnson, Warren Hayes, Chuck Levall,  Wynona Judd and LeeAnn Rimes?

Hell. Yes.

Having seen Skynyrd several times, and always enjoying the show they put on, this made my heart happy.

Also, Slash. And Cody Johnson. That’s all you really need right there.

Sadly, after the recent passing of Gary Rossington, there are no original surviving members of the band.  But their legend will live on.

There will always be someone yelling “Play Freebird” until the end of time, so there’s that.

Seriously, though, loved this!  Good call, CMT.

Rock and Country is ALWAYS a good mix!

Conner Smith Interview and New Single “Creek Will Rise”

Conner Smith is one of the hottest up-and- coming Country acts right now, and his new single “Creek Will Rise” came across my desk recently, so I gave it a listen, and I was immediately hooked!

I’m thinking “Song of the Summer” material for sure.

Plus, Conner was cool enough to call in and chat about the song and all he’s got going on in 2023, including a tour with Luke Bryan!

 

 

 

 

Seriously, I can’t wait to hear more from Conner, and I think he’s got one heck of a future ahead of him as a singer and songwriter.

Ed Sheeran “Eyes Closed”

Ed Sheeran just dropped his new singles early this morning, and it just makes my heart happy.

It’s like he doesn’t know how to disappoint, and I’m fine with that!

Off his upcoming album “Subtract” here’s the first single “Eyes Closed”.

Annnnnddd there’s another #1 for Ed.  Emotional, catchy, great hook and lyrics, beautiful vocals… all the stuff Ed is made of.

I’ve always respected him as an artist, and he’s the real deal. He’ll be one of those that decades down the road, he’ll still be a constant force in music.

 

Ed’s new album “Subtract” comes out May 5th, and with a lead single like this, I can’t wait for the rest!

Ashley McBryde SLAYS Rolling Stone Cover!

I’m a huge Rolling Stones fan (Stones > Beatles, always!) and I’m a huge Country Music fan as well.

So, when I saw that “Stoned Cold Country”- an album featuring some of Country’s best artists, like Brooks and Dunn to Eric Church to Lainey Wilson- covering Rolling Stones classics, you know I had to go check it out RIGHT THEN!

One of the highlights?

Ashley McBryde covering “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”

Dudeeee… she just nailed the HELL out of that!

My 1 year old was jamming out in his play pen when I was streaming it. He’s clearly got excellent taste!

Check out all the covers on “Stoned Cold Country” out now.

There’s some pretty good ones on there!

Luke Combs “Five Leaf Clover”

Luke Combs just keeps those fire singles coming!

He dropped his latest “Five Leaf Clover” this morning- because, Saint Patricks Day- and damn, it’s good.

Really good.

Melodic, relatable and true Country.  The game cam line reminds me of my husband- I’ve heard that line many of times!  And I can relate as I have been extremely lucky thus far.  I definitely have a five-leaf clover, and I am so, so appreciative of all the good things I have.  Not trying to brag or anything, but this song just hits home and reminds me of the good things. Family, a career I love, and some amazing friends (and some great fur babies!)

I know I post a lot about Luke, but hot damn, he keeps putting out songs worthy of mentioning.  And I’m sure there will be plenty more off of his upcoming album “Getin’ Old” which comes out in a week- March 24th!

Calling it another chart topper. Watch out Morgan Wallen!

Axl Rose and Carrie Underwood Rocking Out!

I’m really envious of Carrie Underwood.

Not just those pipes and those legs, but getting to perform with Axl Rose (One of my Rock Idols) several times recently? I mean, DAMN, girl.

#RESPECT

I love that Carrie has this side of her. I always wrote her off as a prissy girly-girl, but damn can she rock.  Turns out she’s a big fan of Classic Rock and metal, and she can certainly deliver the goods.

It’s really cool to see the “other” side of Carrie.  This combined with her love of fitness and red wine, well, hot damn, maybe we can be friends after all!  She’s been gaining some serious cool points with me lately.

 

Oooohhhh… maybe a Rock album is in her future?

I would support the fire out of that.

Lady Gaga is the QUEEN!

I don’t watch the Oscars.

I’m not that into movies, and let’s be real, until this year, very few of the nominated films were ones that the average person would recognize.  Also, the politicizing of anything and everything Hollywood has really turned me off of it.

So, yeah, totally didn’t watch last night. I watched a rodeo instead on CBS Sports.

But this morning while doing my usual coffee and radio show prep routine, I saw that Lady Gaga DID perform at The Oscars after all (she originally wasn’t planning to) and being a fan of hers, I had to check the performance out.

WOAH.

I absolutely LOVE that she not only slayed the vocals (as per usual) but that she just washed her face and showed up completely make-up free and unadorned.  I actually like her better this way. Just raw talent.

Can we normalize women NOT being all glammed up all the time in Hollywood?  Because it’s exhausting.  It really is.  Plus, noone looks like a Kardashian in real life. Not even they do.

I just really love this performance, and think it’s one of Gaga’s best.

Just wanted to pass it along in case you’re like me and give zero flips about the Oscars.

 

Is there anything she can’t do?

Tim McGraw “Standing Room Only”

Tim McGraw is just a Country Music staple, and there’s a reason for that. Since the mid-90’s, he has consistently put out great Country music (we’ll just forget about “Truck Yeah”, ok?).  Tim has been promising some new music for the past six months, and he came through yesterday with his new single “Standing Room Only”.

I mean, in the end, that’s all that matter, right?  The impact that you leave behind…

Well done, Tim, and I’m sure we’ll be getting a new album announcement soon!
