Mitchell Tenpenny’s new song, “Horseshoes and Hand Grenades” is out now, March 4th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.
Mitchell Tenpenny is one of those artists who has completely mastered his signature sound. From hits like “To Do Us It Did” and “Drunk Me,” every song he releases is an enticing track. Today, the singer-songwriter dropped another brand new song called “Horseshoes and Hand Grenades.”
Written by Tenpenny with Dallas Wilson, the track is relatable and heartfelt. “Horseshoes and Hand Grenades” is a clever title to describe how it feels to be so close to the potential of love or a relationship. Each verse feels like a story unfolding, adding to the overall ambiance of the song.
“I guess we were just as close as a first kiss // Closer to God when you’re down on your knees and praying // Yeah, close like a secret, you swore you would keep // But somehow you let it slip away // So close you can feel it, it hurts when it’s real // ‘Cause the other don’t feel the same // Guess close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades // Horseshoes and hand grenades”
The song marks the first installment of Tenpenny’s upcoming project, The Low Light Sessions. We are excited to see how fans react to the new music!

Filmore’s new song, “Johnny Got A Girl” is out now, March 4th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.
Filmore fans are finally having their wishes granted for long-awaited new music from the artist. With multiple new releases expected over the coming weeks, “Johnny Got A Girl” is Filmore’s latest single, available now Friday, March 4th.
“Johnny Got A Girl” is about the loss of a longtime friend whose memories and presence are deeply missed, but maybe not for the reasons you’d expect – and certainly not what his friends expected. In a humorous play on words, Filmore pays tribute to his friend who chose a girl over beers with the boys. It doesn’t come from a place of anger, but more from one of disbelief with some underlying sadness. They know their buddy might have lost his spot at the bar for good, but for now, they just don’t know how in the world, Johnny got a girl.
“Johnny Got a Girl // And I lost a friend // Can’t even blame em // She’s a ten out of ten // Must be out of her mind // She’s out of his league // And since he’s been with her // haven’t seen him in weeks // I got no one to drink with, fish with, pull my truck out the ditch with // Man, I don’t know how in the World // Johnny Got A Girl”
Filmore drops new song “Johnny Got A Girl,” out now.

LOCASH’s new song, “Beach Boys” is out now, March 4th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new track below.
LOCASH is joined by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston of The Beach Boys on their new single – which just so happens to share a name with the iconic band.
The duo was invited to join The Beach Boys (and John Stamos) on stage to a sold-out show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium back in February to perform “Beach Boys” live for the first time, ahead of its release and as a part of The Beach Boys 60th anniversary celebration.
“Beach Boys” was originally released as a solo version on LOCASH’s WOODS & WATER – EP before it found its way to The Beach Boys themselves. The song is written by LOCASH’s Chris Lucas and Preston Brust, alongside Dallas Wilson, Jared Mullins, Brian Wilson, and Mike Love.
On how the song and the collaboration came together, Brust shares: “The day we wrote ‘Beach Boys,’ I remember Chris and I dreaming of recording it with The Beach Boys. We never imagined that they’d hear it, let alone get the chance to lay down our parts with Mike [Love] and Bruce [Johnston] and actually feel like we were a part of a group that we’ve idolized for so long! It’s crazy how it all became a reality and now the fun really begins!”
Love, of The Beach Boys, then shared: “We had a blast collaborating with Chris and Preston of LOCASH! The song is so hooky – I can’t get it out of my head. I love mixing it up! Country Rock met Surf Rock and created a fun summer hit!”
“Beach Boys” opens with the classic hook from The Beach Boys’ iconic hit, “I Get Around” and continues to mesh The Beach Boy’s chill summer vibes with LOCASH’s outlaw country style and energy. In a song where the beach meets backwoods (or rather, woods meet water), you can’t help but want to drop what you’re doing and head for the beach.
“Let’s take the country to the beach boys // trade that red dirt in for sand // Show ‘em how we Tennessee boys // Catch a Jon boat buzz on a Catamaran // And get a little bit of red on my redneck // Drop a lime in the bottom of a long neck // Find a boat that floats and get shipwrecked // With some local honey // Let’s take the country to the beach boys”
LOCASH is nominated for Duo of the Year at the 57th Academy of Country Music Awards, live from Las Vegas on Monday, March 7th. LOCASH’s WOODS & WATER TOUR 2022 kicks off tonight, March 4th in West Chester, OH and has 21 more dates to follow including Wildwood, NY on June 19th as part of the Barefoot Country Music Fest.
LOCASH collaborate with Mike Love and Bruce Johnston on new rendition of their song “Beach Boys.”

Nashvillains debut album, Tumbling Down is out now, March 4th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new album below.
Nashvillains are an act you are going to want to remember! Comprised of Troy Johnson, Scott Lindsey, and Brett Boyett, the trio just released their debut record. The country-rock album, Tumbling Down is out now.
Chock-full of incredible songs, Tumbling Down is one of the most unique records out there right now. Unlike most records in the country genre, the album is meant to be listened to from start to finish. According to the band members, “It’s a concept album, so there’s an overall story and an arc to the entire album, so each song relates to the next one.” Band member, Lindsey adds, “Our original inspiration was to tell a story about a man that has made bad decisions that have sent his life into a downward spiral. In three simple words, the album is beautiful, dramatic, and classic.”
The record kicks off with the track, “Devil Don’t Sleep.” The song depicts the struggles the protagonist is going through – feeling like a song straight out of a movie. The album progresses to the next two songs, “Standing In The Fire” and the title track and lead single, “Tumbling Down.” The former is an eerie slow burn. Johnson’s vocals are haunting in the best way possible. Similarly, “Tumbling Down” is a ballad that depicts the depths a person can fall to. Additionally, the instrumentation on this song is a darker version of more traditional country music.
“Every road is just a lonely old blacktop // Heading someplace you’ve already been // Pound of dust on your shoes // Sunburn on your neck // And memories in your head you can’t forget // Oooh oooh ooh”
The Nashvillains continue to play with the instrumentation on the groovy, blues-heavy, “Baby Keeps Killing Me.” On “Bonita,” the group members introduce a gothic, yet Latin flair to their already enticing project.
The band members continue to play with their songs both melodically and sonically on “There To Catch Me” and “Love Is Pain.” The former brings it back to traditional country music, while keeping the dark and deep guitars throughout the rhythm. The latter broadens the rock music elements of the record.
The album concludes with “Chickasaw Bayou” and “Don’t Let Me Hang.” On “Chickasaw Bayou,” the Nashvillains’ declare an end to the suffering expressed throughout the tracks before. “Don’t Let Me Hang” is a plea to God to bring salvation and end to the suffering. Although dark, the song is the perfect way to end the cohesive and incredible story that unfolded throughout the record.
Overall the Nashvillains debut record is a unique masterpiece. The trio managed to create a project that is delightfully unlike anything else in the genre right now. The instrumentation, the lyrics, the story-telling, and the relatability are all top-notch. Congrats to Nashvillains on their killer debut!

Who Are the Nashvillains? The country-rock trio joined us to chat about their journey to country music. Get to know the rising stars here…

The Beginning:
Today our spotlight shines on one of the most unique acts in country music right now. The Nashvillains, comprised of three incredible musicians, Troy Johnson, Brett Boyett, and Scott Lindsey are a band you are going to want to know about ASAP. The trio is a true gift to music fans.
Johnson, Boyett, and Scott were all primed for success in the music industry at an early age. They all lived full and prosperous lives, prior to forming their band. Nashvillains’ lead singer, Johnson has been playing music all his life. “I have always done it since the age of 5, I kind of woke up singing and I just haven’t stopped. Music has always been the trajectory of my life.” The singer headed to Belmont University in Nashville for college and has been cutting his teeth in the industry since.
Scott also attended Belmont University around the same time. “I’m originally from a place called Beaver Dam, Kentucky, in the heart of bluegrass music,” shared the band member. “I was raised on music and I thought everyone played music, baseball, and basketball growing up.” Scott grew up heading to writes in Nashville with his father, as well as, playing gigs at honky-tonks in music city at as early as sixteen.
Nashvillains’ guitar player and record producer, Boyett got his start in his home state of Colorado. The artist even studied classical guitar, when he attended college in Texas. “I was playing the country circuit in Texas and I was writing songs and he encouraged me to move to Nashville,” shared Boyett about the encouragement he got from George Jones’ bass player. The artist also played in a rock band in New York City, but it was in Los Angeles, where he really honed his skills as a composer and as a songwriter.
Boyett’s faithful move to LA, where he worked on shows like Reba and wrote and produced, the highly-acclaimed feature ‘Forever My Girl’, was the start of the Nashvillains. He just did not know it yet!
The Turning Point:
While working on Forever My Girl, Boyett hired Johnson to sing the demos and background vocals. The two immediately bonded and formed a working friendship. Boyett also was introduced to Scott, during the same time in his life. “We hit it off and I started talking about how I was moving back to Nashville and I wanted to work with this singer I had been using for demos, Troy Johnson, and he was like, ‘oh yeah, I know Troy. We write for the same publishing company.'”
As it turned out, both Scott and Johnson had offices across the hall from one another at the publishing company and knew each other well. After the trio all became friends, Boyett finally pitched his idea of the Nashvillains to the men. “I had this idea of the Nashvillains, this kind of dark, country, cinematic country thing and we all got together,” shared Boyett.
After some convincing, both Scott and Johnson were on board, and the trio that is Nashvillains was born.
Today:
Fans can look forward to the Nashvillains debut album Tumbling Down coming out this Friday, March 4th. “I think that our uniqueness comes from the fact that we actually did draw from each other’s unique backgrounds,” shared the trio. “There’s a lot of different influences in this band. We all three have such diverse backgrounds with where we are from and the music we grew up on.”
The record is a complete concept album that is a unique conglomerate of everything that makes the trio mesh together effortlessly.“We’re all kinda musicologists in a sense that we get all the genres, but we each have a different proclivity to play. And I think because of that a push and pull that’s what creates the [Nashvillains.]”
Tumbling Down is both unique and relatable, begging listeners to listen to the project from start to finish. “One of the coolest things about this is that people should listen to the album from start to finish. It’s a concept album, so there’s an overall story and an arc to the entire album, so each song relates to the next one,” begins the band. “We hadn’t heard of anyone else doing that in country music, so we thought that might be a really cool approach to take with this and we had a pretty good story that we thought would work and we kind of wrote around that.”
Fans can also anticipate unique instrumentation to go along with the rock-country vibes of the upcoming project.“I think we’ve really embodied the name ‘Nashvillains.’ We’re definitely country and we’re definitely based in Nashville, but we sort of have a skewed view of what the Nashvillains sound is and we can kinda explore.”
Country music fans can look forward to the trio supporting the record with tour dates in the upcoming months. Until then, make sure you check back this Friday for our full review of the record!

Both releases showcase Montana’s traditional country roots. “Good By Me” and “I Ain’t Ashamed” are two songs fans are going to want to add to their playlist.

“When this old world goes dark // You can’t let it break your heart // Or you can be the spark and help them see // What the hell do I know // I’m just a one-man show // Bummin’ round and round on the breeze // Seeing good folks doing good things // And a bad guy that’s all good by me”
“I Ain’t Ashamed” is a more pensive and introspective song, while “Good By Me” is an outward expression of compassion and kindness. “I Ain’t Ashamed” features Montana being authentic. He prides himself on staying true to his values and his heart.
“I ain’t ashamed of the way I was raised // I ain’t ashamed of the choices I’m made // Just writing my story // I’m good with no glory // Long as I go out it on place // I ain’t ashamed”

Teddy Robb’s brand new EP, Get Away With It, is out now, February 25th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new music below and check out our full review.
For Monument Recording artist Teddy Robb, the Get Away With It EP is a natural follow up to his 2020 self-titled offering. Featuring the hit “Really Shouldn’t Drink Around You,” the debut EP introduced Robb, while the follow-up shows he’s here to stay. Interestingly, there were times during the past two years that Robb wasn’t sure if that was the case.
Completed during the pandemic, the singer-songwriter found himself at a turning point during the making of this record. “Everything was written from a place of reflection,” He says. “The whole EP came together during the pandemic when I spent a lot of time looking back on my life. I was forced to look at my career and say, ‘Do I think that music is a viable option?’ And ‘no’ was just not an acceptable answer.”
“Teddy has worked so hard to raise the bar as a writer and performer. His work ethic has really blown my mind. He’s the first one in the studio, and the last to leave,” shares Monument Records Co-President Shane McAnally in a statement. ““Whiskey Can’t” is proof of the time and passion he has poured into his craft.”
That track opens the EP in style, setting the stage for a collection that remains true to Robb’s sound, yet shows natural growth. He’s not chasing musical trends here, but honing his country sound. Written by Robb with Kelly Archer, Pete Good, Josh Jenkins, and Brandon Ratcliff, the track is about a woman who gives him a stronger buzz than any drink could. While he knows the buzz of whiskey, this is something different and special.
“’Cause I’ve been three sheets to the wind// But I ain’t never been this drunk// Never had a harder time getting out of bed// Or waking up,” He sings. “I feel something different// When I got you in my hands// There ain’t a better buzz// Girl, you do what the whiskey can’t.”
Robb is nostalgic on the truck song “1500,” which is far from the typical beers and tailgate track. Instead, it’s an ode to his teenage days spent in a special truck. Written by Robb, Good, Ratcliff, and Dave Turnbull, the idea of a truck song was originally scoffed at by Robb’s co-writers, but it was something the Ohio native believed in. “I said, ‘Look I know there’s a lot of truck songs, but I want to do my take on it.’” Shared Robb in a statement. “The first line we spit out was, ‘I was 16 in a 1500,’ and immediately we were like that’s the song right there.”
On “Get Away With It,” Robb shows his softer, more vulnerable side, wondering how he let a girl break his heart. On the twangy track, he admits that he’s usually the runner in relationships, but this time, the tables have turned.
“I’m the one that’s supposed to run, but I didn’t.” He admits. “Now you’re the one that I’m missing// and I’m the one that fell apart// Yeah you’re the one that got away// And stole my heart// but how’d you get away with it?”
“Middle of Nowhere” sees Robb still heartbroken, finding himself in a bar wondering about the one that got away. The dark, moody track throws a clever lyric over heavier instrumentation and guitar than we’re used to from the singer, but it works flawlessly here. He’s trying to move on with a new girl, but admits that he may be in the “middle of the night, middle of a bar, middle of kissing somebody new,” but he’s also in the “middle of nowhere over you.”
The EP concludes with “Cigarettes’ll Kill Ya,” a clever twist on the broken-hearted tracks. It takes a cigarette to remind him of the one who got away, as he sings:
“That secondhand smoke// From the red and black cloves// Same ones we used to burn// When we’d get a little loaded// Up on a Friday, buzzing the night away// Damn, you were one in a million// Now, I’m sitting right here in a missing you haze// Hurts a little more with every drag that she’s taking// Baby I’m dying just to be with you// Yep, cigarettes’ll kill ya”
For Teddy Robb, the Get Away With It EP was born from a place of reflection during the pandemic, and it’s a solid five-song collection that proves the singer-songwriter has a bright future ahead.

Matt Roy releases his debut EP, Wildflower, out now, February 25th on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new music below and check out our full review.
Every now and then we come across a debut project that we absolutely love! Matt Roy’s new EP, Wildflower is one of those projects. The singer-songwriter captivated us with the five-song record. Each song provides fans with an intricate look into Roy’s unique artistry and talent.
Beginning with, “Easy To Find,” Roy showcases his personality and songwriting prowess. The debut single is the perfect introduction into the singer-songwriter’s one-of-a-kind talent. Roy’s other previously released song, “That Town, That Truck, That Song” is also featured on this EP. The song is nostalgia wrapped up in a pretty melody.
“Yeah that Main Street, midnight red light blinking // That hand me down two tone // Ford oil leaking // That long neck bottle for a microphone singing // In that town, that truck, that song // You learned every word on that burnt CD // I learned every curve on that torn bench seat // Last I heard you were in Tennessee // But to me, you’ll always be // In that town, that truck, that song”
Wildflower also boasts three brand new songs. “Morning In New Orleans,” the second song off the project is a true masterclass in songwriting. The lyrics weave through you, as you listen to the story unfold. The hook and the chorus drop in an unexpected way that keeps you wanting more.
The final two tracks are quite possibly our favorites on the record. “When You Lose Someone” is a heartbreaking ballad. The emotions this song brings to the forefront are raw and painful, yet relatable and cathartic. Roy’s vocals soar on the beautifully-crafted song.
“When you lose someone // Day turns to night, night turns to day // The grass grows knee-high in the yard // The razor don’t come near your face // When you lose someone // You kick yourself for things you did, but it’s funny how your memory only plays the greatest hits // When you lose someone”
The record culminates with the title track, “Wildflower.’ Quite possibly, one of the most personal on the project, Roy lets fans into the inner workings of his vices and his heart. The deeply passionate love song is worth the wait.
Overall, Roy’s debut EP is one of our favorites of the year so far. His ability to draw the listener in rivals any artist out there today. Wildflower is a true work of art that all fans of music should listen to.
Matt Roy’s debut EP, ‘Wildflower’ is officially here!
