Chappell Roan Goes Country With “The Giver”!

Unless you’ve been living solely on another planet, you’ve heard about the incredibly talented Chappell Roan.

You know… the creative mind and killer voice behind Pop hits like “Good Luck Babe”, “Hot to Go”, and “Pink Pony Club”, and, of course, the winner of the coveted Grammy for “Best New Artist” this year.

She’s kind of a badass.

Well, the dropped her “Country” song today, and even as a 100,000 %  straight woman, I can appreciate it.

Check out “The Giver”:

Catchy, right?

Basically, she’s saying she can do it better than any man can.

I don’t doubt it.

And, Country traditionalists… don’t lose your mind. She only released a Country song for fun. She grew up in rural Missouri, and is pretty well-versed in the Country lifestyle. So, yeah, she gets a hall pass.

She has confirmed this week that she is staying in Pop music, but she wanted to drop a Country song because she loves the genre, and it’s what she grew up on.

Fair enough.

The woman can sing and perform her ass off, and is really a breath of fresh air on the Pop scene.

Oh, and she gets the job DONNNNNNEEEEE.

What more do you want?

HARDY and Nate Smith: Nobody Likes Your Girlfriend

Country music is all about collabs lately, and I have a feeling the guys are going to LOVE (and totally relate to) this song.

Country/Rock artist HARDY has teamed up with fellow Country artist Nate Smith for a new banger called “Nobody Likes Your Girlfriend”, and both the song and video are hilarious.

Especially as we all know a guy with a girlfriend that no one likes, am I right?


So much yes right there… and I love that Kevin James is in the video as well.

As one of those girls who always had a bunch of guy friends, even I can relate to this song.

And guys, let me tell you, if no one likes your girlfriend, bail.

In my years of experience- I’m 42 now- it NEVER works out.

Both HARDY and Nate Smith are on the road this year, and you can get dates and info at https://hardyofficial.com/home/ and https://www.natesmithofficial.com/.

Also, having seen HARDY live before, I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

Miranda Lambert “Run” Music Video

Damn, I love me some Miranda Lambert.

She just released the music video for her new single “Run”, and of course, it’s gorgeous, and chock full of horses and badass Western fashion.

Enjoy:

LOVE!

Then again, I love most of what Miranda does. She’s an incredible songwriter and vocalist, as well as a fellow horsewoman who likes her wine.

I’m telling you, we should be friends.

She is hitting the road this year with Morgan Wallen (which will be an AMAZING show), and you can get your tour dates here: ://www.mirandalambert.com/

Randy Travis “Horses in Heaven”

Well, this was a nice surprise this week.

Randy Travis has released a new song called “Horses in Heaven” with the help of AI (Randy had a stroke years ago), and it’s times like these that I am grateful for what AI can do.

Randy Travis is a lifelong horseman, and being a horse person myself, I love this song so much.

Give it a listen below:


Here are the full lyrics:

“Horses In Heaven”

There are horses in Heaven
It says it in the Bible
Right there in Revelation
Red and pale, and black and white
Elijah left this world
On a chariot of fire
When Jesus comes back, he might just borrow
The silver for the night

There are horses in Heaven
So I bet that God’s a cowboy
Heading off into the sunset
In a big white Stetson hat
Every time you hear the thunder
It’s just a posse full of angels
Riding those horses up in Heaven
Golden saddles on their backs

When the roll is called up yonder
And they put me out to pasture
I hope there’s a pretty palomino
Just beyond the gate
I’ll see my dad and Pawpaw
You know that they’ll be waiting
To pull a plug of Red Man
And take out across the plains

‘Cause there are horses in Heaven
Yeah, I bet that God’s a cowboy
Heading off into the sunset
In a big white Stetson hat
Every time you hear the thunder
It’s just a posse full of angels
Riding those horses up in Heaven
Golden saddles on their backs

We’re all gonna get there
In a big long Cadillac
Once you cross that river
You won’t wanna cross it back

‘Cause there are horses in Heaven
So you know that God loves cowboys
Heading off into the sunset
In a big white Stetson hat
And every time you hear the thunder
It’s just a posse full of angels
Riding those horses up in Heaven
Golden saddles on their backs

There are horses in Heaven
And thank the Lord for that”

Ahhhh! My heart!
I especially love the line about the Pretty Palomino, as my mare and heart horse is a Palomino.
Definitely one of my new favorite songs this year.
Again, I’m all for AI when it’s used for things like this!
Randy Travis is on the road this year with James Dupre, and you can get the dates here: http://RandyTravis.com

Morgan Wallen “I’m the Problem”

As promised, Morgan Wallen released his new single “I’m the Problem”- the title track to his new album- this morning.

And yeah, it’s pretty damn good:


Seriously, Morgan has the Midas Touch these past few years, and if he can keep himself out of trouble, who knows how far he can go?

He’s got a new album and tour coming, and you can stay up to date with all he’s got going on at http://morganwallen.com

Love him, hate him, or even if you’re not a huge Country fan, you kind of have to admit that he’s got something.

I can’t put my finger on it, but he has it.

Kane Brown and Katelyn Brown “Do Us Apart”

This past Friday, Kane Brown released his latest album “The High Road”, which is full of collabs- which is the thing lately- he’s got everyone from Brad Paisley to Jelly Roll on his new release. And, like his last album, he has tapped his incredibly vocally talented wife Katelyn for two duets. One- called “Do Us Apart” is really pretty, and has more a traditional Country sound than a lot of Kane Brown’s songs.

I’m just in love with Katelyn’s voice. She was an aspiring singer prior to marrying Kane, and holy smokes, she’s good!

Now, the song reminds me a lot of Cody Johnson and Carrie Underwood’s duet that’s on the radio now called “I’m Gonna Love You”, but I almost like this one better. It just has a cool vibe to it. And honestly, I like Kane Brown’s voice and style better when he’s keeping it more traditional and not getting too Pop/Hip Hop with it. But that’s just what I prefer style-wise, as 90’s Country is what I grew up on.

Another song I like on Kane’s new album is his latest radio single “Backseat Driver”, which as a toddler mom, I can totally appreciate:

Again, a more traditional Country sound with this one. Yes, I’m old school.

Check out Kane Brown’s new album “The High Road” out now, and get more info, tour dates, all the things at https://www.kanebrownmusic.com/home/

Teddy Swims “Guilty”

New Teddy Swims?

Ain’t nobody gonna be mad about that.

Teddy Swims became majorly mainstream in the past couple of years, thanks to his massive hit “Lose Control” which was (and still is) everywhere.  And he proved that he’s no one-hit wonder with more hits like “The Door” and “Bad Dreams”, which are also getting major airplay. His sound is perfect- incredible bluesy rock vocals that seem to have no limit, plus great, catchy songs that pretty much everyone can enjoy.  I always say that he’s what would happen if Chris Stapleton and Jelly Roll had a baby.

Anyhow, Teddy has a new album out called “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)” and here’s the new single off of it called “Guilty”:

Pretty damn good, right?

Teddy’s vocals are in another universe.

Yeah, this guy isn’t going anywhere, and that’s a good thing.

Luke Combs Debuts New Song Live in Auckland!

Luke Combs is currently on the road overseas with Jordan Davis, Mitchell Tenpenny and Lane Pittman, and they just did a stop in Auckland, New Zealand where Luke debuted a new song.

The song- which it seems is titled “Ain’t No Cowboy” – it’s a true heartbreak banger, which is what Luke does best:

@ogbunningssnag #lukecombs #jordandavis #lukecombstour #2025 #mitchelletenpenny ♬ original sound – OGBunningsSnag


Ok, Luke needs to release that, like, yesterday.

Hopefully this means new music from Luke Combs soon?

Meghan Patrick “Golden Child”

I have a feeling that 2025 is going to be Meghan Patrick’s year.

Now, Meghan, hailing from Ontario, has been on the scene for quite some time, and has been getting a lot of attention as of late for her gritty and real Country sound.

She released her album “Golden Child” back in October, and the title track has cracked the Mediabase Top 50, and I have a feeling you will be hearing a lot more of it on your radio soon.

Check out “Golden Child” below:

Pretty dang good, am I right?

Here are the full lyrics:

“If I could send a letter back in timeTo younger me in her wilder daysA daydreamer with her head in the skyAnd always learning the hard way
I bet she’d think she knows better than meBut that’s just part of her charmNah, you couldn’t tell her anythingNothing stubborn as her and her heartBut I’d tell her while you’re reaching for the stars
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to loseThe same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child
They’re gonna love you for the things you doBut not for who you areSo don’t go trading in your ride or diesFor the cool kids down at the bar
The time will come when you fall in lustAnd it’ll look like loveUntil it knocks you right down in the dustBut know that you’ll get back upYeah, know that you’re more than enough
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah)The same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside (inside)‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah)The same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside (inside)‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, childEverything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
If I could send a letter back in timeTo younger me in her wilder daysI’d let her know that she’s doing just fineAnd everything’s gonna be okay”
Songwriters: Joey Hyde / Aaron James Eshuis / Meghan Sylvia Patrick
Seriously, though, such a great song, and I can definitely relate.
Heck, I think anyone who has lived just a litle bit of life can.
As I mentioned earlier,  I have a strong feeling that 2025 is going to be her year… get ready!

Morgan Wallen “Smile”

Well, this was a nice surprise this morning.

Morgan Wallen just dropped a new single called “Smile”, and I think it may be one of my favorites of his.

Written by Morgan, Ernest, Rocky Block, John Byron, Ryan Vojtezak and Luis Witkiewitz, I have a feeling this will be another #1 hit.

Because, like it or not, that’s all Morgan Wallen seems capable of producing these days.


Damn.

What I like about this song- aside from the sound and subject matter- is that it really shows of what a good vocalist Morgan is, which can sometimes be hidden with other hits like “Last Night” and “I Had Some Help”.

This definitely bodes well for more solid stuff in 2025.

And now this will be in my head all day, which isn’ a bad thing.

Have a Happy New Year!
