The Beginning:

Today’s spotlight shines on incredible singer-songwriter, Randall Fowler. While there are many talented artists in the country music space, Fowler is committed to taking an authentic approach to music and honoring the people in his life that make it possible. Continue reading to learn more about his story.

“I’m from a small town right outside of Charleston, South Carolina. […] I played sports growing up and when I got out into the working field, I got one of my first jobs just washing dishing in a dish pit. I would sing in the back while washing dishes and I had a buddy at the time, who was the bar manager, and he heard me singing and he was like, “hey man, are you in a band? I’m getting ready to start a band.” Started Fowler, before confirming he did in fact join the band.

Growing up, Fowler recalls drawing inspiration from many genres of music; however, country remained his first inspiration. “My grandmother would take me on car rides down to Virginia, and on the backroads we’d listen to Charley Rich, Charley Pride, all the older stuff. I would just sing along to it. I remember getting a Travis Tritt cassette tape, a Tracy Lawrence cassette tape, a Faith Hill cassette tape, that was some of the first stuff I was singing along to.” Adding later, “I had a very charismatic family. In my earlier years, my parents went their separate ways when I was young, but I got to hang out with my dad’s family a lot, and they were very charismatic and they all sang a lot. I had some family members with incredible voices and that kind of rubbed off on me.”

Fowler took his love of music with him when he joined his co-workers cover band. “I was about to turn 20, 21, and I met this guy at a little garage shed, and I met the rest of the band, and we started playing music together locally as a cover band for the next eleven years.”

The Turning Point:

After performing for eleven years in a successful cover band, Fowler was finding himself ready to take a break from music. “I was getting ready to press pause on the music stuff for a little while,” he shared, craving more stability for his family. However, that pause was short-lived when a buddy of his invited him to Nashville to sing on an R&B song.

“We kicked it off, I sang on it, we got a really cool song, and after the session was over, he shared that he wrote country songs as well. I asked to hear them and I immediately thought, “this could be fun. I’d like to know a little more.” I ended up cutting that song, and with the music that he showed me, I ended up writing on that as well,” shared the singer.

Fowler has been in Nashville for about two years now, focusing on both growing his songwriting skills and releasing music as a Reviver Records artist. “I just really love every minute of it. It’s something that I didn’t dream of how it would kind of get started. […] Writing songs is the most important thing, and recently, I’ve really learned to embrace and love that, all the while putting out songs as a solo artist, as often as every four to six weeks.”

Today:

Flash forward to today, Fowler is releasing a lot of music. Most recently the singer-songwriter shared two singles called “About Forever” and “Glory.” Both songs are a testament to the life he lives and the people who he loves.

“With my song, “About Forever,” I went to a write with two of the coolest guys I know, Clay Mills and Chris Sligh. I know that they really believe in me and we often have a lot of sessions together. Both prolific writers, heavy hand on the pen, and just like me, great guys, open-minded to whatever ideas you bring to the table. I wanted to write a special song for my lady. […] “About Forever” started on a melody. […] I knew it was something that would channel the emotions that I was aiming for. We wrote it with a piano vocal, and we sat on the demo for a little while.” 

The song impressed his wife, who was his muse for the song. It became really important to Fowler, who subsequently released it earlier this summer.

“It’s more of a personal story to me. Every lyric in the song is something that my wife and I have shared personally. We were kids when we got together, sixteen and seventeen, and it took me about eleven years to really grow up, I’d say. We kind of took our time in getting married. This year is our twentieth year together, and I thought it would be special to put out a song celebrating [almost] nine years married.”

On the other hand, “Glory,” his most recent release, was written with his buddy who unfortunately passed away just a week after writing the song. “I wrote it with a friend of mine named Sam Johnson, who passed away last year, suddenly, and it’s just every lyric of that song, every verse, just poured out of him when we were writing. We tragically lost Sam about a week and half later, and this song is just so special. It’s straight out of the mouth of my best friend, Sam Johnson, who is one of the most prolific, up and coming writers that left his mark in such a little time here in Nashville.”

Fowler fans can expect more music coming down the pipeline soon, so stay tuned!

/in , , , /by

Dasha extends her debut album with a new deluxe version called, What Happens Now? Deluxe, out now, September 13th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new project here.

When rising star, Dasha came on the scene, she was instantly embraced by country fans for her one-of-a-kind talent and charisma. While her viral song, “Austin” may have put her on the map, her debut album, What Happens Now?  showcases that she is much more than one viral song. Today, Dasha celebrates her return to her roots by releasing the deluxe version of her project, What Happens Now? Deluxe.

“I’ve never really felt at home in any other space until the country genre. Releasing the deluxe version of What Happens Now? Feels like the end of an era,” shared Dasha in a recent press release. “I’m really proud of this project and the chapter we created together, and it has set me up for even better and brighter things in the future. The world of country generously opened their arms so big for me and my debut. Artists like Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Kelsea Ballerini and Keith Urban have really encouraged me to go bigger and bolder while doing what I love as a human and an artist. For that, I’ll be forever thankful.”

When she chatted with Country Swag last November, Dasha revealed, “I had this epiphany and was like ‘I have to go back to my roots and start making country music again’, so in the last nine months to a year, I’ve really dove into that […] I have never had such an amazing time making music before. Music has never come so effortlessly to me before as it has with this music. It’s the beginning of this new country era.”

The deluxe version of the project houses five new songs, including, “Didn’t I?” Each of the songs showcase her talent, as she leans into her incredible songwriting prowess. Songs like “Leaving Don’t Mean Goodbye” and “Ain’t No Friend of Mine” capture the essence of her artistry. Both songs read like diary entries, as Dasha unapologetically shares her truth in all of her music.

Each new song keeps with the heart of the debut project, while embedding even more honesty into an already authentic project. With each and every release, Dasha plants her feet firmly into the country music soil, where she belongs.

Brantley Gilbert: ‘Tattoos’ – Album Review

/in , , /by

Brantley Gilbert’s new album, Tattoos is out now, September 13th on all streaming platforms. Take a listen and read our full review below.

Known for his unique rasp, bad-boy-meets-balladeer image and righteous redneck swagger, Brantley Gilbert is taking it back to the basics on his new album, Tattoos, out now. Featuring ten new tracks, all of which he co-wrote, the album shows the Georgia native stripping himself bare to reveal everything that he stands for.

“All my albums, they capture a chapter of my life,” Gilbert explained in a statement. “If somebody wants to know who I am, what I’ve been through and where I stand, they can start at the beginning and listen through, and that’s why it was undeniable that Tattoos should be the title – because my tattoos do the same thing.”

Featuring Gilbert shirtless and on full display, the album cover is eye-catching yet mysterious, the music found within capturing that same vibe. Throughout the collection, Gilbert explores various tropes of the country genre, dabbling in patriotism, faith, drinking, small towns, and the merits of hard work. Yet, he avoids being trite as he meshes driving guitars, hip-hop-laced verses, and powerful duets to tell a carefully crafted story.

The album opens with a one-two punch of collaborations, kicking off with the roaring “Dirty Money,” featuring Justin Moore. Sonically, it’s an immediate ear-grabber, a growling celebration of the value of getting your hands dirty in the name of sweat equity. “I was like, man, we’re just going to let the guns loose on this one,” Gilbert says of the track. “Let all the dogs off the leashes and get after it.”

“Over When We’re Sober” is a clear standout of the Valory Music artist’s LP, finding Gilbert trading mournful verses with Ashley Cooke. The singers grapple with a toxic relationship on the power ballad, finding them falling into old habits when they’re under the influence, while realizing the truth the next morning. “They say it’s over when it’s over, but they don’t know us,” They heart-achingly harmonize. “It’s only over when we’re sober.”

Other collabs on the album span the gamut, ranging from the immediately recognizable falsetto of Rascal Flatts’ frontman, Gary Levox, on “God Isn’t Country” to the lesser known hip hop stylings of Struggle Jennings and Demun Jones on “Me and My House.” Both songs tackle similar themes with the LeVox duet celebrating the evidence of a higher power, while “Me and My House” is a statement of traditional values and patriotism.

“A lot of times I see folks trying to pull me into a political battle, but this song is not political at all, and it’s not preachy,” Gilbert says. “I believe that all of us are the kings and queens of our own castle, and I would never in a million years tell somebody how to run their home. It’s just about sharing how we run ours, what home is to us. I think it’s a song people won’t just relate to, I think it’s a song we need.”

The album’s title track is another standout, a slow burn that tells Gilbert’s story through his body art. “I knew I had one that really captured who I am,” he shares. “It doesn’t sound like anything else you’ve heard before, and it really gives you the long and short of my life, which is what my tattoos do.”

“My body is a temple // But my temple is a canvas // These ain’t just some tattoos // This is who I am // This is what I’ve been through // This is where I stand // This is where I came from, what I fight for, what I love // What made a man out of that old boy that I was // And I ain’t going back to, I didn’t get ‘em ‘cause I had to // These ain’t just some tattoos”

“Gone By Now” is a prayer of thanksgiving for his wife, Amber, a romantic and powerful ballad that finds him in celebration of her virtues and fidelity. “If I was you, I would’ve been gone by now,” He admits. “It takes a special kind of woman to put up with a boy like me.”

Both “Off the Rails” and “The Hell That Raised Us” are classic Gilbert hellraisers, singalong vocals mixed with riffing guitars in an anthemic manner. Meanwhile, “Out Here” and “Miss These Towns” are celebrations of small town life, with the former lifting up the lifestyle of getting off the grid. Finally, “Miss These Towns” closes the album on a poignant note, inviting listeners to enjoy the moment. On the sparse and nostalgic piano ballad, he waxes poetic about the decline and replacement of small town USA, including the one in which he was raised.

For Brantley Gilbert, the album represents where he’s been, who he is, and what he’s overcome.  “People get ’em for a lot of reasons, but for most of us, tattoos talk about our victories and losses, our struggles and the whole nine,” he says of his body art. “I was one of those kids who had to learn the hard way. But if I would’ve listened to the advice of others, I don’t know I would have ended up where I’m at.”

Who Is Brooke Moriber? The Story Behind Her Journey to Country Music 2024

/in , , /by

Who is Brooke Moriber? The singer-songwriter joined us to chat about her journey to country music. Get to know the rising star here…

Who-is-brooke-moriber

Brooke Moriber

Quick Facts:
Full Name – Brooke Moriber
Birthdate – June 1
Hometown – New York, New York
Current City – Nashville, Tennessee & NYC
Musical Influences –  Linda Ronstadt, Brandi Carlile, Alanis Morisette, Celine Dion, Jelly Roll
Label – Reviver Records, LLC
Current Single – “So Do I” (New EP – All Heart)
The Beginning:

Back in September of 2021, we introduced you to New York native, Brooke Moriber. Morriber is an incredible songwriter and a powerhouse vocalist. We caught up with the songstress to learn more about her story and hear all about her latest new music.

“I grew up in New York City, actually in Greenwich Village,” began the singer. “I was exposed to every kind of music under the sun and I always wanted to be a performer, since before I could remember.” Growing up, both of her parents were formerly involved in the arts. “I ended up starting out as a performer in Broadway musicals. When I was a kid, I auditioned for Les Miserables and I got it when I was eight years old.”

This started the songstress on the trajectory to perform for a living; despite, always having a desire to share her own story. “I ended up doing seven broadway musicals, and I loved doing it, but in the back of my mind, I always thought I was in the wrong part of this business, and I wanted to write music and connect with people on a deeper level.”

She found inspiration in artists like Linda Ronstadt and Billy Joel, but truly loved many genres. “It ranged from 90s hiphop, to grunge to people like Sheryl Crow, Sarah McLachlan, and Shania Twain,” shared Moriber. “I guess that’s where some of the country comes out of me, but I was listening to everything,” she adds.

Unfortunately, when the singer was a teenager, she was diagnosed with a rare eye disease that left her blind for four years. “It wasn’t suppose to come back, but four years later, the disease went into remission, and when this happened, I started to write music, and as cheesy as it sounds, I truly believe that music is the thing that healed me. It has ever since then been my mission to share my stories with people and help other people heal through music.”

The Turning Point:

Moriber continued to perform on Broadway and played gigs with her band as much as she could in New York City. However, it was after many people kept telling her to try out Nashville that she fell in love with another city. “Once I was in Nashville, I just started going to writer’s rounds and watching people, and just immersing myself in it. It just became a part of me. I love the genre beyond words,” shared the artist.

During those co-writes in Nashville, Moriber fell in love with the genre and country music. Nowadays, she is inspired by the ladies in country music like Ella Langley, Carly Pearce, and Avery Anna. “All the girls in country music that are just really inspiring. I’m really inspired by the women and the community in Nashville. I think women have had to be really strong to be taken seriously, and they had to be really good to be taken seriously. The talent out there is so awe-inspiring.”

Moriber later added, “After my first writing session, I just knew this was home. A lightbulb just went off, and I formed a family out there of friends and musicians, and I felt like they welcomed me with open arms.” It was then that she began to travel back and forth from New York to Nashville for work.

Nashville was the stepping stone that allowed Moriber to finally fully embody her career as a recording artist. She later signed a deal with Reviver Entertainment Group and released there debut song, “The Town Made Us.”

Today:

Flash forward to today, Moriber is releasing music that she is proud of. Each and every song and project she shares is a true embodiment of where she is at in her life currently. Most recently, the singer-songwriter released an EP called All Heart, which features two version of her fan-favorite song, “Half a Heart.”

“My EP features a new piano-version of my song “Half a Heart.” It’s one of those songs that I didn’t know how it was going to do when I first released it. […] It’s actually one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written, it’s so deeply personal,” shared the singer, adding, “I’ve ben hosting this bimonthly show called Nashville New York, and I actually played “Half a Heart” on piano acoustically, and after that a bunch of people asked for an acoustic version of the song.”

In addition to the project, Moriber recently released a song called “So Do I.” “At the moment, “So Do I” is its own entity. […] That song was interesting how it came about. I went into a writing session, and we were bouncing back and forth ideas, and none of us were super jazzed with any of the ideas. […] We started writing lyrics to this vibey and arid track. It was this very organic and cool experience, and I hadn’t written top-line to anything since I was doing the pop thing,” shared the artist.

Fans can look forward to even more from Moriber as the months go on. She is playing many live gigs this season throughout the country. Stay tuned!

“Long Ride Home” is a simple, yet impactful song about love and missing someone. Throughout the track, Morgan pays homage to the blue-collar workers who often have to leave their loved ones in order to work. The singer’s vocals are convincing and mesmerizing throughout the beautiful song. “Long Ride Home” embodies exactly what country music is about.

“The sun setting on the sate line of Alabama // watching the welcome sign fly by // little red in my eyes, got the radio up and my Ray Bans on // 2000 miles can get a little lonely // when there’s a voice on the phone saying baby come back // that angel waiting on the other side of morning keeps the horses running fast // It’s gonna be a long ride home // Rollin 18 wheels down an open road // hauling a heartache and a heavy load // It’s just another long night alone”

Morgan continues to showcase why he is an up and coming artist to look out for in country music. Definitely keep him on your radar!
