The Harvard Opportunes “Beyonce Medley”

Sheesh.

Talk about talent!

The Harvard Opportunes- the A Cappella group at, of course, Harvard is one of my favorite things this year.

I mean, yeah, it’s Harvard, so of course, the talent will be next level… these are some of the best vocalists in the country, and you’ll see what I mean after this recent Beyonce medley that they performed:


Woah. Seriously, I am so impressed.

I have always loved a cappella groups, as it’s really a special skill to be able to not only sing, but provide vocal instrumentation as well.

The Harvard Opportunes have my heart.

Miranda Lambert Feat. Parker McCollum “Santa Fe”

This past Friday, Miranda Lambert released her 10th studio album, and her first on her new label Republic Records called “Postcards From Texas”, and I feel like it’s one of her best works yet.

And that’s saying something, as Miranda consistently puts out great Country music, and has been for the past two decades.

Yep, it’s been that long.

One of the standout songs on “Postcards From Texas” is Miranda’s collab with fellow Country artist Parker McCollum on a track called “Santa Fe”.

I’m getting major George Strait vibes on this one:


Thank you, Miranda Lambert, for always delivering great Country music.

Just a simple, pure, perfect Country song.

Can we get more of this, please?

I’m so loving that the real, true Country sound has been making a comeback.

David Gilmour and Daughter Romany Perform “Wish You Were Here”

This was really cool to see.

David Gilmour- of the iconic band Pink Floyd- crashed his daughter Romany’s London pub gig last week, and they performed a gorgeous version of Pink Floyd’s classic “Wish You Were Here::

How cool was that, though?

Can you imagine your dad being David Gilmour. Like, whatttttt????

Romany Gilmour has clearly inherited some of her father’s stellar genes, and is a talented singer/songwriter herself. Check her out https://www.instagram.com/romanygilmour/
Also, Pink Floyd is life.

There will never be another band like them.

Miranda Lambert “Bitch on The Sauce”

Miranda Lambert never, ever disappoints.

She is one of the best in the business, and her 10th studio album “Postcards From Texas” proves why she has been a Country Music staple for 20 years.

Yes, it’s been 20 years since her breakout single “Kerosene” was released.

Feel old yet? You’re welcome.

Miranda Lambert’s latest album is basically a sonic roadtrip through her home state of Texas, and here are some of my favorites off of the album:

 

“Bitch on the Sauce”:

Oh, man. What woman hasn’t been there? I love it!

Miranda is really a master at getting lyrics just right to evoke whatever feeling she is trying to convey.

She teamed up with Jaren Johnston for this track, and they nailed it!

 

“Armadillo” :

And just like that, I want to get high with an Armadillo.

I think this might be one of my favorites on the album.

 

“Looking Back on Luckenbach”:


It’s the steel guitar for me on this one. Texas Honky Tonk Perfection right there!

Miranda wrote this with Shane McAnally and Natalie Hemby, so there was no way she would go wrong there.

 

And Miranda has a collab with Parker McCollum on the album as well, which is a nice treat.

“Santa Fe”:

Really, the entire album is fantastic, and I feel like it’s Miranda’s best yet. And that’s saying something, since she’s always put out great prejects.

I’ll be jamming out to this for a while.

Drinking on horseback with Miranda is still on my bucket list… not gonna lie.

Kate Hudson “Voices Carry” Official Music Video

Earlier this year, Kate Hudson crossed over into the music industry, and while I wasn’t overly impressed by her debut original material, I was impressed by her talent.

Kate Hudson has a really good, strong voice, as well as a great stage presence, as evidenced by her cover of Til’ Tuesday’s “Voices Carry”, which she just released the offical video for:

I think she did a great job on that song, and let me tell you, as a former half-assed cover band singer, that song is NOT an easy one to do. Amy Mann is an incredible vocalist, and pulling off this song is no easy feat.

Just in case you were wondering how she could handle it live, wonder no more:


Damn. Get it, woman!

Honestly, I’d love for her to put out a covers album of 80’s/90’s hits.

I think she’d do a bang up job on something like that.

In the meantime, you can check out Kate’s debut album “Glorious” out now.

Geroge Strait “Cowboys and Dreamers”

Happy Friday!

What makes Friday EVEN better?

New George Strait!

The KING of Country Music released his 28th Studio album called “Cowboys and Dreamers” and of course, it’s pure Country Gold.

First off the title track- “Cowboys and Dreamers” is perfect:

 

BUT there’s also a collab with Chris Stapleton on there called “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”, and really… you can’t go wrong when you combine those two:


“Honky Tonk Hall of Fame” reminds me of the early 80’s Country- just fun and rowdy- and again, add Chris Stapleton to the legend that is George Strait, and again- pure Country perfection!

I’m just happy it’s still a thing.

Check out “Cowboys and Dreamers” out now, and get tour dates here: https://georgestrait.com/

Ella Langley Feat. Riley Green “You Look Like You Love Me” Video

Ella Langley is one of the ones to watch in Country Music, and this music video for her song with Riley Green “You Look Like You Love Me” will just solidify her in the industry.

First of all, I love the song- it’s pure Classic Country- and the video is perfect:


Does anyone alse think Riley Green needs to be a character on “Yellowstone”, or at least on a spinoff?

He’s totally giving off Spencer Dutton vibes.

“You Look Like You Love Me” is easily one of my favorite Country songs of the year so far, and I have a strong feeling you’ll hear a lot more from Ella Langley in the future.

Anyone else super happy that the Classic Country sound is making a comeback?

It’s a beautiful thing.

Miranda Lambert “No Man’s Land”

Have I mentioned how much I love Miranda Lambert?

Maybe? Once or twice?

This new song of hers is just another reason why she is one of the best in the business- check out “No Man’s Land”:


Seriously, Miranda never misses. Her voice, delivery, and ability to evoke emotion through song is almost unmatched.  So far, I have loved every song she has put out off of her upcoming album “No Man’s Land”, which comes out September 13th.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars “Die With a Smile”

What happens when you combine Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars?

Easily one of the best songs of the year. Maybe the decade.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars deliver the vocal heat with “Die With a Smile”:

Yeah, that doesn’t have to grow on me at all.

But then again, how can you go wrong with those two?

Both artists are working on new music, and this collab definitely bodes well for whats to come.

Kudos!!!
