Lauren Watkins: ‘Introducing: The Heartbreak’ – EP Review

/in , , , /by

Lauren Watkins releases her new EP, Introducing: The Heartbreak, out now, November 17th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new project here.

For country singer-songwriter Lauren Watkins, her personal highs and lows have inspired her newest release, Introducing: The Heartbreak. On her Big Loud Records / Songs & Daughters sophomore project, the follow up to April’s Introducing: Lauren Watkins, she offers a clever continuation of that debut project.

“Introducing: The Heartbreak is basically the next step in introducing myself and my music to the world,” shares Watkins in a statement. “First, I released Introducing: Lauren Watkins, which was just saying, ‘Here’s me, here’s where I came from, what I’m influenced by.’ This is the next step, going even deeper into who I am, what I’ve gone through, how I think about things. It’s truly introducing the heartbreak I’ve experienced, which will eventually roll out into something much bigger.” 

Featuring six new tracks, all of which she co-wrote with heavy hitters like Nicolle Galyon, Jessie Jo Dillon, Ashley Monroe, Rodney Clawson, and more, the EP takes listeners on a journey through the end of a relationship. Produced by Joey Moi, the project takes listeners through the emotions of a heartbreak, ranging from jealousy, acceptance, denial, and blame.

The Nashville native kicks things off with “Fine County Line,” a catchy and twangy pop country tune about a will-they-won’t-they relationship. “It’s a real fine county line In between your lips and mine // This kiss I know you want it // But that fence we’re stuck here on it,” She sings. “Halfway off the map // Falling hard and walking that // Real fine county line // I think it’s ‘bout time We crossed it.”

Likewise, the uncertainty continues on “The Table,” offering a unique spin on an old phrase, as a couple ponder all of the options on the table before them. On the stirring ballad, she sings, “The way he looked at me // Halfway held my hand // Didn’t have to say a thing // For us to understand // What was on the table.”

Jealousy pairs with confusion on tracks like “Jealous of Jane” and “Fly on the Wall,” both which find the singer grappling with her emotions over not wanting someone in her life, but not completely accepting that he’s moved on. On “Fly,” she trades verses with Jake Worthington, whose pristine baritone perfectly complements her emotive twang. Meanwhile, on “Jealous of Jane,” she muses that she “don’t want him back, but I don’t want him to want her.” The track is a quintessential mid-tempo country song, full of  fiddle and steel for an especially special moment.

The Ole Miss grad joins forces with Carter Faith on “Cowboys on Music Row,” which is an immediate highlight of the project. Here, the pair muse over the sorry state of today’s cowboys and country singers, longing for the days of the “redheaded stranger” or a “real rodeo man.” It’s a modern take on Paula Cole’s “Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?,” as they lament “Where oh, where oh, where did they go, There ain’t no cowboys on music row”

“We wrote ‘Cowboys On Music Row’ with our friends. Sitting around a tv, watching old videos of our old favorites. We looked at each other and thought “they really don’t make ‘em like they used to,” and this song is what followed,” Watkins shared on Instagram. “Although I’m proudly in the era of *new country* I’ll forever keep trying to make the old *Cowboys On Music Row* proud.” 

Lastly, “Stuck In My Ways” finds Watkins embracing who she is. It’s a 90’s tinted celebration of all of her best qualities, take ‘em or leave ‘em. “I keep a six pack in the Fridge // And a rocking chair out back // I keep a light on, on the porch // And a key under the mat // I don’t park in that spot where you parked your Chevrolet // I ain’t sitting ‘round hoping you’ll come back someday // I’m just stuck in my ways // Yeah I’m stuck in my ways.”

For Lauren Watkins, Introducing: The Heartbreak shows that the singer-songwriter has no plans of slowing down. In fact, she’s taken a heartbreak and translated it into art.

Introducing: The Heartbreak EP Tracklist:

  1. Fine County Line (Lauren Watkins, Rodney Clawson, Nicolle Galyon)

Brian Kelley Shares Brand New Song “How We’re Livin'” Out Now

/in , , /by

Brian Kelley releases new song, “How We’re Livin'” out now, November 17th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.

One half of the groundbreaking country duo, Florida Georgia Line, Brian Kelley continues to build his
solo discography with his latest release, “How We’re Livin’.” Although most of his music to this point has
taken place at the beach, the Florida-native returns to the country side of his roots in this southern-rock
anthem.

Produced by Dann Huff and co-penned with Micah Carpenter, Jimmy Robbins, and Mark Trussell, this is
a classic FGL track both musically and lyrically. Backed with heavy electric guitar, pounding rhythms, and
sampled hip-hop beats, Kelley proudly embraces the small-town lifestyle and promises to keep the old school family traditions alive and well.

“‘Round here its family tradition // It’s a long, long line of lovin’ how we’re livin’ // Can’t help it it’s a
country boy condition where we spend our Johnny Cash on huntin’ and fishin'”

“How We’re Livin’” is an authentic anthem celebrating family tradition and country living,” Kelley shared
in a recent press release. “Most people know my love for the beach, but I’ve been in a cowboy hat since
birth… I’m constantly inspired by everything around me, and these lyrics really do reflect a genuine
connection to my roots and what’s influencing my forthcoming debut album.”

This song follows the sentimental “Dirt Cheap” and his top 30 radio single,” “See You Next Summer.”
Kelley has a handful of shows left in 2023, including an acoustic show on Long Island at Mulcahys Pub in
Wantagh. For tickets, head to his website!

Country music newcomer, Dasha is showing fans and the genre what she is all about! Her last single, “Even Cowboys Cry” showcased her sensitive side and her writing prowess. Her brand new song, out today, “Austin” puts her grit and honesty on display yet again.

Dasha’s new song, “Austin” is a mid-tempo anthem that is laced with bravado, strength, and impressive, yet relatable storytelling. Throughout the song, Dasha expresses heartbreak and a broken relationship in a way that feels empowering. The “your loss” mentality will have any listener ready to stomp their boots and dance and sing all night to the catchy track.

“Empty cans and I’ll be damned // Your shit was never packed // Did your boots stop working // Did your truck break down // Did you burn through money // Did your ex find out // Where there’s a will, there’s a way // And I’m damn sure you lost it // Didn’t even say goodbye, I just wish I knew what caused it // Was the whiskey flowing // Were you in a fight // Did the nerves come get you // what’s your alibi / I made my way back to LA // That’s where you’ll be forgotten // in 40 years, you’ll still be here // Drunk, washed-up in Austin”

Dasha is proving herself to be one to look out for. Her unique style, storytelling, and tempos make for an enticing artist. We look forward to seeing what Dasha has coming down the pipeline next!

The Frontmen: ‘Familiar Faces’ – EP Review

/in , , , /by

The Frontmen release their brand new EP, Familiar Faces, out now, November 17th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new project here.

Back in March, The Frontmen officially signed with BMG/BBR Music Group. The trio comprised of Richie McDonald (formerly of Lonestar), Tim Rushlow (formerly of Little Texas), and Larry Stewart (Restless Heart), are absolute veterans in the country music industry. Combining their talents into an exciting act is exactly what we all needed. Today, The Frontmen release their brand new EP entitled Familiar Faces.

The brand new project boasts six songs including, The Frontmen editions of famed songs, “I”ll Still Be Loving You,” “God Blessed Texas,” and “Amazed.” On both “I’ll Still Be Loving You” and “Amazed” The Frontmen breathe new life into the already classic songs. On “God Blessed Texas,” they prime a song that is fun and made for the live show. High-energy and uptempo, the song is hard not to sing and dance along to, even after just one listen.

Familiar Faces’ tracklist also has three new songs. “I Need You” is a familiar mid-tempo song that pays homage to the early 00’s country landscape that we all still feel nostalgic about. On “It Was Always You,” The Frontmen bring their iconic voices to centerstage. The song feels reminiscent and like coming home upon listening. It also feels stage-ready, clearly something that The Frontmen seemingly know a thing or two about. Additionally, “Left Their Mark” tells a poignant story. It touches the edges of sacrifice, losing someone you love, and the incredible military men and women who put their lives on the line each and everyday for all of us.

The Frontmen truly have something special with their Familiar Faces EP. Each of the six songs speak to the legacy that these three men bring to the table, while bringing new music to the country genre. The record is both refreshing and nostalgic at the same time.

Familiar Faces EP Tracklist:

  1. I Need You
  2. I’ll Still Be Loving You
  3. It Was Always You
  4. God Blessed Texas
  5. Left Their Mark
  6. Amazed

Chris Stapleton: ‘Higher’ – Album Review

/in , , , /by

Chris Stapleton shares his new album, Higher, out now, November 10th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new music below.

With one of country music’s most recognizable voices, Chris Stapleton is back and better than ever on his new album, Higher, out now. Produced by Stapleton alongside his wife, Morgane, and Dave Cobb, the new 14 track collection was recorded at Nashville’s RCA Studio A.

For the seven time and reigning CMA male vocalist of the year, Higher marks the follow up to 2020’s Starting Over. The new LP, released via Mercury Nashville, allows the bearded wonder to continue doing what he does best: release incredible country music that puts his voice at the forefront.

The album kicks off in high gear with “What Am I Gonna Do?,” a stirring mid-tempo ballad that perfectly pairs Stapleton’s rasp with Morgane’s crystalline background vocals. Here, he finds himself wondering what comes after heartbreak ends. “What am I gonna do when I get over you? // What am I gonna be when you’re just a memory?” He asks in his famous growl. “What am I gonna drink? // When I don’t have to think about what I’m gonna do without you.”

While he may be heartbroken on the album opener, he celebrates love and romance on tracks like the airy “Trust,” the poignant “It Takes a Woman,” the proclamation of eternal love on “The Day I Die,” and the baby-making jam, “Loving You On My Mind.” “Trust” is an immediate highlight with its twinkling acoustic guitar and light percussion as Stapleton croons “If you trust in forever // Trust this heart of mine // We could lose ourselves just like lovers do // If you trust in me, like I trust in you.”

Likewise, “It Takes a Woman” reads much like a love letter to his wife, proclaiming all of the ways in which she makes him better. Musically, it’s a sparse ballad that gives Stapleton’s voice room to breathe and shine. In a similar vein, the album’s title track shares much of the same message, as he describes the ways in which she elevates him, settling into his rarely used and incredibly impressive falsetto.

On “Think I’m In Love With You,” Stapleton proclaims his maybe-love over a 70’s tinted bass line, while “The Fire” finds him longing for a lover over bongos and light percussion. “Oh this fire is real,” He growls, voice laced with desperation. “You’re so close to me, but always out of reach.“

Stapleton turns things up on Southern rock tinted tracks like “South Dakota” and “Crosswind,” with the latter finding him running from something. “Trying to keep all the rubber on 65 // Might not make it out alive,” He growls. “White knuckling the wheel just to survive // Caught in the crosswind.“ Meanwhile, on “Dakota,” he finds himself where “trouble ain’t hard to find.”

“The Bottom” finds the Kentucky native experimenting musically, with its melody and instrumentation having a sunny and almost 80’s pop country vibe. Blended seamlessly with depressing lyrics and Stapleton’s downtrodden vocals, the pairing creates the most unusual juxtaposition. It shouldn’t work, but it does.

“Weight of Your World” finds the singer-songwriter willing to take on someone else’s burden when it becomes just too much to bear. While it could easily be a love song, it could be applied to anyone struggling in someone’s life. “Give me your darkest hour, Give me your deepest fear,” He sings.  “Just give me a call and I’ll be here, Give me the bars and chains that won’t set you free, Give me the weight of your world, And lay it on me  “

Higher ends with “Mountains on my Mind,” a stunning and threadbare track that was written solely by Stapleton who also played the song’s lone acoustic guitar. Here, he’s exceptionally vulnerable, battling his demons and seeking solace. “I think I’ll find a long white line, curse the world and leave it all behind,” He sings, his powerful voice softening alongside the instrumentation. “I’ve been trying all this time and still can’t climb the mountains of my mind.”

On Higher, much like his other albums, Chris Stapleton is unapologetically himself. He sings the way he sings, he looks the way he looks, he writes the way he writes, and it’s that authenticity that wins over legions of new fans year after year. While it may seem impossible, this LP continues to elevate the superstar, taking him even Higher.

Higher Tracklist:

  1. What Am I Gonna Do
  2. South Dakota
  3. Trust
  4. It Takes A Woman
  5. The Fire
  6. Think I’m In Love With You
  7. Loving You On My Mind

Zac Brown Band: ‘From the Road, Vol. 1: Covers’ – Album Review

/in , , , /by

Zac Brown Band shares a new album, From the Road, Vol. 1: Covers, out now, November 10th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new music below.

Known for their blistering live performances, intricate harmonies, and incredible instrumentation, Zac Brown Band has always been a special group to see in concert. While the group has previously released two live albums, 2007’s Live from the Rock Bus Tour and 2010’s Pass the Jar, they are back with their biggest live endeavor to date, From The Road, Vol 1: Covers.

On the 13-track album, ZBB bends genres, effortlessly floating from country to rock to rap with a little bit of pop, standards, and yacht-rock thrown in. Recorded over 11 years at an array of iconic venues, including London’s Wembley Arena, Chicago’s Wrigley Field, and Boston’s Fenway Park, the album also pairs the band with collaborators like John Mayer, Marcus King, Darrell Scott, Mark O’Connor Band, and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler.

Released on frontman Brown’s own label, Home Grown Music, the live album kicks off with the Queen hit everyone knows and can sing along with, “Bohemian Rhapsody.” It’s the perfect introduction to the album, allowing the band’s harmonies to soar over instrumentation that spans genres over the course of one song.

“Neon” with John Mayer is the collection’s oldest performance, recorded in Nashville in 2012. Here, the guitar virtuoso and ZBB mashup the Mayer classic with “Isn’t She Lovely” in a way that manages to be both endlessly impressive yet incredibly seamless.

Other immediate standouts are the band’s take on Kings of Leon’s megahit, “Use Somebody” and their recordings of the show-stopping Beatles hits “With a Little Help from My Friends” and “Eleanor Rigby.” Likewise, their take on the Who’s “Baba O’Riley” is another epic moment that makes listeners feel like they’re on-stage alongside ZBB, this time at Fenway Park.

The tropical-infused “Margaritaville” cover subtly pays tribute to the late, great Jimmy Buffet, while Steven Tyler lends his distinct vocals to “Sweet Emotion.” Both the Allman Brothers’ “Whipping Post,” featuring Marcus King, and “It’s a Great Day to Be Alive” find ZBB right in their wheelhouse, with the country classic perfect for a special live moment.

While ZBB may be most at home on anthemic rock tunes and country classic, they step outside of that box on covers of the Beastie Boys’ classic “Sabotage,” Metallica’s iconic “Enter Sandman,” and Frank Sinatra’s classic, “The Way You Look Tonight.” While these tracks may be outside of the norm for the band, they allow them to share their multifaceted musical skills.

On From The Road, Vol 1: Covers, Zac Brown Band reminds listeners why they’re one of the best live bands in country music, effortlessly fusing incredible harmonies and pristine musicianship across a wide range of artists and genres. We can’t wait for volume two.

 From the Road, Vol. 1: Covers Tracklist:

  1. Bohemian Rhapsody (Live at The SSE Arena, Wembley, London, UK, 09.25.2015)

Kolby Cooper Drops Brand New Song “Running Away”

/in , , /by

Kolby Cooper shares brand new song “Running Away,” out now, November 10th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.

Kolby Cooper continues to expand his impressive music catalog this year. In September, the creative singer-songwriter debuted a new song called, “Hello From The Road.” Today, Cooper is sharing another new track entitled, “Running Away.”

Much like Cooper’s previously released songs, “Running Away” features an honest, country-rock sound. The signature sound is evident through the new song, especially on the catchy hooks and choruses. “Running Away” captures the notion of wanting to be with someone so bad regardless of the situation and complications.  Cooper finds a way to make the song both relatable and authentic.

“The phone lights up at 3AM // That’s how I know you’re drunk and not with him // I don’t care // My walls are paper thin // If you were here, I’d pull you close // and tell you things you already know // let the candle light tangle our shadows // Come on baby, give me one night // I love you like a landslide // Ain’t gotta spend your whole life, running away”

Cooper continues to crank out music that cements his staying power in country music. With each and every new release, we get a deeper understanding of who the singer-songwriter is an artist and where he is headed on his musical journey.

Hannah Ellis Drops New Song “Too Much & Not Enough”

/in , , /by

Hannah Ellis releases new song “Too Much & Not Enough,” out now, November 10th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.

Time and time again, Hannah Ellis proves to be an artist to look out for. Today, she is giving fans another taste of her upcoming debut album, That Girl, slated for release on January 12th. Her new song, “Too Much & Not Enough” officially dropped today.

While each of the previously released songs on the record, including, “Wine Country,” “Someone Else’s Heartbreak,” and “Karma On The Rocks” brought an important type of honesty and introspection to the forefront, her newest single, “Too Much & Not Enough” may be her best yet. The new song is a painfully honest portrayal of how it feels to battle the feelings of not being everyone’s cup of tea. On the track, Ellis laments about feeling not enough and too much for people sometimes.

“Wish I could say what I think // Not think about it when I leave // or text them and take it back // I wish I could think I was great // and not feel like I’m taking away // from a shine someone else should have // I’m always apologizing for being unapologetic  // how’s a girl supposed to win, I don’t get it // I’m so sure of myself // and so insecure // I wish I could care less, a little bit more // It’s confusing as hell // being constantly stuck between too much and not enough”

“Too Much & Not Enough” is an incredible country song. The buzz around Ellis’ upcoming album is there for good reason!

Kameron Marlowe Delivers Love Letter to Music with New Song “Tennessee Don’t Mind”

/in , , /by

Kameron Marlowe shares brand new song “Tennessee Don’t Mind,” out now, November 3rd, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new track below.

Kameron Marlowe is one of the most exciting rising artists in country music right now. With each and every release, he showcases his talent, his charisma, and his star power. Today, the singer-songwriter adds another song to his growing catalog called, “Tennessee Don’t Mind.”

“Tennessee, she don’t mind, if I lead her on // She holds me even though she knows // In the morning I’ll be gone // Tennessee, she don’t know, just how good she is // There’s a mystery in the way she moves // pull she back again // and if I wanna stay awhile // If I get a little bit high // On the night and the whiskey // Underneath the bar room lights // She can always lead me home // Like a star in the southern sky // And if I’m lose she will take me home // into her arms tonight // Tennessee don’t mind”

On the new track, Marlowe leans into the craziness and honestly of being in the music industry. In February, the singer-songwriter shared a song called “Take Me Home,” which vulnerably touched on how it felt to weather the ups and downs of the music industry. “Tennessee Don’t Mind” expands on that notion, bringing more honest takes to the forefront.

According to Marlowe the song is almost like a love letter to Music City. “To me, Tennessee in this instance really represents Music City. There for sure is a give and take with chasing this dream, and especially the past two years have been a whirlwind. There’s a lot of ‘life’ we miss out on being on the road. It’s definitely something no one prepares you for. I feel the most at home on the road and sometimes that’s the scary part. The music just consumes you and sometimes and it’s hard to get out of your own head.”
