Luke Combs “Five Leaf Clover”

Luke Combs just keeps those fire singles coming!

He dropped his latest “Five Leaf Clover” this morning- because, Saint Patricks Day- and damn, it’s good.

Really good.

Melodic, relatable and true Country.  The game cam line reminds me of my husband- I’ve heard that line many of times!  And I can relate as I have been extremely lucky thus far.  I definitely have a five-leaf clover, and I am so, so appreciative of all the good things I have.  Not trying to brag or anything, but this song just hits home and reminds me of the good things. Family, a career I love, and some amazing friends (and some great fur babies!)

I know I post a lot about Luke, but hot damn, he keeps putting out songs worthy of mentioning.  And I’m sure there will be plenty more off of his upcoming album “Getin’ Old” which comes out in a week- March 24th!

Calling it another chart topper. Watch out Morgan Wallen!

 

 

Tim McGraw “Standing Room Only”

Tim McGraw is just a Country Music staple, and there’s a reason for that. Since the mid-90’s, he has consistently put out great Country music (we’ll just forget about “Truck Yeah”, ok?).  Tim has been promising some new music for the past six months, and he came through yesterday with his new single “Standing Room Only”.

I mean, in the end, that’s all that matter, right?  The impact that you leave behind…

Well done, Tim, and I’m sure we’ll be getting a new album announcement soon!

 

Travis Denning “Strawberry Wine and a Cheap Six Pack”

So, last weekend I saw Travis Denning live at Boot Barn Hall, and got to hang with him before the show. He’s really one of the coolest, most down to Earth guys you could meet, and he told me he was dropping a new single this morning. He asked me if I wanted to hear it, and of course I did! I mean, duh.

I fell in love with it in the first few beats. It’s called “Strawberry Wine and a Cheap Six Pack” and it’s the perfect Summer Country song!

It’s one of those songs that immediately takes me back to 2002.  Summer, beer, riding backroads and frat boys in baseball caps.  Bad decisions and great memories. Wait… that in itself could be a good Country song title, am I right?

 

Also, Morgan Wallen dropped his new album (36 songs. Woah!) today, and Travis co-wrote Track 5 on it called “Devil Don’t Know”.

Here it is being performed live last week:

Travis puts on one hell of a live show- check out this mash-up!

Yeah, I’m fangirling a bit. But I’ve been a fan since “David Ashley Parker From Powder Springs” and after last week’s show and a drink with Travis, I’m even more of a fan.

 

Metallica “If Darkness Had a Son”

I’ve been posting a lot of Country stuff lately, so here’s one for all of my rockers.

Metallica just dropped a new single this morning, and of course it will rock your face.

Presenting… “If Darkness Had a Son”:

Damnnnnn… I enjoyed all 7+ minutes of that!  I was feeding my baby when I listened to it for the first time on my phone this morning, and he was all about it, too.

Raising the kid right.

 

Metallica’s new album “72 Seasons” is out April 14th, and let’s just say it’s promising.

Luke Combs “Joe”

Luke Combs is on FIRE!

Yes, I know I share a lot of his music, but there’s good reason for that.

He’s got a new album coming out on March 24th called “Gettin’ Old” and he keeps releasing fan favorites that will be on the album. And he does NOT disappoint.  His new single “Joe” deals with addiction and overcoming substance abuse, and the daily struggle that so many people can relate to.

True Country Music right here.

It’s such a well-written song on a topic that so many deal with on a daily basis.  Luke has admitted that Country music is full of drinking and partying songs, but there are not many songs out there for those who are on the other end of the spectrum.  I think it’s great that Luke is shining a light on such a difficult topic, and in a genre full of “Let’s get drunk in my truck” songs, it’s good to hear another side of the story.

Luke is quickly becoming one of the most respected artists in Modern Country, and it’s not hard to see why.

 

I can’t wait for his new album! Again, March 24th is when you can check it out.

 

 

 

Luke Combs “Love You Anyway” (Acoustic)

Let’s just be real here: Luke Combs is one of the best people to happen to Country Music.  He’s releasing a new song tomorrow called “Love You Anyway” (a fan favorite) and he just put out the acoustic version, and I’m calling it right now… this is going to be THE love song of 2023.

I’m going to go ahead and say that this is one of my favorites of his. So beautifully written, and I’m loving all the imagery in the song.  Well done, Luke!  This will be on his upcoming album “Gettin’ Old” which comes out on March 24th.

Get ready, you’ll be hearing this one at all the weddings.

Danielle Bradbery Interview

Ten years ago, Danielle Bradbery won “The Voice” and I remember watching the finale (my husband and I totally voted for her) and we had just fallen in love with the sweet 16-year-old aspiring Country singer.  Fast-forward a decade, and Danielle is back with a feisty new sound and look and I am totally here for it.

She was sweet enough to take a few minutes out of here day to chat with me this week about what she’s got happening in 2023.

And have you heard her new single “A Special Place”?

So much yes here.

I love it! Great sound and lyrics, and I think we all have a few people we’d like to send to that hotel, am I right?

 

Really looking forward to see what 2023 brings for Danielle. Such a talent, and just a sweet, down-to-Earth woman.

 

Dolly Parton “Don’t Make Me Have to Come Down There”

First off, today is Dolly Parton’s 77th Birthday!

All hail the QUEEN!

You seriously don’t get a better human than Dolly. I don’t think anyone can argue me this.

AND she celebrated her birthday by putting out a new song called “Don’t Make Me Have to Come Down There”!

How cool is that?  I love that Dolly can tackle a serious subject (Like us humans screwing everything up) with a dash of humor.

And yes, we are messing up big time across the board, and need to get to fixing it.  Dolly says so, and Dolly knows.

 

Can she run for president?  I mean, if Biden and Trump are running again… she’d win no contest.

 

Make it happen, Dolly!

 

Miley Cyrus “Flowers”

Miley Cyrus is kicking off 2023 with one heck of a great new Pop single!

For the longest time, I found her kind of annoying in her “Hannah Montana” days, and of course, the years following. But all twerking aside, Miley has proven herself as one heck of an artist, and I absolutely love her voice.

Her new single “Flowers” just came out, and it’s Pop Perfection.

Ok, so the video is weird, but considering Miley once rode a wrecking ball naked, it’s actually pretty tame for her.

 

“Flowers” is off of her new album “Endless Summer Vacation” which comes out March 10th.

If this song is any indication, I’m thinking it’s gonna be pretty damn good.

Chase Rice “I Hate Cowboys”

Chase Rice released his new single “I Hate Cowboys” and I LOVE it!

Chase has mentioned in the past few months that he’s moving away from the “Bro-Country” sound (Thank God!) and is putting out the music that he actually wants to put out.  His new single “I Hate Cowboys” is definitely a winner.

Oh, and it’s co-written by HARDY, so you know it’s good stuff.

 

This song has me looking forward to his new album “I Hate Cowboys and All Dogs Go to Hell” which comes out February 10th.

Also, I love cowboys.  I’m married to a Cowboy/Soldier combo, and I highly reccomend it.
