Ethan Burdick shares his debut EP, The Treehouse, out now, November 13th on all streaming platforms. Learn more here and listen below.
Breakout country star, Ethan Burdick is one to look out for. The singer-songwriter has amassed a loyal fanbase, even before his first officially debut project. Today, the rising artist shares his nine-song, debut EP, The Treehouse.
At the heart of the EP is standout track, “Maybe,” which finds Burdick caught between the possibility of moving on and the undeniable feeling that their relationship is worth fighting for. According to the singer the song and the project as a whole is reflection of where he’s at in his life. “Maybe is such a special song to me. My girlfriend and I were on a two-week break to see if things were going to work out and debating back-and-forth whether this was something we wanted to fight for,” shared the artist in a recent press release, adding, “I chose Treehouse because it represents a lot of things to me. It’s nostalgia, but it also represents the beginning of something. You have a treehouse when you’re a kid, but it grows with you. It’s rooted in something stronger than yourself, and it becomes a place where you talk about everything—heartbreak, love, internal struggles, fun days, and memories.”
Across the project, Burdick showcases his heart, his telnt, and everything in between. The Treehouse is an incredible debut project and an exciting first step for the singer-songwriter. Make sure you give it a listen!

Who is Dylan Marlowe? The singer-songwriter joined us to chat about his journey to country music. Get to know the rising star here…
Dylan Marlowe // Photo credit; Spidey Smith
Quick Facts:
Full Name – Dylan Marlowe
Birthdate – 6/9/1997 Hometown – Statesboro, Georgia
Current City – Nashville, Tennesee
Musical Influences – Eric Church, Sum 41, Good Charlotte
Label – Sony Music Nashville
Current Single – “Here Lately” + Dylan Marlowe album out now!
The Beginning:
Back in 2022, we introduced you to a singer-songwriter that we believed was about to blow up, Dylan Marlowe. We’d argue that he’s become a staple in the genre since. Dylan Marlowe is the real deal. We recently caught up with the singer-songwriter again, perfectly aligned with the release of his brand new, self-titled album, which released last week. Keep reading to l earn more.
Marlowe grew up in Statesboro, Georgia, where baseball was his number one passion until music found its way into his heart. “I had a buddy who had a guitar and I didn’t really get into music until my senior year of high school I think, in 2015,” began the singer. “Once I began writing my own music and playing guitar, that’s when I really fell in love,” he continued.
Although he didn’t start playing until then, music was always around him. His dad had been a drummer in a band before starting a family and introduced him to rock and pop punk, including Blink-182, Linkin Park, and Nickelback. His mom, meanwhile, listened to country artists like Kenny Chesney and Keith Whitley. Looking back, it’s easy to see how both sides eventually found their way into his sound.
“I’d say that’s kind of where I got my storytelling from, and then a lot of the melodic stuff that I do comes from that rock background,” he shared. Marlowe always wanted to be an artist, but when he moved to Nashville in 2018, he initially saw songwriting as his way into the industry. Inspired by artists like Cole Swindell and HARDY, who had built their careers through songwriting, he started writing and making connections around town.
The Turning Point:
After arriving in Nashville, Marlowe began finding his footing with the help of fellow artist Trey Landon, who helped him move to town and introduced him to songwriter Dallas Davidson, the first person he signed with in Nashville. Social media gave Marlowe some creditability, but it was his cut with Jon Pardi that gave him another important opportunity to establish himself in town.
As his career developed, though, the singer started to feel the limitations of trying to fit into the industry’s expectations. He had ideas that didn’t necessarily fit what people were looking for, and eventually, he decided he didn’t want to keep putting those ideas aside. That frustration became part of the inspiration behind 80 Acres. “I just got tired of trying to fit everything into a box,” he explained.
Instead of continuing to pitch songs that weren’t getting the response he wanted, Marlowe decided to record them himself with his band. The approach was different from the typical Nashville process, too. Rather than trying to cut several songs in a single session, they gave each song its own day to come to life.
“We cut every song, like, one song a day, no more,” he said. What started as a way to make music without worrying about industry expectations has grown into something of its own. 80 Acres has already taken the stage alongside artists like Treaty Oak Revival and Old 60, and Marlowe is looking forward to bringing the project to more stages.
Today:
Flash forward to today, Marlowe has taken the same creative freedom he found in 80 Acres into his solo music. Recently, the singer-songwriter released his thirteen song sophomore album, a self-titled project. Rather than going into the studio with a predetermined tracklist, Marlowe and his band started with two songs they knew they wanted to record and let the direction of the project develop naturally.
“Every song was kind of based on, like, the last song,” he explained. Some songs didn’t make the final cut because they no longer fit the direction the record was taking, while others found their place as the sound came together. It’s a process he enjoyed enough that he said he’d likely approach future projects the same way.
The album also gives Marlowe room to lean further into the pop-punk influences that have always been part of his musical identity. He’s especially excited for fans to hear “Dishes” and “Mother Of A Memory.”
“Dishes” is particularly special because it’s one of only two songs on the album that he didn’t write himself. Written by Jeffrey Jordan of The Band Camino, the song stood out immediately. “I always said I never would do it,” Marlowe said of recording outside songs. But when he heard “Dishes,” he knew he had to cut it. “Some of the words that he uses… I would have never thought of that. It just sounded so cool and so good that I just knew, like, oh, I got to cut this song.”
Looking ahead, Marlowe is working toward a headline tour next year, with more 80 Acres shows and music also in the works. He’s also navigating a major new chapter at home after welcoming twins earlier this year. With a new album, two musical projects, and plenty of plans taking shape, there’s a lot happening, but for now, he’s focused on continuing to make the music he wants to make and seeing where it takes him.

Dylan Marlowe shares new self-titled album, Dylan Marlowe, out now, November 6th on all streaming platforms. Learn more here and listen below.
Dylan Marlowe is unapologetically himself. The singer-songwriter has a knack for weaving high-energy instrumentals with honest and relatable story-telling lyrics. With his self-titled sophomore album, Marlowe is at his absolute best. The new record features thirteen songs and is officially out now.
While chatting with Country Swag, the singer shared how organic the record truly was. “We actually didn’t have a list before we went into cut. We just knew the first two we wanted to cut, and so we went in and cut the first two songs, and we were like, all right, let’s just sleep on these and see what we want to cut tomorrow. And that’s how we did it every day,” he shared. “We kind of just based it off of that, which is fun, because a lot of times you whiteboard, like, here’s 13 songs we’re cutting this week. Go. But there’s a lot of freedom in just knowing, like, all right, well, we don’t know what we’re doing the next day, but we know what we’re doing today, and let’s do it the best we can.”
Marlowe’s new project is the perfect reintroduction or introduction into his talent. Personally, we think you should check out the last track, “Dishes,” but the whole record is incredible. Make sure you give it a listen!

Who is Carolyn Miller? The singer-songwriter joined us to chat about her journey to country music. Get to know the rising star here…
Carolyn Miller
Quick Facts:
Full Name – Carolyn Miller
Birthdate – January 18th
Hometown – Massapequa, New York
Current City – Long Island, New York (but in Nashville frequently, so I call myself an honorary resident
Musical Influences – Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Adele, Faith Hill, Idina Menzel
Current Single – “Save It” (as of date of article: 11/02/2026)
The Beginning:
Today we’re doing one of our favorite things and spotlighting a New York-based artist who we absolutely adore. We sat down to chat with Carolyn Miller all about her career, her new music, and of course, everything in between. Keep reading to learn more.
For Miller, being on stage has always been part of the plan. Born and raised in Massapequa on Long Island, New York, she began acting professionally at just eight years old, building a career in entertainment that included film, television, commercials, theater, and voiceovers. “I came out of the womb wanting to be on stage,” she shared.
A true talent from the time she was little, the songstress was made for the stage and telling stories in many different variations. While she loved Carrie Underwood after seeing her win American Idol, her love for country music came later; however, her love for musical theatre was evident from an early age.
She attended college at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee College of Music, where she majored in musical theater. But while acting gave her plenty of opportunities to perform, she found herself wanting more creative control over her work.
“I hated having my power in someone else’s hand,” she explained. During downtime between projects, Miller turned to YouTube, posting covers simply because she missed performing. She wasn’t looking to build a fanbase or launch an artist career, but viewers began asking when she would release original music.
“As the stuff started to grow, I sort of started getting this itch,” she shared. “The second I started continuing down this path, I became obsessed with this.”
The Turning Point:
Miller began performing at open mics around New York and connecting with producers as she explored songwriting and developing her own sound. She knew that if she wanted to be taken seriously as an artist, she needed to put in the work and learn the craft.
Country music became an even bigger part of her life during college, when a roommate introduced her to artists like Jason Aldean and Kenny Chesney. From there, she started exploring the genre more deeply.
“Country music was where my heart was, and I loved the storytelling aspect of it,” she shared, adding, “My acting background more or less was how and why I loved country music because of the storytelling and the authenticity of the genre.”
Eventually, Miller began traveling to Nashville once a month to write and make connections. “I started going to Nashville once a month, and I fell in love with it,” she said. “I knew there was something there that I needed to keep discovering. When COVID hit, she shifted more of her focus online, continuing to grow her presence and share her music with listeners.
Today:
Flash forward to today, Miller is releasing her most honest music to date. Most recently she released a six-song EP that is self-titled, born out of a true discovering for who she is and the music she wants to share with the world.
“When I was starting out in Nashville, I would talk about being from Long Island and having a background in theatre, and I got a lot of pushback for it,” she explained. “But also it helped keep me different.” For a while, she felt the pressure to hold back certain parts of herself in order to be taken seriously. That perspective has changed “The second you really start owning your truth and owning your story is when you start to breakthrough,” she shared.
That mindset helped shape her self-titled EP. The project reflects the music she wants to make and the stories she wants to tell, without feeling the need to fit into one particular box. “That’s why I wanted to self-title my EP,” she explained. “This was the music I wanted to make and I’m really proud to do this. This is the music I want to make. It’s just my truth.”
The collection includes six songs, three of which Miller co-wrote and three that came from outside writers. For her, the most important thing was making sure each song felt personal. The songs touch on different chapters of her life, from working through a relationship to one she wrote while pregnant with her daughter, as well as a song inspired by the headspace she was in during college. Together, they offer a look at the experiences that have shaped her.
“I’m really upbeat and positive, and I want everyone to win, not just in the industry, but in life, and I love being a hype woman for everyone,” she shared. “That’s the thing that I’m most proud of.”
Stay tuned for even more from the songstress!
