To celebrate the latest release of his new song, Luke Combs took on New York City to promote his long-anticipated new single. Combs performed his new single “Beer Never Broke my Heart” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night making the song’s television debut.
Just before Combs took the stage, Fallon introduced Combs with “Oh you’re going to love this song! Here with the TV debut of his new single “Beer Never Broke My Heart” give it up for Luke Combs.”
The backdrop perfectly displayed Combs’ new music video for this single. The red-steamy background was in full effect. Starting off the song with his raspy, old-school country powerful voice, Combs gave the fans even more reason to keep listening as if we didn’t have it on repeat already. For his fashion sense, Combs sticks to his roots with wearing what he knows, representing Appalachian State. His stage presence and feel of the song makes you believe every word and this track is nothing but a future hit for the rising superstar.
After the performance was over, Fallon came out on stage overjoyed. As the audience applauded and cheered, Fallon said, “That’s what I’m talking about! Thank you, buddy. Fantastic! Loved It. Luke Combs! “Beer Never Broke My Heart” is out now.” Combs just playing this track back last January, to it going viral on Facebook, to now performing it on live television, the wait is finally over where we can enjoy the song live and studio version.
“Thinking About You” is now available everywhere you buy or stream music. Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music here on our New Country music playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.

The independent singer-songwriter Logan Mize is giving us an even more sneak peek of his upcoming EP. His forthcoming new, five-song From The Vault EP was created for his dedicated fans and is due May 17. The tracks are from sessions recorded between 2013-2014 that he thought deserved a chance. He recently just dropped his nostalgic track “Only In This Town” and now we’re seeing a different side of his EP today (5/10) with “Thinking About You.”
“Thinking About You” is written by GRAMMY Album Of The Year Award-winner Daniel Tashian, who co-produced Kacey Musgraves’ Golden Hour and songwriter Troy Verges who has well-known tracks for Tim McGraw and Little Big Town. Mize credits Daniel Tashian’s demo of the song, adding in a recent press release that, “When I heard Daniel Tashian’s demo of this song, it sounded like it should be a big pop classic from a 1980’s John Hughes film. I took it in the studio with a hodgepodge of session players and road guys, and we just had a blast cutting it.” The track starts off with a guitar throwback feel that makes you wanna turn up the radio and bop your head. The song’s about loving everything about someone and not being able to get them off your mind.
“I’ve been thinking about you / How you walk how you talk / Such a pretty mess I see you dancing in your boots and your black dress / Stone cold you’re so fine / I gotta let you know if you were mine I’d never ever let you go / When you move / When you shake it and you down/ Make my heart beat so loud / You’re too good to be true / Yeah, I’ve been thinking about you”
Mize’s unique and authentic sound with a hint southern-rock and country is what sets him apart from every other artist. He’s setting the bar high for independent artists with his upcoming EP From The Vault. Check out our live session with Logan back in 2018 in the video below. Mize will continue playing his headlining tour, “Better Off Gone Tour” through the beginning of June. For tickets and more tour information, check out his website loganmize.com
“Thinking About You” is now available everywhere you buy or stream music. Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music here on our New Country music playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.

It has been 8 years since Rodney Atkins released his last album Take a Back Road. It includes hits like “Farmer’s Daughter,” “Take a Back Road,” and “He’s Mine.” Atkins has produced countless chart-topping hits and sold over 10 million albums throughout his career and that had fans wondering why he took such a long break from music. Over Instagram throughout the last year, in anticipation of a new album, he has said that the time away from releasing music has been used to raise a family and in the previous few, to hone his craft to make more chart-topping hits. Caught Up In The Country is finally available and is Atkins newest album.
“Caught Up In The Country” was Atkins first release off the album back in the fall. The song celebrates all the good things that come with living in the country: beautiful sunsets, endless dirt roads, and countless stars in the sky. The boot-stomping single, featuring the Fisk Jubilee Singers, has already garnered over 86.6M on-demand streams and shows no signs of slowing down. “Caught Up In The Country” sets the mood for the whole album with meaningful lyrics and a rhythm that brings you back to your country roots. In our interview with Atkins last summer at Taste of Country Festival, he told us a little bit about the new music on the album stating: “It’s an organic record, but it is kind of me pushing the envelope.” Check out the full interview below.
Everyone knows Atkins song “Watching You,” about a young son who wants to be just like his dad in every way, and to accomplish this, he watches his dad’s every move. One of Atkins newest songs off the new album is “Young Man,” the continuation of the young boy’s life from “Watching You.” He stated on Instagram, “For those, my son was four years old, he’s 17 now, and this is telling him to be where he is, not try to grow up too fast. Be present, at whatever age you are.”
“All My Friends Are Drunk” is the anti-party song for all those who go to parties and don’t drink. The somber song tells a story of a group of friends who try taking their buddy out after a break up who ends up by himself when his friends go off and party. “Thank God For You” is another track off the album that shows his appreciation for the woman in his life. This upbeat song is a great one to sing along to with those around you who you appreciate every day. On a more personal note, we already see Atkins wife, Rose Falcon, appear in “Thank God For You” music video but her vocals also appear on the album in songs “Figure You Out” and “Everybody’s Got Something.” The “Figure Out You (Riddle) [Feat. Rose Falcon],” lyric video was just released and features personal photos of the singer, his two sons and Rose herself.
Other songs on the album include, “My Life,” the powerful story of his wife Rose Falcon’s beloved grandmother, “Burn Something,” a relationship that simply does not work together yet they keep running back, and “Cover Me Up,” a love song about simply being enough as you are.
In a recent press release, Atkins says. “I wanted to really tell a story in the shape and the melody of these songs—there’s more diversity on this record than I’ve ever had before—and to really take time to figure out the nuances because, ultimately, it’s a whole bunch of nuances that add up to make something special.” This album has a song for everyone and we are loving everything that it offers fans both lyrically and it’s rhythm.
Caught Up In The Country is now available everywhere you buy or stream music. Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music here on our ‘New Country Music’ playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.

Last month we introduced you to the new Opry video series, ‘The Write Stuff,’ where Opry Entertainment dives deeper into the stories behind the songwriting. Just last week, singer-songwriter, Ryan Kinder’s song “Stay” was the topic of discussion for a new episode of the mini-series.
The song was was co-written by Kinder, a NYCountry Swag 2018 Artist to Watch, with fellow songwriters, Fred Wilhelm, and Luke Sheets. Originally inspired by the power of Paul McCartney’s vocals, the trio created the epic song to match the delivery of a McCartney song. Wilhelm and Sheets shared that they knew that wanted to mimic that delivery with an artist in Nashville that could convey the same feelings, which led them to Kinder, who eventually went on to not only co-wrote the track, but later release it as his single back in 2018.
Kinder shared the real story about how the melody was created, while he was going to the bathroom, laughing, sharing, “I remember going to the bathroom, where all good idea comes from. And I started singing this melody…”
The gritty, romantic, and bluesy love song was created to convey the simple message of longing and aching for love or a lover. The men achieved that message through the heartfelt vocals, long- dragging notes, and the epic guitar solo. “The line that is the centerpiece of the song to me is “I know that I just can’t be alone right now,” that was kind of the idea and the sentiment we were trying to get across,” explained Wilhelm.
Sheets went on to share that Kinder playing guitar on the track added to it, “You speak more through the guitar than a lot of artists do. We played the solo over 120 times.” Each agreed that the song was an easy one to write and that the pieces came together pretty effortlessly.
Check out the video below to see the men further explain the songwriting process and clips of Kinder performing the song in the famed circle of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville.

If you have seen Russell Dickerson perform live then you know he is a ball full of energy, running, jumping and dancing around the stage. One song after another he brings the crowd to another level each and every time.
His latest single “Every Little Thing” which is currently climbing up the country music charts is another ode to his beautiful wife Kailey, who he just celebrated a six-year wedding anniversary with. Although the track was written by Dickerson with Parker Welling and Casey Brown about his wife, anyone who truly admires even the smallest quirks about their significant other can relate.
“Yeah, she’s Seattle and Sonoma / Runs on coffee and red wine / Easy like Sunday morning and wild like Saturday night / She’s 24-carat goodness, an angel’s all I see / She dresses up for everything, but she only dress down for me”
Released on Friday, Dickerson gave “Every Little Thing” a make-over, stripping it down to an acoustic version. Although it keeps the same mid-tempo pace, the newer version allows you to focus strictly on Dickerson’s delivery of each lyric.
To accompany the stripped version, you can watch a color-block video of the song on Spotify here. Check out the official music video for the track below.
“Every Little Thing” Stripped is now available everywhere you buy or stream music. Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music here on our ‘New Country Music’ playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.

Townes just released her version of Keith Urban’s hit single “Stupid Boy” from 2006 with her own style. Her raw and unshakeable voice hits home during those powerful verses and a strong chorus.
“I love this song so much. Keith Urban, his music and his live show have been so inspiring to me,” she shares in a recent press release. “I’ve always been such a big fan of his, and this song stuck with me from the first time I heard his version.”
Townes’ fans were not the only ones who loved the new song. Urban, rejoiced over her unique version of the track. “THANK YOU!!!!!! I LOOOOVE THIS VERSION!!! Kudos to you,” he wrote on Twitter. Being able to sing an Urban song is no easy task, especially with his intense vocals, but Townes has made it her own. She is one of many new artists on the rise and she’s setting the bar high. Between being apart of CMT’s Next Women of Country Class of 2019, opening for Dierks Bentley’s Burning Man Tour, and soon to be a part of Miranda Lambert’s Roadside Bars & Pink Guitars Tour, Townes is proving to be quite the talent. It was announced yesterday that she was also nominated for a CMT Music Video Award for Breakout Video of the Year for “Somebody’s Daughter”.
