Jelly Rolls earns the number song at country radio this week with his song “Heart of Stone.” Learn more about the song below!
Jelly Roll is an absolute superstar, and he proves it time and time again. Truly one of the good ones, Jelly Roll deserves all of his well-earned successes. As his career continues to catapult him into the stratosphere, Jelly Roll has even more to celebrate. This week he earns his seventh number one single at country radio, topping the charts with his song, “Heart of Stone.”
As the third single off his album, Beautifully Broken, “Heart of Stone” has emerged as standout track. The song confronts the notion that who you stand with and stand for matters. In past interviews, Jelly Roll mentioned that this was one of his favorites off the project, which seems to be a sentiment we can all agree with.
“On my knees, I’m looking up // I need a different kind of drug // I’m wide awake and I’m dreaming // Wondering where and when I fell apart, oh, I fell apart // I had enough of my demons // Angels only meet you where you are, and I’m in the dark // At least for now Lord I ain’t losing hope // That somehow you can make a heart of gold from this heart of stone (oh) // This heart of stone, uh-uh”
Congrats to Jelly Roll and his team on his seventh number one at country radio! We can’t wait to see what comes next.

The Beginning:
Five years ago, we introduced you to an up and coming artist that we truly believed in. Today, we get to retell her story and celebrate the upcoming sophomore record that is releasing this Friday, October 10th. We chatted with singer-songwriter, Priscilla Block about the incredible last five years, her new record, and everything in between. Keep reading to learn more.
Growing up in North Carolina, Block always had a penance for music. She sang worship music at church with her mother, and eventually took an interest in guitar. “I was the girl learning all the Taylor Swift songs on the guitar,” she laughs, telling us, “I wrote my first song when I was 15, and I just fell in love with writing and performing for people. Anyone that would listen to me, I would play for.”
For Block, songwriting was always an important part of the process. “I was a songwriter before I was ever an artist. I love songwriting. It’s in my heart and my bones, it’s what makes my love country music even more.” Besides Swift, Block drew inspiration from artists like Shania Twain and Martina McBride, but she also listened ago a lot of pop and rap, namedropping artists like Cardi B and Usher.
Armed with a desire to make her dream a reality, Block took a chance on herself.
The Turning Point:
Straight out of high-school, Block headed to Nashville, Tennessee, where she currently resides. At first, she tried to make it in the music industry, all while going to school and working full-time, but it came apparent to her shortly after her move that it was an all or nothing type of thing. “One day, I decided that I just needed to give it a go. I quit my job, I quit school and just started networking like crazy in Nashville,” adding later, “I would go to shows, ask people to write that I loved their songs, and just really put myself in uncomfortable situations for the first little bit until I really established my core group of people in Nashville.”
Eventually, Block met her crew, blew up on TikTok, and signed her record deal with Universal Music Group Nashville in September of 2020. Her first radio single, “Just About Over You” impacted country radio, and it was off to the races.
For Block and her team, her raw, unapologetic, and unfiltered nature were important components in her music and in growing her diehard fanbase over the last five years. Block’s released her debut project, singles, and has been non-stop touring since the moment she started performing.
“I’ve been running non-stop on the road for five years. We’ve had a ton of headlining shows, I’ve opened for people,” shared the singer, “We just celebrated my first number one with Justin Moore, “You, Me, & Whiskey. It’s definitely been a rollercoaster the past five years, but it’s been great. I feel like my career has been steady climb, which is something that I’m really proud of.”
Today:
Flash forward to today, Block is embarking on her most vulnerable feat to date. Her brand new album, Things You Didn’t See comes out this Friday, filled with songs that speak to her growth as an artist and as a person in the spotlight.
“This record took me a lot longer than I thought it would. I was going to put out my album last year, and it was going to be called a completely different thing and it was a different vibe, and long story short, I felt like I needed to pump the brakes on the project, and figure out what it is that I’m wanting to say on this next record,” she shared, adding, “It inspired me to dig in a little bit different in my life over the past couple of years, and where I’ve been. What we had kind of originally was just really fun vibes, something people would expect, but this project I wanted to challenge myself to dive in deeper and show a side of me that maybe people haven’t seen.”
Things You Didn’t See is a project that will allow fans to see all sides of the songstress. “I may seem like this big, bold, confident girl, but there are days that I don’t feel like that girl or the love of my life, that’s you know part of this too that people really haven’t seen that side of me. There’s also a lot that goes into my childhood and how I grew up, that I really kind of feel like when you listen through to this record, you start to understand like what I am the way that I am.”
This record is the moment for Block to tell her full story. “Anyone who hasn’t gotten it or hasn’t really understood my vibe, like I really hope when they listen through to this record, that they’ll feel like they got to know me through this record.”
While fans eagerly wait for the record, Block is hard at work putting together the tour and the creative for the upcoming headlining tour. “I’m challenging myself with this tour. I want it to be something that fans have never seen from me. We’re working through the creative right now. I know that it’s going to be amazing, and I want to continue to put out new music and grow and become the biggest artist I can be,” she shared, finally adding, “I’m really hoping that this record shocks people in the best way.”

Who is Bayker Blankenship? The singer-songwriter joined us to chat about his journey to country music. Get to know the rising star here…
Bayker Blakenship
Quick Facts:
Full name – Bayker Blankenship
Birthdate – 6/8/2005
Hometown – Livingston, Tennessee
Current city – Livingston, Tennessee
Musical influences – Mac Miller, Tyler Childers, Bob Dylan
Label – Santa Anna Records
Current Project – “Everything She Does” (as of date of article: 9/29/2025)
The Beginning:
This week we shine our spotlight on an artist that has been turning heads lately for good reason! Bayker Blankenship is a twenty year old with big potential in country music. While he’s been going viral on social media for a bit now, we fell in love with his sound when he collaborated with Zach John King on “Life Behind Bars” earlier this year. Keep reading to learn more about Blakenship’s unique journey!
“I grew up in Livingston, Tennessee, my whole entire childhood, and I lived in a double wide trailer up on the hill,” began the singer. “It wasn’t much, just enough for us to be happy and my dad did everything he could so we could be happy.” As Blankenship shared about his humble beginnings, he mentioned a lot of love and family time growing up.
While he was always a fan of music, his love for music took a while to blossom into what it is now. “I didn’t really start learning the guitar until, I was I was 15 or 16 years old,” shared Blakenship. “I was always listening to the radio. I went to church a lot and always sang along there, but I never really understood how much music could mean to somebody until I started started working at this restaurant and my boss, at the time, showed me some Tyler Childers on Spotify. [I thought] this music stuff is deeper than just a bunch of tunes and a bunch of words to put together. It’s a bunch of stories that people get to tell and other people can relate.”
As he dug into music, Blankenship became a huge fan of artists like Childers, Luke Combs, and Bob Dylan. Currently, he appreciates the artistry of rising artists like Evan Honor and Wyatt Flores too.”
The Turning Point:
As Blankenship got more and more into music, he found himself exploring the depths of the music industry, first during the pandemic then for real a couple of years later.
“When 2020 hit and we got trapped in the house. I picked up guitar for about a week and then threw it back in my closet,’ he shared, adding, “After that, I was like, “I don’t know if I’m gonna learn that.” And then back in 2022, I picked it up again, and I really started learning it and then end of the year, I was posting TikTok videos, and then from there, I just I kind of kept posting TikTok videos and played a little bar shows around town. From doing that, people started coming in and I would sit there and just talk to everybody and get to know them, and then they would go out and tell everybody. The next thing you know, I had like 30 people at this bar show.”
Blankenship’s viral videos on TikTok catapulted his music career, even before he knew what it was. “So after that, we kind of took the next move, and signed a record deal,” shared the singer. “It’s a whole new world with TikTok and Instagram and all that kind of jazz.”
Since finding success on social media, Blankenship has hit the road hard, playing shows in every city he can, while also, working on his voice, something that he admits was not a natural talent for him at first. He credits feedback he got from his fans for how he has improved over the years.
Today:
Flash forward to today, Blankenship continues to share music with his fans. While we loved his collaboration with Zach John King, the singer-songwriter also recently released an incredible song called, “Everything She Does,” which was inspired by his relationship with is beautiful girlfriend.
“We went in the studio with me and a couple other guys. […] I wanedt to write a really kicking love song about my girlfriend,” he began. “I just kept talking and talking about how great she is. And then from there, it was kind of, we just, I don’t know, it just it went so well together, though. It really wasn’t hard to write.”
The song speaks to the love Blankenship has for his girlfriend, but also articulates love in a fresh and a new way that feels enjoyable to listen to and relatable at the same time. “I always think of my fans and like, this is the only reason that I’m actually here because they listen to my music, so when I write songs, I really want to.. I don’t know, connect with everybody on a different level.”
“Everything She Does” is the start of something great for the singer. He is already working on a ton of more music, even sharing with us that he just got a new song back the other day too, as well as, news that a project is also on his mind. “I think we’re gonna start working on it in a bigger project, and it’s gonna be fun, because this is what I’ve worked so hard to get to is is this time to just be in the studio and work on a masterpiece for the people.”
Until then, make sure you listen to Blakenship’s current catalog and go catch a show near you!

Scotty McCreery earns the number single at country radio this week with his song “Bottle Rockets” featuring Hootie & The Blowfish. Get all the details here.
Since 2011, when he was seventeen, Scotty McCreery has surely become a country music superstar. With six number one singles already in his catalog, the singer-songwriter is adding another one to the bunch. His electric and nostalgic song, “Bottle Rockets” featuring the iconic Hootie & The Blowfish (Darius Rucker) is officially his seventh song to hit the top of the country radio charts.
“Bottle Rockets” was inspired during a writing retreat to pay homage to the songs of his youth. The track is catchy and a true anthem. According to the singer, “This song takes me back to those summers of having fun with no responsibilities with good times and good tunes. For me growing up in the Carolinas, Hootie & the Blowfish were just massive and such a huge part of great summers growing up. That’s what this song ‘Bottle Rockets’ is about.”
“Everybody’s got a summer that they can’t forget // They hold on to and go back to // Yeah, mine’s on the Carolina coast // Still burnin’ in my mind like a red sunset // Chasin’ embers ’til September // What I remember most // Bottle rockets in the sky // Bare feet in the sand // Bonfire in her eyes // Cold beer in a can // Moonlight on the waves // Her kiss in the dark // The smile on her face when she’d make me break out my guitar and play // Hold my hand // Hold my hand”
Congrats to Scotty McCreery on his seventh number one single! We are sure there are more number ones in the cards for him as he continues to crank out more music. Also, a big congrats to Rucker/Hootie & The Blowfish!

Ben Gallaher’s new album, Time is out now, September 26th on all streaming platforms. Take a listen and read our full review below.
On his new album, Time, Ben Gallaher is truly ready for the spotlight. While many of today’s country stars can wear multiple hats as singers, songwriters, and guitarists, few are as strong in all three as Gallaher. Think John Mayer meets Keith Urban with hints of Bryan Adams and Kip Moore and you’ve got Gallaher.
A true triple threat, the Quartz Hill Records artist plays lead guitar on each of the album’s thirteen tracks, co-writing five. Produced by Neil and Patrick Thrasher, the collection blends country, rock, and pop, influenced by 80’s pop, 90’s country, 2000’s rock, and everything in between.
“I named the album Time because every song, every guitar riff and every live show only comes with time,” shares Gallaher in a statement. “And that’s exactly what went into making this record: time. These songs take me to different moments in my life and in my journey, all leading to finally making the record that I’ve always wanted to make.”
The album opens with “I’ll Take You,” a mid-tempo yet anthemic rocker that originally started as a ballad. Yet, with its infectious melodies and catchy instrumentation, it’s radio ready in a way that should instantly make Gallaher a chart topper. “I’ll take you over anybody any day, you like sunshine over rain,” He sings over driving guitars. “Your hand in my hand, Whatever life throws my way I’ll take you over anybody any day.”
“Sometimes, turning a ballad into a tempo track doesn’t work at all, and it feels forced, but this time it was the most organic experience,” says Gallaher of the transition that the song took. “I started playing that riff, and it fell right where it needed to land. Country music has always been built on relatability, and if you love someone like this song is describing, you get that.”
Throughout the LP, it’s clear that Gallaher is a guitarist first, the riffs and instrumentation truly standing out in a way that’s exciting and yet not overdone. “Betcha Money” provides one such moment, as he accepts the challenge to turn a girl ‘country.”
Likewise, with “Dirt Ones,” he honors the grit of a road warrior chasing every mile, and on “Rearview,” he shines with a pop-country gem about holding onto the memories that truly matter.
“Mistakes” stands as the most pop-rock-leaning track on the record, echoing influences from the Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty, and the Gin Blossoms. With a triumphant roar, he declares, “Everything that don’t kill me, makes me stronger than I was before.”
Elsewhere, the album’s title track follows in a similar vein, an alterna-rock tune that stands out with its groovy bass line and breezy melody that is as lush as it is meaningful. “I wish I could move on like time,” He muses, a warm guitar melody lifting the lyrics.
“Whiskey on a Wound” is a gritty story song, one of Gallaher’s personal favorites. Speaking to The Music Universe, he reveals, “ I’ve always loved this song personally, but once I started playing it live several years ago, the fans always reacted with, “When is this song being released?!” It’s a special one to me because I can finally get this one out there. It’s been a long time coming!”
“Where Do You Go” stands out in its simplicity, Gallaher’s emotive rasp clinging to the sparse acoustic ballad that shows he’s both a skilled singer and storyteller. “Where do you go when your go-to’s gone?” He asks, almost pleading with sadness.
“Kinda Can’t Say No” is a seductive ode to irresistible attraction, while “Bullet” is a gorgeous ballad, a proclamation of a love worth dying for. Inspired by his wife and solidified by his young son, it’s a perfect song for a first dance or a Grey’s Anatomy montage sequence.
“If there ever comes a time // If there ever comes a day // I’d give my life if it kept you safe // I hope it don’t but just know if it came down to it // I’d take a bullet for you I’d take a bullet for you”
The album ends on a high note with “Stomp,” a raucous and rowdy showstopper that was built around a viral guitar lick. With Gallaher’s guitar skills at the forefront, he cleverly draws listeners in with ear-catching riffs before bellowing into a full blown barn burner.
“Sounds like a 12 gauge goin’ off // When they play a little thing called STOMP // STOMP ON A COPPERHEAD // STOMP LIKE YA STOMP OUT A MARLBORO RED // STOMP ON AN OLD FLAT BED // THEY’RE SIPPIN’ AND A PICKIN’ BACK IN THE SWAMP // THAT SHIT THEY’RE KICKIN’ MAKE YA WANNA STOMP”
Blending sharp songwriting, undeniable guitar chops, and a voice built for both grit and tenderness, this record feels like the start of something big. If Time is any indication, Ben Gallaher’s time to shine begins now.
