Dylan Marlowe Drops Two New Songs “Grew Up Country” & “Empty Shotgun”

Dylan Marlowe drops two new songs “Grew Up Country” and “Empty Shotgun,” out now, March 23rd, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new tracks below.

Newly signed recording-artist, Dylan Marlowe is giving fans a double taste of his undeniable charm and talent. The singer-songwriter drops two brand new songs, “Grew Up Country” and “Empty Shotgun (Mr. Mechanic)” out today.

The first of the two tracks, “Grew Up Country,” is Marlowe’s love letter to his hometown. While many artists talk about their country roots and how proud they are to be from their hometowns, Marlowe’s approach is fresh, innovative, and feels authentic to his artistry.

“I wouldn’t have it any other way, thank God I was born and raised // Down there where the street ends and the creek bends // Weekends, we’d spend our money on // Cold beers from the county store, a couple inches on a 4×4 // Lord knows there’s a lot of ways that we coulda came up, buddy //But I’m glad we grew up country”

The singer’s second new song, “Empty Shotgun (Mr. Mechanic)” is a songwriter’s song. Written by Marlowe with Seth Ennis and Joe Fox, the artist uses double meanings and wordplay to convey his heartbreak. In its most simplistic form, the new song is as relatable as they come, while still being clever.

“Ain’t like there’s nothing in the tank // It’s full of 87 // I don’t think it’s what you think // Yeah, this thing runs like heaven // If you wanna know why // I can’t drive // When I climb in this truck // Yeah, it’s got a cab full of memories // And an empty shotgun”

Although his career is still young, Marlowe proves with each and every release that he can hang with the best of them. The singer-songwriter knows how to craft a meaningful lyric and relays each message he writes with incredible ability and authentic vulnerability.

Who Is Chapel Hart? The Story Behind Their Journey to Country Music

Who is Chapel Hart? The trio joined us to chat about their journey to country music. Get to know the all-female, familial trio here…

who-is-chapel-hart

Quick Facts:

Full Name – Chapel Hart (Danica Hart, Devynn Hart, Trea Swindle)
Hometown – Poplarville, Mississippi
Current City – New Orleans, Louisiana
Label – JT3D
Latest Release – “Glory Days” (*as of date of article: 03/20/2023)

The Beginning:

Today we are excited to share the story behind the incredible all-female trio, Chapel Hart. The exciting country band is comprised of three family members, sisters Danica and Devynn Hart, and their cousin Trea Swindle. Together the ladies have created a beautiful legacy through music.

The women grew up in Poplarville, Mississippi, where music was at the forefront of each of their childhoods. “While we do have different stories, they all kind of intersect because Des is my sister and Tre’s our first cousin. We all come from the same family and we all have a very similar background,” they began. “We grew up in a very musical family. We had a huge family. My grandparents had 17 children and there are 108 cousins, and everything was surrounded by music.”

The women behind Chapel Hart even shared that in retrospect it feels like they grew up in a musical. “Anything you can name… birthdays, weddings, divorces, graduations, you name it, at some point, there was bound to be a piano to fly out of there or bucket drums, and then there was music.”

Despite listening to a bit of everything, due to their Mississippi roots, country music was the most prominent genre and influence. “We always say that there’s like a timeframe. Anywhere from 1913 to like 1980 or 90 is going to be Tre’s specialty and then all things 90s, early 2000s is me, and then Dev keeps up with all the newer stuff in country music, so we’ve got it all covered.”

The Turning Point:

While it was clear that music was each of their callings, Chapel Hart did not become what it is now until much later. “Growing up in Poplarville, Mississippi really prepared us for country music. If you were on the bus in the morning time, it was country music, if you were in school, it was country music, if you got a job and worked, it was country music,” shared the songstresses. Adding later, “We also lived those experiences.”

Chapel Hart started out in New Orleans as a duo. “It started out with just Danica and Trea kind of busking on the streets of New Orleans, so they kind of made their way around New Orleans and the music scene there,” began Devynn,  “And then in 2018, I lost my job, so I didn’t really know what I was going to do, so I moved down to New Orleans and started singing with them.”

While grinding both in New Orleans and Nashville, Tennessee, doors started opening for the women. They secured a spot in CMT Next Women of Country Class of 2021 and ultimately found themselves auditioning for the popular talent show, America’s Got Talent (AGT). “We almost didn’t even audition for AGT because it has a bit of a negative stigma in the music community […] We were supposed to be traveling with the Indigo Girls, and then their camp got closed down for Covid, so we were like why not?,” explained Danica. She later added, “I always say ‘thank god that we did’ because I feel like it was the audition heard around the world.”

According to Chapel Hart, “AGT was the moment that all the grinding had led up to, it was the moment that everything exploded, and it’s starting to pay off for all the years we played the shows with 25 people there.”

Of course, America fell in love with their audition song, an original called “You Can Have Him, Jolene.” “People refer to it as a part 2 of “Jolene,” so it feels like we’re a part of country music history.”

Today:

Flash forward to the present day, Chapel Hart continues to build on the momentum that their hard work and AGT helped them build. With an album coming out soon and a tour happening now, the singer-songwriters are showing no signs of slowing down.

In order to continue to give music to fans, the women even released the tour’s namesake song, “Glory Days.” The single is a fun and relatable song that is hard not to fall in love with. “We couldn’t kick off the Glory Days Tour without at least giving the people the song that inspired it all,” shared Chapel Hart. “The song is literally about the good old days, where you sit around and talk with your friends about things 30 years from now, but more so it just kind of shines the light on the fact that most of us are living through our glory days now, and it’s a reminder to seize the moment.”

Like all of Chapel Hart’s music thus far, “Glory Days” is an introspective and honest portrayal of the women’s experiences thus far. “We fell in love with country music because of the story and how you can just find yourself right smack dab in the middle of the story,” and that sentiment truly embodies the single and their philosophy on music.

As we anticipate the next album, fans can look forward to a lot more from the singers. As they put it themselves, “Fans should be expecting more Chapel Hart. We are diving deeper, we’re putting together this album that is another collection of life experiences. What our goal was is to show fans a glimpse into this journey.”

In what feels like a candid response to Kelsea Ballerini’s surprise EP, Morgan Evans is speaking his truth through his new music. The Australian singer-songwriter is opening up about his divorce and future in his new song, “On My Own Again,” out today.

Written by Evans with Zach Kale and Geoff Warburton, “On My Own Again” follows the viral single, “Over For You.” Although lyrically, the song is melancholy, there is also an added hint of hope complemented by some island sounds. Evans does an exquisite just of emoting through song, while also leaving the listener with a sense that all will be okay, even though everything is changing.

“The pictures in my head are all of her I’m taking with me // The rest of it, I left back in that house // Tomorrow when she wakes up I wonder if she’ll miss me // This time I ain’t hanging round to find out // I’m gonna drive until the wheels fall of this old truck in my heart // If forever’s gonna end like that I guess I’d better start // The rest of my life like the best time’s up around the bend // Oh, on my own again”

Evans seems to be in the creative spirit, prioritizing connecting with fans and releasing new music. While “Over For You” felt heartbreakingly beautiful, “On My Own Again” feels real, honest, and like there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Fans of Evans should be excited for what is in store for the artist next!

Country music duo, Seaforth are back with a song that will make any country fan swoon. On the heels of their first ever U.S. headlining tour, Seaforth are sharing a brand new song called, “I Can’t Take You Anywhere,” a song that is sure to be a hit with fans.

According to Seaforth’s Tom Jordan and Mitch Thompson, “I Can’t Take You Anywhere” is a music unleveling for them, as they play with their sound in a new and exciting way. “This song is essentially about being so into someone that you can’t help but get distracted by how good they look and end up canceling plans just to be with them,” they shared in a recent press release. “Musically and lyrically, it’s a bit different for us, and it feels like a progression. We remember diving in pretty deep on the lyrics and taking our time getting the phrasing and internal rhymes right the day we wrote it.”

“I can’t take you anywhere when you’re looking like that // I know we got plans but forget ’em // I don’t really care when you zip up that dress, I drop dead // I wanna get you home before we even out the door // Wanna tell your friends we can’t make it anymore // Every time your eyes look that way // Into mine, there’s one thing on my mind // Tonight, I swear I can’t take you anywhere”

“I Can’t Take You Anywhere” is the type of song that will make people who are in love appreciate their partners and reinforce for people who are single that real love like this exists. The new song is exciting and perfect for the live stage. Seaforth knocked it out of the park with this new release!

Curb Records recording artist, Harper Grace is sharing her talent and personality with fans on her new debut release. Today, Grace drops her brand new song, “Sparkle.” The song showcases her songwriting prowess, her vocal ability, and her Texan roots.

Written by Grace with Alex Kline and Scott Stepakoff, “Sparkle” is a song anyone can relate to. Clearly driven from her Texas roots, the debut song showcases all that is unique about the singer.

“Like rhinestones on blue jeans // Like neon on a sign // Like headlines down a dirt road, that’s the way I shine // I ain’t no diamond on a gold band // Sitting real pretty on my left hand // Got a little rust on my heart // Well that’s just my kind of sparkle”

Grace is an exciting up-and-coming artist in country music right now. “Sparkle” is just the beginning for the songstress.

Here Are All of Eric Church’s Number One Songs in His Catalog

Here are all of Eric Church’s number one songs on country radio in his music catalog. The singer-songwriter has ten number ones to his name, seven as a solo artist and three as a featured artist.

We love reminiscing about all the great country music to hit country radio over the last few years. In our brand new series, we’re looking back on the songs that made it to the top of the country airplay charts. Today, we’re highlighting songs in Eric Church’s long career that hit the number one spot.

 

“Drink In My Hand” – Chief, 2011

Although his debut album came out in 2006, it took Church nearly five years and ten singles to reach the number one spot. This upbeat, rocking tune is the perfect song to start your weekend with.

 

“Springsteen” – Chief, 2011

Going 6x-Platinum, “Springsteen” is Church’s biggest song to date. The reflective-track brings the singer and its listeners back to their younger days. Church points out that one simple melody can represent an entire moment in time.

 

“Give Me Back My Hometown” – The Outsiders, 2014

The lead single off his fourth studio album, Church sings about how a failed relationship ruined the place he calls home. Now, his favorite spots of town are tainted with her memory. 

 

“Talladega” – The Outsiders, 2014

An ode to one of the south’s most popular sporting events. The singer recalls the joys of headed down to Alabama with his boys the summer after their senior year. As he is stuck in the real-world now, he longs for the nights where his only concern was his favorite racer crossing the finish line.

 

“Record Year” – Mr. Misunderstood, 2016

Most breakups songs are depressing and show the artist’s vulnerability; this is not one of those. In this track, Church realizes he’s better off without her. “Record Year” has a double meaning—it’s one of his best years and a year he had time to listen to all his old records from George Jones to Waylon Jennings. 

 

“Some of It” – Desperate Man, 2018

In this mid-tempo track, Church talks about lessons learned—some you learn the hard way, through heartbreak, or on a page. Some lessons you never use, but there’s something to be said for some of them.

 

“Hell of a View” – Soul, 2021

It’s hard to believe that an artist as popular and well-respected as Eric Church only has seven solo number ones to name; “Hell of a View” is his most recent hit. The singer discusses the rush he gets from this fun, reckless love. 

 

With seven number ones under his belt as a solo artist, Church also adds three hit songs as a featured artist. “The Only Way I Know” with Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan; “Raise ‘Em Up” with Keith Urban; and “Does To Me” with Luke Combs.
