Avery Anna Rocks an Ozzy Cover With “No More Tears”

Ok, I may just have a new girl crush.

Rising Country singer Avery Anna just slayed the pants off of Ozzy Osbourne’s “No More Tears” and I’m floored over here.

She didn’t do a Country version either- she went full Rock on it, and I’m just over here like “Hell Yeah, Woman!!!!”

Behold:

@avery.anna.musicno more tears

I mean, DAMN, woman.

Now she’s got my attention for sure.

Carly Pearce “Dream Come True”

Carly Pearce just released an honest and heartbreaking new song “Dream Come True”, and it’s one of my favorite of hers so far.

It’s real, and not only shows off her pure voice, but also shows the not-so-fun side of fame and what actually happens when your dream comes true.

It’s not always fun and games, kids.

Oooof.

Yeah, that one floored me the first time I heard it.

It’s a good reminder that just because someone seems to have it all, you never know the reality of what’s behind the sparkle.

And there is a sacrifice- lots of them- that comes with fame.  We mortals seem to forget that.

Also, Carly is not only incredible live, but also a really cool, fun person.

And we share the same weird trait of double-jointed elbows:

@meganontheradio Turns out @Carly Pearce and I have something really random in common… #carlypearce #countrymusic #countryradio #radio #radiopersonality #doublejointed #coloradosprings #fyp ♬ original sound – Megan Vaughan


I hope this new single means a new album coming soon?

I’ll keep you posted.

Chris Stapleton “White Horse” Music Video

Better late than never?

2 years after it’s release, Chris Stapleton finally dropped the music video for “White Horse”, and it’s pretty badass.

It stars Josh Brolin, and is basically a mini-action thriller movie.

Enjoy:


Well, that was… intense.

Love the plot-twist at the end.

Can we get more Stapleton movies? (Love the cameos of him and his baddie wife Morgane)

I think they’re onto something here.

I’d share dates for his 2026  leg of his All-American Roadshow Tour, but theyre pretty much sold-out.

Because, Chris Freaking Stapleton.

 

Kelsea Ballerini “I Sit in Parks”

Kelsea Ballerini released one heck of a new song this past Friday- it’s called “I Sit in Parks”, and I really feel like it’s one of her best yet.

It’s the plight of the modern woman:


That song hits different, right?

Very honest and vulnerable… and having had a child later in life (at 38) after establishing my career, I definitely relate to the subject. Sure, my career isn’t an iota as to what Kelsea’s career is, but still, I get it.

It’s something that so many women struggle with internally… do you get married and have kids first? Or work to fulfill your potential in the working world? Or both?

Both is hard, but it can be done. I’m proof of that.

Lord, it’s a lot of juggling and constantly restructuring, yet extremely fulfilling at the same time.

I hope Kelsea- and every woman in this situation- can find the happiness they long for.

That being said, Kelsea has really upped her game as a songwriter this past decade, and I can’t wait to hear more from her.

Luckily, that’s not a long wait… her new EP “Mount Pleasant” drops this Friday, November 14th.

Glam Metal Version of “Rhinestone Cowboy”

Ok, in instances like this, I am totally down for AI.

A creator called “Dafaq Was That?” just put out a version of Glen Campbell’s “Rhinestone Cowboy” in a glam metal style.

You ready?


You have to admit, that was pretty damn cool.

Of course, I love both Classic Country and Glam Metal, so, of course you know I’m down.

I’ll be rocking out to this all week.

Morgan Wallen “20 Cigarettes” Music Video

Morgan Wallen just released his new single “20 Cigarettes” to Country Radio, and just released a pretty cool video to go along with it:


Yes, Morgan smoked all 20 cigarettes for the video. I’m sure his lungs are so happy just now.

Also, why are his songs so damn catchy?

Not exactly the most brilliant writing, but the hooks and the content… it does resonate with me, being a small-town girl from West Tennessee.

Who hasn’t had a few beer bottles looking ash trays before?

Morgan Wallen is still riding high off of the mega-success of his latest album “I’m the Problem”, and is teasing some things for 2026.

Do I smell another tour?

Stay tuned…

Was Chris Young Wasted on Stage?

Hey, it happens to the best of us.

Chris Young- one of my favorite voices in Country Music- most likely had a few too many prior to taking the stage at “Boots in the Park” in Tucson, AZ over the weekend.

A couple of videos have gone viral on Tik Tok of his performances, and… yeah. Definitely not the live caliber that I expected:

@scdowdy87 When you pay over a hundred dollars to see @Chris Young and he’s drunkedy drunk drunk. WOW #bootsinthepark #tornupcountry #ChrisYoungRuinedMyBirthday@Boots In The Park ♬ original sound – SCDOWDY


And another…

@phebeflagstaffrealtor #bootsinthepark #chrisyoung ♬ original sound – Phebe

Jeepers.

It’s been reported that people were leaving the show early, and I totally get why. Fans are accusing him of being way too drunk to perform, and a few are saying that it’s sound issues.

Honestly, sounds more like a few too many tequila shots to me.

Chris Young has yet to address the issue.

I honestly can’t judge, as when I used to sing in cover bands in Memphis in my early twenties, I have had a few boozy performances myself. I’m just glad social media wasn’t a big thing at the time, and that smartphones didn’t exist.

 

Thank you Baby Jesus for that.

 

Then again, people weren’t shelling out mega-bucks to see me perform. And there was never a cover… so it IS a little different.

I feel like if your fans are paying to see you perform, keep it together for that hour/hour and-a-half that you’re on stage.

Hopefully this is a one-off for Chris, and that he keeps the Whisky shots till after the show.

 

Still… one of my favorite voices for sure… and I hope this is just a bad night.

It happens!

Morgan Wallen “I Got Better” Music Video

Morgan Wallen just released the music video for his latest single “I Got Better”, and I have a feeling the ladies will be all about it…

Someone has been hitting the gym, am I right?

I think the appeal of Morgan Wallen as a sex symbol is that he looks like your average guy. Seriously, he looks like he could be my husband’s cousin or something.

Also, his latest album “I’m the Problem” is by far the biggest-selling album of 2025 so far. The only person who can beat him is Taylor Swift- who drops her new album “The Life of a Showgirl” on Friday.

It’ll be fun to see who ends up winning the sales battle. It’s going to be close.

 

Ella Langley “Wish I Didn’t Know Now”

Ella Langley is quickly becoming one of the best new Country artists on the Nashville scene, and this version she just released of the Toby Keith classic “Wish I Didn’t Know Now” proves why she’s here:

Oh damn girl…

I’ve always loved this song (90’s Toby Keith was IT), and Ella made it her own, and seriously, this should just go on and be a radio single.
