Lainey Wlson is topping the Country charts this week with her latest single (and my favorite of hers) “Wildflowers and Wild Horses”.

But what about the demo?

Woahhhhh…

Songwriter Paul Sikes posted the original demo on instagram yesterday in honor of the song going #1:

Oooooohhh… all the chills right there.

Thank you, Paul, Trannie Anderson, and Lainey Wilson for writing such a fantastic song. Definitely one of my favorites!

Also, Lainey is everywhere these days, and is geting her own Hulu Documentary on May 29th, and she’s opening her own bar in downtown Nashville where the FGL House used to be.

Woman is on FIRE!

George Strait and Chris Stapleton “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”

Oh, Happy Day!

Last night, George Strait hit the stage at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, and debuted a new song with his tourmate- the badassery that is Chris Stapleton- called “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”.

And, of course, it’s REAL Country perfection:

This song makes me want a beer real bad.

I cannot wait to hear the actual studio recording of it! I mean, can you get better than George Strait and Chris Stapleton?

No.

No, you can’t.

Oh, and George also announced his long-awaited studio album called “Cowboys and Dreamers” and that it will be out “soon”.

Well, soon isn’t soon enough!

In the meantime, you can catch the legend along with Chris Stapleton and Little Big Town on the road- get dates and info at https://georgestrait.com/
2024 is shaping up to be a great year for Country music!

Keith Urban and Lainey Wilson “Go Home W U”

Man, we’re getting all kinds of new music today!

Not only did we get the new Miranda Lambert “Wranglers”, but also the Keith Urban/Lainey Wilson collab “Go Home W U”.

Damn. It’s a great day for Country Music!

And “Go Home W U” is the perfect Summer party song:


I’m digging it. Then again, Lainey Wilson can do no wrong in my book.

Keith Urban is working on a new album, and you can bet that will be on it! That being said, so is Lainey.

So, basically, we have a lot of new music coming our way.

Buckle up, Buttercup!

ERNEST Featuring Lainey Wilson “I Would If I Could”

One of my favorite up-and-coming artists in Nahville is ERNEST.

He is incredibly talented as a singer and songwriter, and is funny as Hell.

Yesterday, he dropped a new album called “Nashville, TN’ which has 26 tracks, and a boatload of collabs with everyone from Morgan Wallen to HARDY to Lainey Wilson.

And let me tell you, the track with Lainey on it, called “I Woud if I Could” is what 90’s Country Dreams are made of:


How perfect is that? It sounds like it would have totally fit in on Country Radio in 1994, and that’s a beautiful thing.

I really hope Countey Music keeps trending in this direction. We have some really great artists in Nashville right now, and they are doing the damn thing!

Also, last year, I got a chance to chat with ERNEST and he’s the best:

 

That being said, here’s my interview with Lainey as well.
Because I have to flex:

Have I mentioned that I love my job?
Just a little?

Post Malone Covers Garth Brooks “Friends in Low Places”

Post Malone just threw us another Country Bone with a recent cover of Garth Brooks’ iconic “Friends in Low Places” in the studio while working on his Country project.

And, of course, it’s DAMN good.

Like, really good.


Ok, I hope he releases a cover of that with the guys he’s working on his Country album on, like Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, ERNEST, etc.

That needs to happen, am I right?

Also, Posty needs to stop teasing us, and release his Country project already!

Or at least a full song.

I’m not picky.

Carly Pearce “My Place”

Carly Pearce just released another beautiful break-up song… that’s kind of her thing, of course. Creating beauty out of pain.  If you’re a fan of hers, you know she’s in the aftermath of a divorce from fellow Country star Michael Ray, and she is ending that chapter with a new album called “hummingbird” due out later this Spring. And to get us ready for it, she released a new song off of it called “My Place”, which was written by Carly, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osbourne:

Yup, another winner from Carly.

Except I wouldn’t have left the good wine in his bar. Rookie mistake.

 

“hummingbird” drops June 14th, and Carly is currently on the road with Tim McGraw- get the dates at http://carlypearce.com

Post Malone Teases More New Music!

Post Malone is such a dang tease…

As we all know, he’s going Country (I mean, who isn’t these days?) but at least he’s been wanting to make the move for years- it’s not just because it’s the cool thing to do right now.

Anyhow, he’s been in Nashville working with some big names lik Morgan Wallen, ERNEST, Luke Combs and Billy Strings to name a few, and has been teasing us with clips of his new stuff on social media for weeks now.

His latest tease?

Here ya go:

Anyone else ready for the real thing?

I have to admit, I wasn’t a big Post Malone fan until a few years ago.

He has really impressed me lately with his talent, and his laid back attitude. He honestly seems like a super fun guy.

As per usual, stay tuned…

Lainey Wilson and Chris Tomlin Perform a Beautiful Rendition of “Amazing Grace”

Well, this just gave me all the goosebumps…

This past Good Friday, Lainey Wilson made a surprise appearance at popular Christian artist Chris Tomlin’s show at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville for a performance of “Amazing Grace”, and it was just as good as you would think it would be:

Well, ok!  That song never fails to give me chills, but you put Lainey on it, and it’s just… wow.

Perhaps a Gospel album is in her future?

If not, it totally should be!

Lainey has a big year coming up, and you can get all the tour dates at http://LaineyWilson.com

Beyonce and Miley Cyrus “II Most Wanted”

Beyonce released her new album “Renaissance Act II: Cowboy Carter” yesterday, and there are some pretty cool songs on there.

First, let me remind you that Beyonce isn’t “going Country”. She released a Country-ish album because she can. Just like how Dolly Paron released a “Rock” album last Fall. Because why the heck not?

And really, those who are making hateful comments… well, you’re just proving her point on how some close-minded Country fans can be. Not all, mind you. But a lot. Also, that negative attitude isn’t a good look, but hey, you do you.

That being said, this duet she released with Miley Cyrus called “II Most Wanted”, and it’s a really cool track:


First of all, I like that it’s a proper duet- not just a feature artist on a single line or verse.

Second, I love the feel of the song. And it reminds me of the relationship that I have with my husband of almost 17 years- I love being his shotgun rider through life, and this song makes me think of that.

It just has a cool, chill vibe, and I really enjoyed it.

That’s what music is about, right?

Something that you enjoy listening to and moves you.

Have a great weekend!

Zac Brown Band “Tie Up”

The Zac Brown Band is getting us ready for Summer!

They released a new single called “Tie Up” and it’s inspired by Zac Brown’s favorite place to “tie up” and relax in Lake Lanier, GA.

Now, I’m not a huge boat/beach person- that’s my brother’s thing.  I’m more of a farm/mountain kind of girl, but having spent some time on boats on the lakes of West TN in my teen years, I totally understand the sentiment.

The Zac Brown Band said they wanted to release a feel-good Summer anthem, and I think they delivered!

The ZBB will be kicking off a huge Summer stadium tour wih Kenny Chesney, along with Megan Moroney and Uncle Cracker, and you can get those dates at http://zacbrownband.com
Also, really digging the addition of Caroline Jones to the band’s line up. An absolutely fantastic musican and vocalist, who just so happens to look like a supermodel.

Rude.
