Wesko Shares Brand New Song “Big Bad Love” Out Now

/in , , /by

Wesko shares new song, “Big Bad Love” out now, July 31st on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand-new track below.

Warner Records artist, Wesko is truly one to look out for. The singer-songwriter has talent for blending country, soul, and rock with swampy and ear-pleasing sounds into a cohesive song. With his latest release, Wesko moves away from the acoustic sounds first heard on his Familiar Spirits EP in favor of that country-rock style. “Big Bad Love” is officially out now.

Written by Wesko with Jesse Grommet and Emmi Elliot, “Big Bad Love” captures the listener’s attention from the moment it starts. According to a renecent press release the track, “follows a rolling stone finally surrendering to love, where whiskey, wine, five-and-dime roses and a leather-and-lace “shotgun rider” spin a blue-collar romance into a rock-tinged country burner.” If that isn’t alluring, we don’t know what it is!

“I wanna sip a little somethin’ strong // Put a leash round the hair of that dog // That bit me last night he gonna bite me again // Come on over baby come on in // I got 40 hours working worth of whiskey and wine // I bought a half dozen roses at the five and dime // I got a little something special on the radio // You could use something southern in your rock and roll // You’re wild my shoulder sitting devil // And im the pot cussin’ at the kettle // When we meet somewhere in between // A rockin mamma jamma and rolling stone // Awh when we get to gettin’ alone // They call it big bad love // Big bad love”

“Big Bad Love” is a song to listen to! If you have not yet jumped on the Wesko bandwagon, what are you waiting for?

Deerock Honors 30 Years of “Strawberry Wine” with Official Country-EDM Remix

/in , , /by

Deerock honors the 30th Anniversary of Deana Carter’s “Strawberry Wine” with an official Country-EDM remix, available now on all streaming platforms. Listen to the song below.

Deerock continues to prove that no one is blending country and EDM quite like he is. Today, the producer teamed up with country legend Deana Carter to release the first-ever official remix of her iconic hit, “Strawberry Wine,” just in time to celebrate the song’s 30th anniversary.

“I cannot believe it’s been 30 years!” Carter shared in a recent press release. “I am so grateful that ‘Strawberry Wine’ and my debut album have become the soundtrack of an era for so many people! I am blown away by all the fans that have carried this song through the years, passed it down and shared it with a whole new generation!”

For Deerock, the opportunity to put his own spin on one of country music’s most beloved songs was just as monumental. “Getting the opportunity to reimagine a song as iconic as ‘Strawberry Wine’ is incredibly special,” he shared. “I wanted to preserve everything people love about the original while giving it new life in a completely different space. I’m grateful to Deana and her team for trusting me with a song that means so much to so many people.”

The collaboration is another reminder of just how well Deerock understands both country music and dance music. Instead of taking away from what made “Strawberry Wine” a classic, he enhances it with euphoric production that feels fresh without losing the nostalgia of the original. It’s the perfect soundtrack for a summer drive, and another standout addition to Deerock’s growing catalog of country-EDM remixes. Be sure to give it a listen!

Who Is Tyce Delk? The Story Behind His Journey to Country Music

/in , , /by

Who is Tyce Delk? The singer-songwriter joined us to chat about his journey to country music. Get to know the rising artist here…

who-is-tyce-delk-emma-kate-golden

Tyce Delk // Photo credit: Emma Kate Golden

Quick Facts:

Full name – Tyce Delk
Birthdate – 08/05/2002
Hometown – Melrose, New Mexico
Current city – Melrose, New Mexico
Musical influences – Muscadine Bloodline, Turnpike Troubadours, Vince Gill, Marcus King, Olivia Dean
Label – River House Artists (RHA)
Current Single – “Woulda Been It”  (as of date of article: 07/27/2026)
The Beginning:

Today’s spotlight artist may be one of country music’s newest rising stars, but his journey started long before he ever stepped on stage. Tyce Delk is a hardworking, creative at heart. Keep reading to learn more about his story.

Growing up in east-central New Mexico, Delk was surrounded by both music and agriculture. A fourth-generation musician on his dad’s side and a fourth-generation farmer and rancher on both sides of his family, music was simply a part of everyday life. “Music has always been around and kind of been integrated into our family,” Delk shared. Still, music wasn’t always the plan.

Long before releasing music, the singer-songwriter was already writing songs. While working on the family ranch in high school, he kept lyrics in the same notebook where he logged his work hours, often finding inspiration while building fences, driving tractors, or simply observing the world around him.

He also collected a vast and wide ranger of musical influences. Growing up, his family listened to traditional country, western swing, and worship music, while artists like Vince Gill helped shape his melodic style. Outside of country music, he also found inspiration from artists like Maroon 5 and Bruno Mars, influences that still find their way into his music today.

After graduating high school, Delk went on to play college basketball before taking a job with an engineering firm. Looking for something to fill his free time after basketball ended, he went home, borrowed one of his dad’s guitars, and started teaching himself to play. The first song he learned on guitar was a Kolby Cooper song.

“It just kind of started going up from there,” he recalled. Although music had always been in the back of his mind, Delk admitted he never truly believed it could become his career. “It was always a thing that would be pretty fun to do,” he shared. “It was never anything that I thought for sure could happen.”

The Turning Point:

While songwriting and acoustic gigs slowly became a bigger part of his life, everything changed after Delk recorded a song called “Adeline.”

At first, though, no one heard it. “I cut ‘Adeline’ at the studio and then I sat on it for a year just because I was so unsure about it,” he shared. Eventually, he decided to take a chance on himself and release the song. It quickly became a viral hit on social media. “It just kind of did its thing,” shared the singer, adding, “We kind of had to decide right away if it’s just something that we wanted to do.”

Delk deciced to trade his pickup truck for a touring van, hanging up one career in favor of hitting the road. “It’s been a whirlwind for sure,” he admitted. “It’s definitely keeping me busy, but I like staying busy, and I like having to chase something.”

Now working alongside the team at River House Artists, Delk says he couldn’t be more grateful for where the journey has taken him. “Life is good,” he shared. “It’s a blessing, and I’m thankful to be where I’m at with the team and where I’m at in my career. I couldn’t think of a better spot to be.”

Today:

Flash forward to today, and Delk is continuing to build a catalog that reflects every side of who he is as an artist.

His latest project called Everything But Gone was intentionally crafted to showcase a variety of sounds and stories, from stripped-down back porch songs to soulful ballads and honky-tonk anthems. “I’ve always said that I want my catalog to touch all the bases,” Delk shared. Among his personal favorites from the project are the title track, “Everything But Gone,” and “Mind I Smoke.”

Most recently, Delk released “Would Have Been It,” a song inspired by something a friend said after going through a breakup. “He was like, ‘Man, if it was a perfect world, this would’ve been it,'” Delk recalled. The phrase stuck with him, eventually becoming the foundation for one of his newest songs.

The singer-songwriter also recently joined forces with fellow singer-songwriter, Ashland Craft. “My manger texted me and was like, ‘Hey, would you be open to doing a song with Ashland?’ At the time I didn’t know much about [her],” he shared, adding, “When I started kind of listening to her music, I was like, ‘Yeah, this would be awesome.”

“Doesn’t Have To Be That Way” was quickly born.  “The song that we did together, I don’t think it could’ve been more perfect, and that song just turned out way, way better than I could have imagined. I was super, super thankful for that,” shared Delk.

Looking ahead, fans can expect plenty more music and even more time on the road. With shows booked nearly every weekend and new songs already lined up for release, Delk says he’s especially excited about what’s coming next.

“We’re definitely staying on the road, staying busy,” he shared. “I’m really, really excited for these next two songs.” Stay tuned!

Lakelin Lemmings Self-titled Debut Album

/in , , /by

Lakelin Lemmings’ self-titled debut album, Lakelin Lemmings is out now, July 24th on all streaming platforms. Take a listen and read our full review below.

For Lakelin Lemmings, her debut album is the perfect time capsule. It manages to capture all the confusion and possibility of young adulthood, a clear snapshot of a singer caught between her teenage years and adulthood. On her debut, she encapsulates the feelings of first love and first loss, broken hearts, grappling with her faith, small town living, and everything in between.

Lemmings co-wrote 15 of the album’s 16 tracks, evidenced through the Tennessee native’s heartfelt delivery. Released via Quartz Hill Records, the debut takes listeners on a journey that’s straight from the pages of the 20-year-old’s journal. While her voice has the breezy warmth and approachability of country’s most beloved 90s icons, her songwriting prowess hearkens back to the early authenticity of a young Taylor Swift or Kelsea Ballerini.

The album opens with “American Dreamin’,” an irresistible introduction that establishes the themes woven throughout the record. Celebrating family, faith, and her rural upbringing, Lemmings sings with pride about the values that shaped her, creating an instantly relatable portrait of small-town America.

“Hometown touchdown Friday, Daddy’s girl raised up the right way // Four wheels flyin’ down the highway, // Look out world, here I come // Born country always gonna be it, Good book you bet I believe it // Red, white, and blue sky reachin’, Small town American dreamin’”

On “Bad Boy Good” and “There Goes the Cowboy,” she finds herself irresistibly drawn to men she knows are trouble, but can’t resist. The former cleverly admits, “I need a man, I don’t need a mission,” while the latter captures the frustration of someone who continually rides in and out of her life.

Despite her young age, it’s clear Lemmings has endured her fair share of heartbreak, reflected on songs like “I Remember Us,” “I’m Over You,” and “Get Around Boy.” While “Remember” finds her longing for the past, “Over You” is a swooning country waltz that finds her in denial as she tries to move on.

“I’m doin’ better since you’ve been gone// I’ve got it together, already moved on// The past is the past and taking you back// Boy that ain’t something that I’d ever do //Fires don’t burn and I’m over you”

Meanwhile, “Break Up Songs” offers one of the album’s most clever lyrics. With its steel guitars and 90s influences, she namedrops famous song titles, before finally leaning into the healing power of heartbreak. “Who wants to hear about a bad goodbye?” she asks, voice laced with emotion.

Likewise, “Get Around Boy” offers a refreshing twist on the traditional breakup song. It’s a swinging uptempo about a high school love who was destined to stay, while she was destined to leave. Despite that, she keeps him with her wherever she travels, creating one of the album’s most beautifully bittersweet moments.

“On a beach out in California// In my jeep passing through Sedona, // Florida Keys you wouldn’t believe // All the roads that you’ve been down boy, // From New England to Mississippi // You’re always right here with me // For someone who said they’d never leave that Tennessee town // You sure get around boy”

While there’s heartache on the LP, there’s also spunk and self-assurance. “He Ain’t Coming Back” offers one of the collection’s sassiest moments, driving guitars punctuating her moving on from an ex. Meanwhile, “Tell Me More” and “What Are We Doing” find her looking to find her place in a relationship, sometimes falling prey to a man who says all the right things.

It’s not all romance and broken hearts on her debut project. “Parking Lot” affectionately captures the simplicity of small-town teenage life, while “Life of Mine” celebrates her faith in God and her happiness in life. It borrows inspiration from the classic hymn “This Little Light of Mine” to create a joyful celebration of gratitude and belief. “I Drive a Truck” showcases another side of Lemmings, balancing her girly side with grit as she proudly proclaims, “Six days a week, I’m boots over heels.”

Two of the album’s most spectacular and poignant moments come in the most vulnerable: “I Ain’t for Everybody” and “19 and Single.” On the former, she realizes that she doesn’t need acceptance from everyone, but will one day find it from one special person. “I may not be for everybody,” she admits. “But for somebody I’m the one.”

Similarly, “19 and Single” turns insecurity into empowerment as she realizes that there’s nothing wrong with being single. While she grapples with being “19 and Single,” the track is a lesson in trust and timing for women of all ages struggling with their singledom.

The album concludes with “Keep the Faith,” the only song on the album not written by Lemmings. “I mostly write my own songs, but when ‘Keep the Faith’ was pitched to me, I fell in love with the song because it has such a powerful message,” shares Lemmings in a statement. “It spoke to my own Christian faith and my belief that when days are hard, you’ve just got to keep on praying, keep on believing and keep on going. With everything that’s currently happening in the world, no matter what your religious or political beliefs are, we all need to keep the faith right now.” 

For Lakelin Lemmings, her debut project is raw, personal, and full of potential. She invites listeners in, opens up, and enraptures them for sixteen powerful songs that are sure to make her a superstar.
