Morgan Wallen unveils unreleased song “Thought You Should Know” for fans on his social media. Listen to the brand new track below.
As he makes his way back into the limelight, Morgan Wallen continues to share unreleased songs with fans that showcase his growth. Over the weekend, the singer unveiled his latest number, “Thought You Should Know,” which he co-wrote with Miranda Lambert and Nicolle Galyon. Although written previously, Wallen shared that he felt that this was the best time to preview the song with his fans.
Moreover, inspired by his relationship with his mother, the singer digs deep on this track. Wallen proves that he is aware of his falls. Wallen continues to pour his heart out on his songs. It is similar to the vulnerability in tracks like “Livin’ The Dream.” Wallen showcases the human side of fame on this song. Secondly, we predict that it will be a hit with fans as soon as it is released.
“What’s going on mama // Something just dawned on ya // I ain’t been home in some months // Been chasing some songs and women // Making some bad decisions // God knows I’m drinking too much // Yeah I know you’ve been worrying about me // You’ve been losing sleep since 93’ // I thought you should know that all those prayers you thought you wasted on me // Must of finally made their way on through”
Overall, with the success of Dangerous: The Double Album, it is hard to believe that Wallen will stay quiet for long. It is clear that fans are going to support him on his journey. The future is uncertain, but it seems Wallen is exerting his staying power, one lyric at a time.

Adam Sanders’ new album, What If I’m Right is available now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new music.
Rising singer-songwriter, Adam Sanders has released his new album What If I’m Right. The 13-track album, each song co-written by Sanders, shows off not only his talent as a writer but shows his well-rounded talent as an artist.
The album starts out upbeat with the song “All About That”. Written by Sanders, Craig Campbell, and Jacob Rice, it’s a track about enjoying a night out outside and enjoying the moment with a significant other. With warmer weather on the horizon, this song is perfect for summer date night.
“Just One” and the title track “What if I’m Right” are written by Sanders, Rice, and Lynn Hutton. Each song has qualities that just about every listener can relate to. “Just One” is about not giving up on a relationship and asking for that one sign that it isn’t over. “What If I’m Right” shares a great dual message. At first listen, you may think it is about two people falling in love. However, the real message is don’t be afraid to put everything on the line and follow your dreams. You can do whatever you set your mind to, you just have to have the passion to get there which Sanders clearly has.
The singer-songwriter shows us who he is as a person throughout the album. Not only does he show us his fun, upbeat self, he lets us into his serious side as well as his connection with religion. “Bible Versus” is a great example. Written by Sanders, Ben Stennis, and Brice Long, this track is for anyone going through a tough time and for them to learn that it’s okay to handle situations in the wrong way as long as you learn from your mistakes.
Showing his love for Nascar, the song “Daddy Jesus and Earnhardt” is one to play before every race. Written by a bunch of collaborators including Sanders and Cole Swindell, the track shows how Nascar isn’t just a sport. It’s a bond that brings families together.
Overall, the album is a great listen and truly shows how hard-working, dedicated, and talented Sanders is. He has written numerous songs for artists including Cole Swindell’s number one “Ain’t Worth the Whiskey” and Dustin Lynch’s Hell of a Night”. Now it’s Sanders’ time to shine and boy does he! We can’t wait to see what’s next for his career.

Ross Copperman’s new EP, Somewhere There’s A Light On is available now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new music.
GRAMMY-nominated singer-songwriter, Ross Copperman has been one of Nashville’s biggest songwriters over the past eight years, accumulating 29 number-one hits for artists such as Brett Eldredge, Darius Rucker, Kenny Chesney, Dierks Bentley, and many more. These songs include “Lose My Mind,” “If I Told You,” “Get Along,” and “Living,” to name a few.
While songwriting has been his bread-and-butter, Copperman also has an extensive catalog of his own pop-heavy material. On this project, Copperman teamed up with other big-name writers in the business such as Shane McAnally, Ashley Gorley, Emily Weisband, and even pop-star Ed Sheeran to create five brand new tracks.
“I’ve always liked to write songs to live in any world and not necessarily be too specific to genres,” Copperman shared in a recent press release. “It feels like pop has really been influenced by country writing in the last few years.”
The EP begins with the faith-based tune, “Not Believe.” Copperman admits that it can sometimes be hard to believe there’s something bigger than us out there, referencing God — especially when things are not going your way. However, he meets this wonderful woman who restores his faith and makes him believe. It starts off as a slow piano ballad, but has a large build-up in production when the chorus comes around.
“How can I hurt so long? Finally, come up to breathe // And see the best part of my life standing right in front of me // And not believe”
“Electricity” is a more fun, upbeat track in which Copperman praises this woman, calling her ‘electricity,’ as she lights up his love and his life. He compares her to a strike of lightning because they both rarely happen twice. In “Therapy,” the singer claims he doesn’t need doctors or pills to get him through dark days because this girl’s love is his form of therapy. His smooth, romantic vocals shine on these tracks. Both of these songs were co-written by Copperman, Johnny McDaid, and Ed Sheeran.
Copperman uses the title track as a PSA to what seems to be one particular individual. He is reassuring this person that when life gets you down or you are finished chasing your dream, come home to somewhere there’s a light on, aka, himself. This can be classified as EDM, as there is a bass drop after the chorus.
“When you’re lost, when you’re cold // When you can’t see the road // When the sky runs out of gold and you need a ride home // Take your time, feed your soul // If you ever find yourself alone // And you need a place that feels like home // Somewhere there’s a light on”
Copperman shows his flirty side in the final song, “Holdin’ You,” as it is about the physical aspect of love. The singer ignores the advice of others, who tell him they are moving too fast and that if they want this relationship to last, they have to wait. He responds with “we don’t know what tomorrow is holding. I just know I don’t wanna quit holding you.”
When Copperman writes hit songs, it may be expected of him to just pass them on to another artist. But these tunes were clearly so unique and personal to him that he had to keep them for himself. Although it leans pop, Copperman certainly has five very special tracks here.
“I’m so happy and filled with such a profound sense of joy and optimism for the future. I’ve always felt like my purpose in writing songs that I record would be to share joy and encourage somebody who’s down to know there’s a light on somewhere for them,” Copperman said. “I’m inspired and also, feeling a little vulnerable which feels good. I’m excited. It’s my next chapter.”
Somewhere There’s a Light On Tracklist:
1. “Not Believe” (Copperman, Jordan Reynolds, Emily Weisband)
2. “Electricity” (Copperman, Ed Sheeran, Johnny McDaid)
3. “Therapy” (Copperman, Sheeran, McDaid)
4. “Somewhere There’s a Light On” (Copperman, Shane McAnally, Josh Osborne)
5. “Holdin’ You” (Copperman, Ashley Gorley, McAnally)

Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts offers the first collection of his solo career, filled with incredible collaborations, breath-taking vocals, and an inspiring message. One on One is available now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new music.
Gary LeVox is not only the frontman for one of the most influential and successful groups in country music history, Rascal Flatts, but he is also one of the most impressive vocalists and has one of the most identifiable voices in all of music. His name quite literally means, “The Voice” and it couldn’t be more deserving.
Founded in 2000 with bandmates Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney, Rascal Flatts scored 17 No. 1 singles, earned 40+ award show trophies (making them the most awarded country group of the last decade), and sold over 23 million albums and more than 11 million concert tickets. The group celebrated its farewell with Twenty Years of Rascal Flatts: The Greatest Hits in 2020, along with their hit single “How They Remember You”. After a 20 year career with Rascal Flatts, LeVox is pursuing a solo career and has just released his first solo project: One on One.
One on One combines two of LeVox’s biggest passions – music and faith. LeVox’s debut song “The Distance” embodies that mission, expressing the power of belief which is tailor-made for the COVID-19 era. The song is about resilience and LeVox feels the timing of the song is perfect. He shares that, “‘The Distance’ was the first song written for (his) solo chapter… with the struggles and battles so many have gone through this past year and how they’ve taken over people’s everyday lives, it just felt like the true song of hope we need.” Made for fans of both country and contemporary Christian music, “The Distance” is one of five tracks featured on LeVox’s Christian collection.
On the remaining four tracks, LeVox leaned on help from his ‘congregation’ to explore the power of faith and the calling of a higher power. Contemporary Christian hitmakers MercyMe join LeVox for “A Little Love”, GRAMMY-winning gospel talent Jonathan McReynolds for “Never Forget”, LeVox’s daughter Brittany for “While I Wait”, and country-rap trailblazer BRELAND for “All I See”.
On the collection, LeVox shares: “One On One is my passion project and I have wanted to do this body of work for as long as I can remember. I feel so honored to get to collaborate with such greatness throughout this project. BRELAND is a dream to work and sing with, as is the iconic MercyMe. Jonathon McReynolds, one of the greatest singers of our time and my dear friend, wrote a perfect song for us. And for my daughter Brittany and I to get to sing a song that Tauren Wells helped craft just completed the collection. I couldn’t be prouder of this project, and the songs that we recorded. This is gonna be an amazing new season and I just hope everybody enjoys it as much as we did making”

Kasey Tyndall just released an honest and emotive new song titled “Middle Man” which reflects on growing up with divorced parents. Available now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms, take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new song.
There are few things we love more than a badass female in country music! Singer-songwriter Kasey Tyndall fits the bill. A long-time Nashville artist, performing with the all-female group the Song Suffragettes and writing with prolific songwriters in the industry, Tyndall has finally been given her chance to shine. Today the singer released a brand new song, “Middle Man.”
Written with fellow country music badass and singer-songwriter, Lainey Wilson, “Middle Man” is a true experience about growing up with divorced parents. Although not intended to be a sad song about divorce, there are definitely elements of the song that will feel a bit tender for those who have experienced the heartbreak of a parent’s split. According to Tyndall though, she hopes it reminds listeners that you are influenced by where you come from regardless of what your family dynamics look like.
“I was too young to understand // I was a little girl // And the middle man // I got a taste of rock n roll // Swear I learned to talk to Jesus // And I made best friends with the road // I got real good // I got real good at leaving”
We appreciate the songstress’ grit, honesty, and integrity that are so evident on this track. “Middle Man” is one of those songs that everyone will tip their hats to, mainly for its pure honesty. Of course, Tyndall’s voice also shines, showcasing her vulnerability at the same time. She is definitely one to look out for!

Lauren Davidson’s new song, “Thinking About You” is available now, May 14th, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new song.
We love supporting our local New York/New Jersey country artists, and Lauren Davidson is one of our favorites. Fresh off the heels of dropping her fiery single “BACKFIRE,” the songstress keeps the momentum going with her newest jam, a song called “Thinking About You.”
Bringing her killer vocals and sassy personality to centerstage, Davidson speaks her truth on her new single. According to the songstress, the song was inspired by a real-life breakup. “Thinking About You” embodies all the feelings we feel, when we go through a break-up and are over missing that person. Allowing her powerful boss vibes to come out, the singer confidently decides that she is done wasting her time thinking about an ex.
“Baby, You know you drive me crazy // But I won’t let that phase me // Cause it’s a waste of time // Maybe, I was just too blind to see, you were playing hide and seek // Well love’s a gamble and I rolled the dice // Guess what I’m finally through // Thinking about you”
The anthemic sounds of the new song is one of our favorite things about it and about Davidson’s talent as a whole. The song is the perfect jam for anyone who is needing a wake-up call to really start healing and move on from a past relationship. If you need a pick-me-up, just add “Thinking About You” to your girl-power anthems playlist!

HARDY’s new cover of Puddle of Mudd’s, “BLURRY” is available now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the song.
Tapping into his Rock influences, singer-songwriter and one of our favorites, HARDY, decided to release his own version of “BLURRY” with a lyric video to go with it! First made famous by rock band, Puddle of Mudd, “BLURRY” is one of those songs that every music lover has heard at least once. HARDY’s version commemorates the 20th anniversary of the track, releasing under Big Loud Records Rock/Alternative imprint, Big Loud Rock.
HARDY has always been one of those artists that we believe can sing anything, and this cover proves it. Tapping into the grittier side of his voice, the singer shares the angst that we all feel when we listen to the song. It will be interesting to see how country music fans relate to this side of HARDY.
“You could be my someone // You could be my scene // You know that I’ll protect you // From all of the obscene // I wonder what you’re doin’ // Imagine where you are // There’s oceans in between us // But that’s not very far”
HARDY has always been open about wanting to collaborate with artists across different genres, so we’d love to see more killer collaborations from him, as we anticipate a possible new volume of Hixtape. Until then, fans can look forward to HARDY performing this cover live, when he opens for Jason Aldean on the ‘Back In The Saddle Tour 2021’ this summer.

Lily Rose’s new song, “Remind Me Of You” is out now, May 21st, on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the new track.
Newcomer, Lily Rose is already a bonafide superstar according to TikTok users, and pretty much anybody who takes a second to give her music a listen. The singer went viral with snippets of her song “Villain” time and time again, hitting over 1 million views in only thirteen hours. Following the recent release of her song “Overnight Sensation,” Rose debuted her latest track “Remind Me Of You,” out today.
Continuing to allow fans access to the more vulnerable parts of her, Rose shares a story of love and love loss on “Remind Me Of You.” As the singer grapples with the all too familiar feeling of wanting to get over someone, but not being able to shake your feelings for them, she delivers a song that feels catchy and relatable, yet deeply personal.
“She don’t remind me of you // You think that that was a good thing // It’s sad, but it’s true // Should be cool, but it just ain’t // Girl you were all that I wanted and that’s why falling in love with her is so hard to do // She don’t remind me of you”
Rose shared in a recent press release that “Remind Me Of You” is her favorite song that she released so far, and we can see why. The melody is instantly stuck in your head after just one listen, and you can definitely feel what Rose is agonizing over on the track.
It is only a matter of time that more and more fans catch on to Rose’s one-of-a-kind talent. Her soulful vocals and vulnerable lyrics are exactly what country music needs. We are already big fans of the singer, and cannot wait to see how the mainstream fanbases react to her music!
