Singer-Songwriter Tiera Drops New Song, “Found It In You”

/in , , /by

Tiera’s new single, “Found It In You” is available now, October 16th on all streaming platforms. Take a look below as we dig a little deeper into the track.

Songs & Daughters‘ Tiera released a new song, “Found It In You.” The brand new track is the perfect introduction, to who the songstress is as a singer-songwriter. After hustling in Nashville for what seems like forever, Tiera is finally getting the recognition and praise she deserves for her one of a kind talent.

“You’re the phone call picking up in the middle of the night / You’re the patience I don’t have when things ain’t right / You’re the ‘you can do it baby’ even when I don’t wanna try / My mama always said that really good love is just hard to find / But I found it in you”

The new song is one of those songs that is both a jam, yet sentimental. Although romantic and a love song at heart, it is a track that could easily be stripped down to acoustics and convey a different, yet equally impactful message. In our exclusive interview with Tiera, she shared how the song came to fruition, co-writing it with her producer Cameron Bedell.

Tiera Found It In You

Tiera “Found It In You”

“We wrote it at the beginning of last year,” she began, adding, “it was really fun writing that song because I didn’t know it was the start of a new chapter for me when we wrote it. I had been like searching for my sound for the longest time. I remember he [Bedell] sent me the demo after that writing session. I was like whatever this is, that is exactly the direction I want to go with my music.”

It’s safe to say that the singer-songwriter’s new song, “Found It In You” is a certified bop. It is story-telling at it’s best, but could truly interest fans across many different genres. Kudos to Tiera for releasing music that is authentic to who she is. We cannot wait for more!

Russell Dickerson Drops New Song + Announces New Album ‘Southern Symphony’

/in , , /by

Russell Dickerson released a brand new song, “Never Get Old” and revealed his sophomore record, Southern Symphony will be out December 4th. Read all the details below.

Singer-songwriter and NYCountry Swag OG, Russell Dickerson has released a new single “Never Get Old” that comes four months after his latest track “Home Sweet” and just five weeks into fatherhood with wife, Kailey, and son, Remington. “Never Get Old” is the third single to be released from his highly anticipated sophomore record, Southern Symphony. Previously, Dickerson referred to the forthcoming project as “RD2” before surprising fans today with the album title and official release date.

With “Never Get Old”, this new song begins to show a pattern and a potential style in which the collection of music may follow. For instance, in April “Love You Like I Used To” was the first single for this new chapter of music. It introduced a refreshed, artistically matured performer from what we know from the 2018 #1 smash “Yours” and 2019 hit “Every Little Thing”, both featured on Dickerson’s debut album, Yours.

While “Home Sweet” continues with the same energy and elements, the production shines as well. Dickerson, who played a role in production for both releases with Casey Brown and Dan Huff, seems to have found his sound for this new music, and “Never Get Old” is no exception to the substantial upgrade that listeners have been hearing from the artist.

Russell Dickerson Never Get Old

Russell Dickerson’s sophomore record, “Southern Symphony” will be released 12/4.

The hardcore yet sophisticated loudness of the song that confines our speakers demands to be played for a live audience. In fact, for fans who caught Dickerson on Kane Brown’s The Worldwide Beautiful Tour earlier this year, concertgoers may remember Dickerson opening his energetic set with the new, unreleased song. Between the electric guitar primarily taking over and the sound effects of clapping present, RD surely has a banger on his hands.

Lyrically, “Never Get Old” utilizes different scenarios such as going to a dive bar with a good band on a 2-for-1 Saturday night to promote that never gets old feeling. It serves as a reminder that such little moments like a chill night at home with a significant other never gets old. The lyrics stretch to any circumstance whether social distancing is a common phrase or not. It’s both modern and traditional.

One thing remains true about Dickerson, the new record Southern Symphony will be epic. Pre-save the album now and check back on its release date, December 4th for the full album review.

Florida Georgia Line Receive St. Jude “Angels Among Us” Award

/in , /by

Superstar duo Florida Georgia Line received the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s “Angels Among Us” Award during a special livestream presentation today (October 15th).

The livestream, themed “We Won’t Stop,” is an annual celebration of partners affiliated with the Country Cares for St. Jude Kids® radio program.

St. Jude, located in Memphis, Tennessee is a research hospital for children battling cancer and other deadly diseases. Perhaps the most special part about the organization is, thanks to very generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food. Families receive the best care in the country, at no cost, making the worst and darkest days of their lives a little bit brighter – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.

Not only is St. Jude currently taking care of patients within its own doors but its research facility and labs are open 24/7 and freely share their findings with hospitals and doctors across the country. They are working towards a world where no family ever has to hear the words “you have cancer”.

Launched more than 30 years ago, Randy Owen from the band Alabama stood up during Country Radio Seminar in Nashville and asked his friends, colleagues, and radio partners to join together to help St. Jude and the children they serve, and so, “Country Cares for St. Jude Kids” was born. The program unites more than 200 radio stations and dozens of country music artists annually to raise awareness and support for St. Jude kids.

In addition, Owen, who has been an example of compassion and support since the beginning, kick-started the beloved tradition of giving the “Angels Among Us” award to others who have shown his spirit and exceptional dedication to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

As Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line receive the award this year, the organization recognizes their generosity and passion for serving the St. Jude mission: Finding cures. Saving children.®

The 17-time chart-topping, multi-platinum duo have supported St. Jude families for many years. In addition to their involvement in the This Shirt Saves Lives campaign since 2017, they’ve also orchestrated several special moments with St. Jude patients. One prime example of this is when they surprised a patient on stage in 2018, leading a crowd of more than 1,500 fans in singing the “No More Chemo” song to him – in celebration of his last round of chemotherapy. Another example is just last year when FGL added a surprise tour stop at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital during their “Can’t Say I Ain’t Country Tour.” The special event attracted a record crowd of patient families for an on-campus event, giving them a day to look forward to and a reminder that they are not alone.

St. Jude We Won't Stop Tee

This year, following the St. Jude “This Shirt Saves Lives” campaign, the organization introduces the “We Won’t Stop” tee. For a monthly donation of just $19, you can get the exclusive tee and help support this incredible program. It costs over a million dollars daily to operate St. Jude each and every day. Donations are what keeps them able to help children suffering. To donate and get your own “We Won’t Stop” t-shirt head to www.stjude.org.

2020 Billboard Music Awards: Country Genre Recap

/in , /by

There were 14 country artists nominated at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards, which took place last night (Wednesday, October 14th) in Los Angeles. Check out our recap below.

Billy Ray Cyrus led country artists with five nominations for his collaboration with Lil Nas X on “Old Town Road.” Dan + Shay, Luke Combs, and Maren Morris were nominated for four awards each and Garth Brooks received the Icon Award. Brooks, Combs, and Kane Brown all performed as well. Take a look below to see which artists took home the hardware:

 

Billy Ray Cyrus and Lil Nas X took home the award for Top Hot 100 Song with “Old Town Road.” This song won three additional awards after the show as well, including Top Rap Song, Top Streaming Song, and Top Selling Song. Lil Nas X teased that a new album in the works for 2021 and we wonder if he will have another country artist feature on a track with him.

Kane Brown was the first Nashville artist to take the stage last night and he was joined by Swae Lee and Khalid to perform their pop collaboration, “Be Like That.”

Actress and new host of The Weakest Link, Jane Lynch announced the Top Country Artist, a category with the nominees of Luke Combs, Dan + Shay, Kane Brown, Maren Morris, and Thomas Rhett. Combs won the award and performed “Better Together” immediately after. Watch it below:

“This is something I would have never dreamed of when I was growing up,” Combs shared. “It never falls on deaf ears, the love that you guys give me, and I’m very grateful for it.”

Cher, who received the Icon Award in 2017, introduced Garth Brooks as this year’s recipient. Brooks, who has 19 number hits, 17 number one albums and was the first artist to have seven albums sell over ten million copies each, performed a melody of his biggest hits over his entire 30+ year career, including “The Thunder Rolls,” “The River,” “Standing Outside the Fire,” “The Dance,” “Friends in Low Places” and more.

 

“If I had to thank one person or one entity it would be God Almighty for through him all things are possible,” Brooks praised after receiving his award. “If you talk about down here on this planet: Bob Doyle; the group of Nashville in LA; to the love of my life, Trisha Yearwood; the three girls, Taylor, August and Allie, I will love you beyond my time on the planet; country radio, you gave me this; and to all those people that fill those stands thank you. Thank you for my life!”

Non-televised award-winners included Luke Combs for Top Country Male Artist and Top Country Album with What You See Is What You Get, Maren Morris for Top Country Female Artist, George Strait for Top Country Tour, and Dan + Shay for Top Country Duo/Group and Top Country Song with “10,000 Hours” featuring Justin Bieber.

‘It All Begins With a Song’ Streaming Now On Amazon Prime

/in , /by

It All Begins with a Song, now streaming on Amazon Prime, provides music lovers with a behind the scenes glance at the Nashville songwriting industry. Check out our review below.

It All Begins with A Song

It All Begins with A Song Streaming Now On Amazon Prime

Between shots of living room studios, the legendary Bluebird Cafe, and publishing houses across Nashville, the intro of, ‘It All Begins With a Song’ starts in a way that will make any music lover swoon; with writers listing the famous songs they’ve penned despite that fact that you likely don’t know any of their names. From country hits like “Live Like You Were Dying”, “Whiskey Lullaby”, “Mama’s Broken Heart”, and “Jesus Take the Wheel” to pop and rock anthems including “Don’t Stop Believing” and, “You Give Love a Bad Name”, the new Amazon Prime documentary brings songwriters typically in the shadows into the well-deserved spotlight.

There is no shortage of familiar faces throughout the project (Garth Brooks, Kelsea Ballerini, Brad Paisley, Luke Bryan, Kacey Musgraves, and Brandy Clark just to name a few), but it’s the unfamiliar ones who steal the 90-minute show. Music city hitmakers featured in commentary and performance clips include Jimmy Robbins, the late, great, busbee, Andrew Combs, Jessi Alexander, Brett James, Caitlyn Smith, Jeffrey Steele, and Shane McAnally, along with dozens more.

In the 1950’s American songwriter Harlen Howard said all you need to write a country song is, “three chords and the truth”. Today, ninety-five years after the Grand Ole Opry first hit the airways, that’s still the case, and it’s those stories that continue to make listeners fall in love with music.

Songs touch people, and sometimes our experiences with their songs can touch the writer too. Bill Anderson shared an emotional memory of a time his song, “Five Little Fingers” gave a suicidal man something to live for, but it’s the final segment that’s the most powerful. After hearing a story on NPR about a father desperate to feel close to the son he lost in Afghanistan, Connie Harrington and Jessi Alexander wrote, “I Drive Your Truck”. The record, which would later become a number one song for Lee Brice, is to this day one of the best depictions of grief in the country genre.

Music can heal. Music can inspire. Music can bring us together. And it all beings with a song.

‘It All Begins with a Song’ is now streaming on Amazon Prime.

Tim McGraw’s “I Called Mama” Claims Top Spot and Earns Him 44th Career #1

/in , /by

Tim McGraw’s “I Called Mama” earns him his 44th career number one as the song hits the top spot on the country charts this week.

For decades, McGraw has graced our radio airwaves, giving us the tunes that have become the soundtrack to our lives. In fact, along with this marks the fourth straight decade for McGraw on scoring No. 1 singles, to match his four-decade streak on No. 1 albums he accomplished earlier this year with his 16th studio album, HERE ON EARTH. The album serves as his first solo release in five years marking his return to Big Machine Records.

“I Called Mama” is the lead single from the record and is a message to everyone to remember the people that make our world a little brighter even during the darker times. The beautiful track is truly impactful during these unprecedented times we have been living in over the last several months through the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Grabbed my guitar from the back seat / Wrote a song just for me / And I sung it for the blue sky / And a couple live oak trees / I thought of home, grabbed my phone from my pocket / And I called mama”

Written by Lance Miller, Mary Green, and Jimmy Yeary, the single is literally a reminder to call your mom, but the deeper message is to seek comfort in those who comfort you and welcome you with open arms, despite your flaws.

As the song tops the charts, McGraw continues to impress and proves that his music still resonates well with modern-day country music fans. “I Called Mama” is McGraw’s first number-one single since the iconic “Humble and Kind” debuted in 2016, but of course the singer has had many charted songs in between. We cannot wait to see which song is a hit with country music lovers next.

Luke Combs Releases Acoustic “My Kinda Folk” In Weekly Series

/in , , /by

Luke Combs released an acoustic preview of “My Kinda Folk” from his upcoming What You See Ain’t Always What You Get Deluxe album. Every Monday over the past four weeks, Combs has taken to social media to perform an acoustic snippet of a new track from the album in a new Weekly Series until its official release on October 23rd. Watch “My Kinda Folk” below:

“My Kinda Folk” is an ode to the hard-working men and southern lifestyle that this singer loves to endure. Lyrically, this song resembles “Blue Collar Boys,” but based on the 27 seconds he teased on his social media pages, it sounds a little more 90’s country-influenced.

There oughta be a law against working this hard and still having this much fun / We get it done, drink a beer, catch a fish, hunt a deer and then we’ll  fire up a little smoke / Me and my kinda folk

Next Monday, Combs will perform the final song and fan-favorite, “Forever After All” which he has previously played live, before officially releasing the five new songs on Friday, October 23rd.

Justin Moore Releases New Song “We Didn’t Have Much”

/in , , /by

Justin Moore’s brand new song, “We Didn’t Have Much” is available now, October 9th on all streaming platforms following his September album release Live at the Ryman. Read more about the new track here.

After recently landing his ninth #1 single with “Why We Drink”, Justin Moore has released a brand new single almost directly following his Live at the Ryman album released September 25. “We Didn’t Have Much” focuses on all of those small yet meaningful treasures that prompt joy such as swimming holes, Sunday chicken, and the smell of coffee in the kitchen.

“I’m really excited to get ‘We Didn’t Have Much’ out to Country radio. It sounds different than any other song we’ve released to radio in my career,” Moore shares in a press release. “I think it’s a poignant lyric for this time in our lives also. 2020 has led my family and I to lead a more simple life than what we are accustomed to. This song speaks to the beauty in that simplicity.”

With magical guitar accompaniment that speaks to the nostalgia commonly considered in relation to the past, and childhood specifically, the production of this new track from Moore brings the listener back to those special moments in which we cherish and reflect on with a smile. Moments that weren’t significant at the time, though, with time, end up being greatly valued and acknowledged as such.

Justin Moore's "We Didn't Have Much" is out now

Justin Moore’s “We Didn’t Have Much” is available everywhere now

“There was dirt on daddy’s clothes / From putting that bacon on mama’s stove / Dog barking in the yard at a truck we don’t know / All we had was us / And that little bitty house and a lotta love / We had it all when we didn’t have much”

“We Didn’t Have Much”, written by Jeremy Stover, Randy Montana, and Paul DiGiovanni is the first single release of an entirely new project. A sixth-studio record from Moore is set to hit streaming platforms in 2021. Until then, anticipate this new chapter of music with the singer-songwriters tendency to paint a picture with words of “country traditionalism, vivid storytelling and signature Arkansas-bred twang”.

Kassi Ashton Releases New Song “Black Motorcycle”

/in , , /by

Kassi Ashton’s brand new song, “Black Motorcycle” is available now, October 7th on all streaming platforms. Accompanied by the announcement of Ashton’s partnership with Harley Davidson® as a brand ambassador, take a look below as we dive into the track.

Muted lyrics to start, with a grounded beat that follows, “Black Motorcycle” has a rock country soul with punk rock style. The electric guitar and tone of Ashton’s voice encompass a struggle for rebellion and a complete rumbling of the body mimicking that of the motorcycle.

In a recent press release, Ashton explains “I’ve always in my head kind of considered my music motorcycle country. I like music with weight at the bottom. That’s freeing and moving, but still sits down here,” motioning to the pit in her stomach.

The singer-songwriter hit the nail on the head, as this track most definitely does just that. It inspires escape with the wind blowing through your hair in the chorus, and a never-ending drive that starts deep in the gut.

Ashton shares a bond with her father over their love of motorcycles, further evolved with the announcement of her partnership with Harley Davidson® as one of its brand ambassadors. She has the gritty authenticity of one who doesn’t care what anyone thinks, but still has pop tendencies to remain connected to her audience.

Kassi Ashton’s “Black Motorcycle” is out now

“If you can be my easy ride, I, I’ll be the gasoline, baby you my lighter / Kiss me and take me a million miles, all the way / Lay back on the back of your black motorcycle”

Whether listening live or on your own motorcycle, Kassi Ashton’s “Black Motorcycle” is every gritty rebel song you want when you just want to get away and be free.
