Brad Paisley and Miranda Lambert “Someone Else’s Arms”

I’m all here for this!

Brad Paisley teamed up with one of my favorites Miranda Lambert for a Classic Country-tinged duet called “Someone Else’s Arms”- enjoy!

I don’t know about you, but I’m loving the resurgence of the Classic Country sound in modern-day Country Music.

It was much needed…

“Someone Else’s Arms” is a part of Brad Paisley’s “Tacklebox” which is a collection of old and new music that keeps getting added to, like musical dropbox.

We need more in this in 2026!

Taylor Swift “I Knew It, I Knew You”

Ok, this song is adorable.

 

Taylor Swift released her new Country-infused song “I Knew It, I Knew You” from the upcoming “Toy Story 5” soundtrack, and I’m kind of loving it!

How cute is that?

The song was written by Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff, and is inspired by Jessie’s character in the upcoming “Toy Story 5” movie.

“Toy Story 5” hits theaters June 19th.

Get ready parents!

Miranda Lambert “Crisco”

Miranda Lambert has entered her “Country Disco” era, and I am ALL for it.

Miranda recently signed with MCA records, and it looks like she’s going for a fun new sound for her next project.

I’ve always been a fan of Miranda’s since the start, and I’m really enjoying her song that she just released called “Crisco”.

It just makes me so damn happy.


How much fun is that?

With how serious and messed up our world it, songs like this add some much needed glitter to our lives.

No word on a new album, but I’m sure we’ll hear something soon!

Get your party pants pressed.

Carrie Underwood and Motley Crue Performing “Home Sweet Home”

Last night was the Season 5087 (or something like that) finale of “American Idol”.

First off, Hannah Harper won it, as she should.

She was definitely my favorite from what I had seen of the show this past season.

During the finale last night, which was 3-hours long, there were loads of specials guests and performances.

The one I was curious to see was Carrie Underwood with Motley Crue, as they were to perform “Home Sweet Home” together.

I’ve been a Crue fan since I was a kiddo, but Carrie is who owned the stage last night:

Poor Vince Neil.

He tried.

I know he’s had health struggles lately, and kuods to him for giving it a go.
But Carrie.

Holy freaking moly.

Girlfriend can ROCK.

Then again, she did open up for Guns N’ Roses on tour a couple of years ago.

Now you see why.

Let’s get a Carrie Underwood rock album out, like, right now.

Also, do you think those chaps are regulation?

Might want to wear them to the next horse show.

I kid.

Kacey Musgraves and Miranda Lambert “Horses and Divorces”

This totally NEEDED to happen.

Kacey Musgraves released her new album “Middle of Nowhere” this past Friday, and on it, there is a collab with Miranda Lambert called “Horses and Divorces” and I’m kind of in love.

If you weren’t aware, the two were friends, had a falling out over “Mama’s Broken Heart” which Kacey wrote and Miranda recorded and took to #1… not sure of the details, but stuff had gotten a bit messy.

Anyhow, they’re friends again, and they recorded this gem:


So fun! I love horses and drinking… I’m not divorced, but we can still hang, right?

Kacey is on the road this year, and you can get the dates here: http://kaceymusgraves.com

I love that women in Country music are taking over this year.

As they damn well should.

Ella Langley and Morgan Wallen “I Can’t Love You Anymore”

All the YES right here.

Ella Langley- who is pretty much OWNING 2026 so far- just dropped a collab with fellow Country Megastar Morgan Wallen called “I Can’t Love You Anymore”.

I was hoping this would happen, since they’re on the road together on the “Still the Problem” stadium tour this year.

And, yes, it’s freaking good.

How can it not be?

Well, that smells like a #1 for sure.

Will it be on Morgan Wallen’s upcoming project that he’s teasing?

Or maybe the deluxe version of Ella Langley’s new #1 album “Dandelion”?

Stay tuned.

All I know is that 2026 is Ella Langley’s YEAR, and there’s no stopping this train.

Kacey Musgraves “Middle of Nowhere”

Ok, I’m all about Kacey Musgraves getting back to her roots and putting out REAL Country Music again.

Her last couple of albums weren’t my favorites, but hey, you have to experiment.

I get it.

Thankfully, Kacey is back in the Country groove with the title track to her new album “Middle of Nowhere”:

Yesss to ALL of it.

The lyrics, subject matter, unique chord structure… all the things.

And being from literally The Middle of Nowhere, I get it.

I’d rather be there, too.

Kacey Musgraves’s new album “Middle of Nowhere” drops May 1st, and yeah, I’m more than a little excited.

Ella Langley and Miranda Lambert “Butterfly Season”

Yesterday, Ella Langley dropped her highly anticipated Sophomore album “Dandelion”, and it’s just a great as I had hoped it would be.

One of my favorites on the record?

Her collab with fellow baddie Miranda Lambert on a beautiful, uplifting song called “Butterfly Season”.

Ahhhhh! It’s perfect.

You really can’t go wrong with Ella and Miranda Lambert. They did co-write the biggest song of the year, “Choosin’ Texas”, after all.

We all need a Butterfly Season or five, am I right?
Ella’s new album “Dandelion” is out now, and this is just the start of amazing things to come for her.

Lainey Wilson and Brandon Lake “The Jesus I Know Now”

Happy Easter!

I figured that I would share this new song by Christian artist Brandon Lake and Country Superstar Lainey Wilson.

It just came out a couple of days ago, and it’s a perfect song for today.

It’s called “The Jesus I Know Now”, and even if you’re not the most religious person, I feel like many will relate:


What a unique take on a Christian song.

I went to church as a young teen, and perhaps it was that particular church that wasn’t a good fit, but I stayed away from organized religion due to that experience.

But I have always believed, and do my best to live my life as He would want me to. Basically, just trying to be a good human. Which doesn’t always mean you have to be perfect.

Just try your best to be a good person and be kind.

I like how this song is more of a relatable Christian song… growing up it was hellfire and brimstone. Walk the line or you’re not saved.

But now it’s a different relationship. Belief and not fear, if that makes sense.

I hope you and your family are having a wonderful Easter!

Jo Dee Messina Interview!

Eeeeeek!

Ok, not gonna lie… I totally fangirled out when I found out that I was going to get to interview one of my absolute FAVORITE artists in Country Music- Jo Dee Messina- this week!

I’ve been a fan since the first time I had hear “Heads Carolina, Tails California” in the 90’s, and she is back in a big way in 2026.

Good.

Check out what she’s got going on below:

How fun is she? I just love her even more now.

Also, check out her new single “Some Bridges”:

Classic Jo Dee.

And yes, there are some bridges that just need burned down.

She’s not wrong.

“Some Bridges” is off of her first studio album in over a decade “Bridges” which comes out this Summer.
