Coors Light Super Bowl Commercial Feat. Lainey Wilson

With the Super Bowl on Sunday, some of the highly-anticipated commercials are dropping early, like the Budweiser Clydesdales and the Uber Eats featuring Jelly Roll. Now Coors Light released their commercial featuring Lainey Wilson and LL Cool J:

Honestly? I was kind of disappointed, as Lainey was only shown for 2.5 seconds tops. I figured she’s have more of a presence in the commercial, since she’s the new face of Coors Light. But whatever.

I really thought she’d be the main star, like Jelly Roll was in his.

Still, even a split second cameo in a Super Bowl commercial is a huge deal, and I’m glad Lainey is getting some major world wide love.  She certainly deserves it!

That being said, I prefer Coors Banquet, and will be chugging that while cheering on The Chiefs Sunday night.

GO CHIEFS!!!

Kacey Musgraves “Deeper Well”

I’ve been waiting on this for a minute.

Kacey Musgraves- one of my favorites- just put out a new song, and it’s soooo good.

It’s called “Deeper Well” and it just dropped an hour ago.

It’s pretty, haunting, and is basically an update on Kacey’s life lately.

Apparently, she doesn’t wake and bake anymore. That’s probably a good call.

Ok, the video, as per usual with Kacey is a bit acid-trippy, but I really like the song, and the fact that she is returning to her Country roots (Yay!).

What I find interesting is that Country legend Emmylou Harris also has a song called “Deeper Well”, and I’ve always felt like Kacey is a modern-day EmmyLou.  Am I wrong here?

Kacey also announced her new album by the same name (“Deeper Well”) and it will be out March 15th, so we don’t have to wait long!

Terry Fator “We Are the World” Puppet Tribute

Terry Fator- in case you weren’t aware- is a ventriloquist, comedian and singer who has won “America’s Got Talent” and has his own Las Vegas show.  The man is crazy talented in so many ways, and he just did a Puppet Tribute to “We Are the World” that left me speechless. That, my friend, is hard to do.

Check this awesomeness out:

I wasn’t sure wha to expect, but that exceeded any and all expectations that I had going in.

I’m a HUGE fan of “We Are the World”, and when I saw this pop up on my YouTube watch list, curiosity got the best of me, and I’m so glad that it did!

Also, I highly suggest you check out the We Are the World documentary “The Greatest Night in Pop” on Netflix now!

Lainey Wilson Performing “I’m Just Ken” at Grammy Pre-Party!

Lainey Wilson had a pretty great weekend, which included winning her first Grammy for Country Album of the Year for “Bell Bottom Country”, and getting to take the stage at the exclusive Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala. No big, right?

Seriously, I am so happy for all of Lainey’s success, and she seems like a super fun, down-to-Earth person who would be awesome to party with.

This is exepmlified by her performace of “I’m Just Ken” from the “Barbie” movie soundtrack at the Clive Davis party:

@billboard More than #Kenough ???? @Lainey Wilson performed “I’m Just Ken” with #MarkRonson & #AndrewWyatt at the Clive Davis Pre-#Grammys Gala. #livemusic #laineywilson #ryangosling #barbie #barbiethealbum ♬ original sound – billboard

Here’s another view:

@itstetrisbish Wow! @Lainey Wilson performer “I’m Just Ken” at Clive Davis’ Grammy Party! #laineywilson #barbie #imjustken #clivedavis #grammys ♬ original sound – TETRIS

Isn’t she just the best?

Honestly, I think I like that version better than the original.

Maybe that should be on her next album?

Lainey’s got a super busy year ahead of her, including a lot of tour dates- check ’em out at http://laineywilson.com

Miley Cyrus Performs “Flowers” at 2024 Grammys

The 2024 Grammy Awards were last night, and I feel like is was one of the best nights in Grammy History! (Just my humble opinion over here)

Miley Cyrus won her first ever Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance for “Flowers”- as she should have- and soon after took the stage, and NAILED her performace.


Miley is the real deal.

She sounded great, looked amazing, and overall the performance was just so fun, and gave major Tina Turner vibes.

Miley has come a looooonnnnnggg way.

I remember being merely annoyed by her in the past, but she has more than proven herself as both an artist and human, and woman is KILLING it!

Seriously, good for her.

I can’t wait for what’s next!

Luke Combs and Tracy Chapman Peform “Fast Car” at The Grammys

I was waiting for this for the past year…

Luke Combs released his fan favorite cover of Tracy Chapman’s icnic “Fast Car” last year, and it became a runaway hit on not just the Country charts, but on the Top 40 and Adult Contemporary charts as well. As it should- it’s a great version!

Well, the original artist and the Country star who brought the song back to the forefront of Pop Culture finally collided at The 2024 Grammy Awards tnight, and it was beautiful:


How great was that?

Both great artists in their own righs from totally different worlds… and they came together on the Grammy stage tonight.

This made my heart so damn happy.

I’ve always loved the original, and Luke does a great job infusing new life into an already classic song.

Well done.

Gabby Barrett Feat. Luke Combs “Dance Like No ones Watching”

Country singer Gabby Barrett released her new album “Chapter & Verse” yesterday, and after hearing songs off of it like her latest single “Glory Days” and “You’re My Texas”, I was really looking forward to hearing her latest effort.

I’m definitely NOT dissapointed in the least!

She’s worked with so many great artists on this album, including Luke Combs who wrote “Dance Like No Ones Watching” and even gave his voice to the project:


Welp. My heart just melted.

You’re going to hear that song at ALL the weddings this year.

How amazing is Gabby’s voice on that song? And I love that she’s staying true to herself as an artist. She says that her music reflects her life, as a wife, mother, and Christian, and I love that.

Family values, people. It’s a good thing.

Gabby’s “Chapter & Verse” is out now, and is worth adding to your 2024 playlist.

Jelly Roll Super Bowl Commercial

Jelly Roll is having a major moment right now, and he’s now the star of the “Uber Eats” Super Bowl commercial!

That’s how you know you’ve made it, right?

It’s only 15 seconds (hopefully we’ll get a longer one next Sunday) but it’s hilarious.

I love that Jely Roll can laugh at himself, and yes, he does regret the tattoos.

This is why you don’t tattoo your face, kids.

One day, you’ll be like. “WTF was I thinking?????”

But Jelly is owning it, like everything else lately.

Oh, and Lainey Wilson has a Coors Light SB commercial coming, so stay tuned for that!

Also, GO CHIEFSSSSS!

Keith Urban “Straight Line”

It’s been a couple years since we’ve had new music from Keith Urban, and that all changed this morning.

Keith just dropped his first new song in 2 years called “Straight Line”, and it’s going to be the perfect Spring/Summer jam this year.

Yeah, that’s super catchy.  High energy, feel-good, fast paced, with some good guitar action near the end… I’m sure this will be another big hit for Keith!

I can totally see myself driving down the road jamming out to this one. It’s an instant mood lifter,

It almost sounds like it’s got cross-over potential for Adult Contemporary radio as well.  Look, there’s nothing wrong with genre-crossing. I have a lot of listeners that complain, but I feel that music doesn’t always have to be categorized. If it’s good, it’s good. Who cares?

Plus, anytime a Country artist crosses over, that just brings more attention to the Country genre, which is never a bad thing.

And yes, Keith has a new album in the works.

I’ll keep ya posted!

Billy Joel “Turn the Lights Back On”

I was so excited this moring to get to hear the new Billy Joel!

As a fan since I was a kiddo, I was definiely excited to hear his first new release in 31 years. His last was “River of Dreams”, if you can believe that.  Now, Billy has been on the road and performing almost nonstop, but we haven’t gotten anything new until about thirty minues ago.

Here is Billy Joel’s  “Turn the Lights Back On”:


Ahhh… yes. I love it. Classic Billy Joel.  That voice, piano, and strong lyrics… my man still has it!

Oddly enough, Billy didn’t want to sing on the new track that he wrote. He was hoping for someone else like Adele to do it, who is co-writer Freddy Wexler thought of, but in the end, Billy ended up singin on it, and thank goodness he did!

We needed new Billy Joel in this world.

So, yes, loving the new song, and I can’t wait to see Billy Joel perform it at The Grammy Awards Sunday night on CBS!

Also, I shall leave you with one of my favorite Billy Joel songs of all time below:

There’s two of them. I can’ choose right now.

Or… this…

Gah… I forgot you could smoke indoors in  public at one point. Billy makes it work.

Such an icon.
