Ernest SLAYS Cover of Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make it Through the Night”

Damn.

One of my favorite newer Country artists- Ernest- dropped a rendition of the legendary Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make it Through the Night” on instagram, and it’s pretty much perfection:

I feel like “Damn” is the only appropriate word right now.

In case you’re really behind on what’s hot on the Country Music scene, Ernest is one of the best up-and-coming artists on the scene, and he runs around with Morgan Wallen and HARDY, so you know he’s in the right crowd if you want to be a hitmaker.

But also, he’s just a really nice guy, as evidenced by our interview below:

LOVE his guy, and I think we’re just scratching the surface with what he can do.

The Best CMA Award Performances 2024

The 2024 CMA Awards were last night on ABC, and as always, there were a bunch of live performances. Some great, some meh, and a couple where I was like, “why are they here”? I won’t name names on the not-so-great performances, but I want to give props to who I thought really represented Country Music well.

Ashley McBryde honoring the late Kris Kristofferson with a gorgeous rendition of “Help Me Make it Through the Night”:


Perfection. Kris would be proud.

 

Kacey Musgraves delivered a gorgeous version of “The Architect”, which I feel is one of the best songs of the year. It didn’t pick up any CMA Awards, but it’s up for a bunch of Grammys, so I’m sure she’ll rack up there:


So pure and gorgeous. Country music is lucky to have Kacey, and really, the industry needs to show a bit more appreciation.

 

Chris and Morgane Stapleton “What Am I Gonna Do?”:

These two… POWER COUPLE. I want Morgane to release her own solo album and just blow everyone ou of the water.

You know she would.

 

As usual at The CMAs, there were a lot of great performances, but those were the ones where I was like, “damn.”

 

What was your favorite performance of the night?
