Seaforth Release Brand New Track “Talk About”

Seaforth, have released their latest brand new track, “Talk About” available on all streaming platforms now.

The Australian pop-country duo of Mitch Thompson and Tom Jordan, better known as Seaforth just released a new song titled “Talk About.” This is the follow up to their romantic ballad “Everything Falls for You,” released on May 29th. While that track focused on the feelings towards a particular girl, “Talk About” is, ironically, all about the physical side of the relationship.

The track starts off slow, describing the tension between these two individuals, and picks up when the chorus comes around. The singer explains everything he wants to do with this woman, and none of it involves talking and the line “I wanna speak your body language” is a clever play on words.

A banjo backs the very poppy and upbeat tempo of this track, making it fun to sing along to for fans of all genres. With songs such as this one, Thompson and Jordan are molding their sound into one that fans of Dan + Shay, Chris Lane, and Brett Young would love.

Talk About Seaforth

“I kinda want your hands up on me / We got a lot to talk about / We both know what we’re playing with / if we put our lips together / I wanna speak your body language / We got a lot to talk about”

Seaforth did the actual talking in their track “Talk to Me,” on their debut EP, Love That released back in April of 2019. All this talking inspired the duo to create their own talk show. You can find their hilarious interview with their good friend, Mitchell Tenpenny on their Instagram page.

Thompson and Jordan grew up together in Seaforth, Australia. They were classmates, played on the same soccer team, and shared a love for music. Before moving to Nashville and signing with Sony Records, the two played weddings for cash. Learn more about them in our NYCS Swag Spotlight and in our video interview below.

Niko Moon Releases Intimate Track “Dance With Me”

Niko Moon released a brand new track, “Dance With Me” available on all streaming platforms now.

Up and coming country artist, Niko Moon, known for his feel-good hits such as “Good Time” and “Paradise To Me,” released a new track titled “Dance With Me.” Although this track brings a similar mood, he would like the party to be much more intimate this time; just him and this new girl.

In the track, the lyrics portray a trip to Las Vegas that is not going well at all,  until the singer lays eyes on this woman, and suddenly he does not care about how bad he is doing at the casino. He then tests his luck and tries to persuade her to hit the town with him because, as the saying goes, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

Something ‘bout the way you look tonight / shining brighter than those neon, Vegas lights / got me feeling like I wanna roll the dice / and try my luck with you

Niko Moon New Song Dance With Me

Although Moon’s debut EP, Good Time was just released this past February, he is not new to country music. He has worked with Zac Brown Band in the past, writing, and produced songs such as “Beautiful Drug,” “Homegrown,” “Loving You Easy,” and many more. Moon’s style is a little different and at face value, it should not work—sprinkling his calm, subtle voice-over hip-hop, snap-track beat, acoustic strings, and an overall beach vibe–but somehow it does perfectly, making him so unique in this industry. We look forward to what is next for this very talented songwriter, producer, and now, entertainer.

Adam Doleac Treats Fans to “Another” Brand New Song

Adam Doleac surprised fans with a new song, “Another”, available on all streaming platforms now.

After just releasing “Meet Me in the City,” last week, Adam Doleac is keeping the momentum going with an additional brand new track. Today, the singer introduced us to another vibe and side of his music with a new single entitled “Another.”

Both songs definitely feel like they are apart of the same project. While “Meet Me in the City” is more adventurous and up-tempo, “Another,” is a slow-groove that feels wistful and nostalgic at the same time. Although a love song, the new track isn’t outwardly lovey-dovey, it really takes some time to truly grasp the beautiful lyrics Doleac is conveying through his vocals.

“Losing all track of time / Everything you do just makes me want some more of you / Every smile, every kiss, every second that I get, every little look you give me like that / Every night, every day, every memory that we make, baby you ain’t even gotta ask / I’ll always want another dance / Another chance to hold your hand”

Adam Doleac Another

This song definitely has first dance appeal to all the brides out there. The singer-songwriter’s vocals shine, as he expresses his desire for only one person and no other. It is a beautiful sentiment that will be appreciated by any country music lover. Doleac has been one of our favorite artists since we featured him in our very first LIVE Swag Session back in 2017, and “Another” is just another song that fans will love.

To keep up with Doleac, follow him on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

“Another” 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.

Here is Filmore’s Debut Album, ‘State I’m In’

Filmore’s debut album State I’m In is out now. Check out our full First Impression Review of the project and give it a listen below.

Filmore State I'm In

Today marks the day that one of our favorite artists, Filmore drops his debut album State I’m In. The singer-songwriter burst onto the mainstream scene in 2018, and since then, he has mesmerized fans and is taking the music industry by storm. He also found himself snagging a spot on our NYCS 2019 Artists to Watch list! If this 18-song record is any clue of what is in store, Filmore is sure to continue to be one to look out for.

“This album is a look into my life over the last few years. It’s the ups and downs in relationships, experiences from my hometown, life on the road, and living in Nashville,” the singer shares in a recent press release, “I wrote every song from a real and personal place with amazing writers and friends. My hope is that you can listen to the album from start to finish and know who Filmore is by the end.”

The singer’s sentiment perfectly embodies the record. The album features breakup songs that showcase different stages of a dissolution of a relationship and songs that explain how it feels to be so deeply in love with a person and with life. “London” and “Pictures On The Fridge” focus on the bittersweet nostalgia that comes from a breakup. The former takes us through all the places in London that the couple would have gone to together had they stayed together. The latter focuses on all the pictures that are no longer meaningful. Both songs are ironically upbeat for having a sad theme.

“Those 3x5s only remind me what I miss about you / You’re just a memory now, I still can’t take them down / It’s 3AM I’m lost again, damn these pictures on the fridge / These pictures on the fridge” 

“Blue Skies,” “State I’m In,” and “Heart’s Having A Hard Time” focus on the emotions when you are in the thick of a breakup. All three songs convey an honest approach to music, as well as, to what we all feel as humans when we go through hard times. One of our favorites, “Heart’s Having A Hard Time” is especially poignant. It depicts the unique challenges of being the one to end the relationship, equally as painful in different ways.

“Yeah I know I made up my mind / But my heart / My heart’s having a hard”

Continuing to explore the same type of narrative, “W.I.L.D.” takes the idea of a broken relationship to a different level. The acronym, which stands for “when I lay down,” shines a light on the emotions that overtake us at night, when we go to bed and long for an ex-lover. Normalizing these feelings helps us all feel a little closer to the singer.

Of course, the record isn’t all break-up songs. Filmore gives us a power anthem on being single with “Nothing’s Better.” The brand new track reminds us of how good it feels to be confident in who you are.

Nothing’s better than us not together / ‘cause the best kind of me is me without you

Filmore’s debut album also fills our hearts with some promising love songs. “Love That About You,” “Me Lately,” and “Other Girl” depicts a different stage in a relationship. “Love That About You” is a complete jam about falling in love and appreciating all the little things about your significant other. “Me Lately,” tells the story about how the entertainer went through somewhat of metamorphosis when he finally found the love he was looking for. He sings about a special lady giving him the confidence to love himself, all because she loves and accepts him for who he is. Lastly, “Other Girl” is the song for when you realize you have found your forever.

Earlier this year, Filmore joined us a live swag session in New York City where he performed “Love That About You,” “Other Girl”, and “Slower,” before joining us for an interview. Check out the full video below.

Finally, to lace the whole record together, Filmore finds resolution and acceptance with songs like “Country Song,” “My Place,” and the concluding track, “Anyone But Me.” “Country Song” is the singer-songwriter’s ode to country music. It is the song that we can’t wait to hear live and sing along to. Similarly, “My Place” is another song made for the stage. Finally, “Anyone But Me” completes Filmore’s story for his debut album. He ends the record with an honest and truthful anecdote about how his life has changed for the good and for the bad over his nine-year journey in Nashville. The song is able to simultaneously wrap up a cohesive project and leave room for a second chapter in the next record.

Filmore explores the gamut of emotions throughout this record. Each of the eighteen tracks is clearly dosed with a whole lot of Filmore charm. From the lyrics to the production to the order of the tracks, State I’m In proves that Filmore is a talent like no other!

To keep up with Filmore follow him on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

Granger Smith’s New Album ‘Country Things, Vol. 1’ is Out Now

Granger Smith’s new album Country Things, Vol. 1 is here, marking this his tenth studio release. The eight-track project is one you’ll want to listen to and then listen to again, as it will teach you to appreciate the moments in life that money can’t buy, not to take anything for granted, and enjoy every moment spent with your loved ones.

Granger Smith Country Things

Smith began working on this project last year before it was put on hold when he and his wife, Amber, tragically lost their son River, in an accidental drowning. While it must have been difficult to start back up, the singer-songwriter showcases his incredible strength and gratitude for the life he built with each song.

The title track “Country Things” starts off the album in true country fashion with a fiddle. Written by Jordan Schmidt, Michael Hardy, Ernest K. Smith, Brian Kelley and, Hunter Phelps, this song sets the whole upbeat yet deep, tone of the album. It shares the message that no matter where you’re from, take a moment, and enjoy the simple “country things” in life, including dirt roads, manners, and passed down recipes.

“I Kill Spiders” is a song that every parent needs to hear and even if you’re not a parent, it will still pull on your heartstrings. Written by Smith and Tim Owens, this song starts with a little girl’s voice calling her dad saying she needs him. The touching melody shares the message that whether you need them to kill spiders or help you when you’re feeling lost, your parents will always be there for you to make your world a bit brighter.

Smith does a fantastic job reminding us to live in the present with “That’s Why I Love Dirt Roads”. He also reminds us to be thankful for the people in our lives who go the extra mile to make sure we succeed with “Heroes”.

While this album may make you stop and think, Smith did a great job of balancing out the deep songs with the traditional love and country pride songs we are used to. Additionally, no need to worry as fan-favorite and Smith’s alter ego, Earl Dibbles Jr., closes out the album with a fun twist of the popular kid’s tune “If You’re Happy And You Know It”. Appropriately retitled “Country & Ya Know It”, the song shows appreciation to the country lifestyle, and instead of clapping your hands, you raise a beer. We cannot wait to sing along to this at a future live show.

Country Things, Vol. 1 gives you a new appreciation for the little things in life and we can’t wait to see what Volume 2 brings.

To keep up with Granger Smith follow him on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Country Things, Vol. 1  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.

Carrie Underwood’s Christmas Album ‘My Gift’ is Here

Carrie Underwood’s Christmas Album is finally here and although it’s only September, it seems the holidays have come early. The country superstar has recorded multiple holiday tracks since winning American Idol in 2005, but today’s release titled My Gift is the first full-length Christmas album of her 15+ year career. 

Carrie Underwood My Gift

With a mix of Christmas classics like “O Holy Night”, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”, “Mary Did You Know”, and “O Come All Ye Faithful”, plus original songs sure to become holiday favorites such as “Let There Be Peace”, “Sweet Baby Jesus”, and “Hallelujah”, the album truly has something for everyone. There are even special guests including John Legend and a very unique ‘Little Drummer Boy’, Underwood’s 5-year-old son, Isaiah Fisher. 

The record is full of gospel and soul and showcases two of Carrie Underwoods’ most notable qualities; her killer pipes and her religious devotion. The album has plenty of powerful registers known around the world, but fans will also see a softer side of Underwood’s voice throughout the project as she lends gentler vocals to the spiritual lyrics. The singer-songwriter (plus lifestyle brand entrepreneur and most recently best-selling author) has always put her faith front and center in her career and this project is no different. Even the name of the album, “My Gift” came from a place of worship. 

“I tried to think about the songs that were in it and one of my favorites is “Little Drummer Boy” because the sentiment behind it is so honest,” Underwood said in a teaser video for the project earlier this year. “They’re bringing gifts to baby Jesus and he doesn’t have anything, he’s poor. So he says ‘I’m gonna play my drum for him, that’s what I have’. And to me, that is a gift that was given to him by God. I love music. I love singing. That is my personal gift that I have that I am blessed to do and I want to use that gift and give it back to Jesus”. 

The timing may have finally been right for the songstress to release a holiday project, but the coronavirus pandemic provided a unique challenge when it came to finishing the album. Thanks to technology, however, producer Greg Wells was able to be with Underwood in the studio via Zoom. Behind the scenes, video from the sessions show studio musicians and choral singers socially distant and wearing masks. 

Fans will get a chance to experience the album another way this winter when HBO Max airs an exclusive holiday special. Underwood will appear with a live orchestra and choir, performing both traditional and original songs from the album. An air date for the special hasn’t been announced yet.

“Now more than ever we all need to focus on what Christmas is about,” says Underwood.  “Even though it has been a tough year, sometimes I feel like the greatest realizations can come in the worst times or in the most stressful times and it makes you more thankful for the things that you do have.”  Right now, we’re thankful for the new Carrie Underwood music!

Announced earlier today, (Sept. 24th), HBO Max revealed an exclusive holiday special starring seven-time GRAMMY Award winner, Carrie Underwood. The show will focus on her first-ever Christmas album, My Gift, which is due out tomorrow, September 25th.

Country Queen and 2020 Co-ACM Entertainer of the Year, Carrie Underwood will appear with a live orchestra and choir, performing a combination of beloved traditional favorites celebrating the spiritual nature of the holiday, as well as new original material from the highly anticipated album.

“The journey of writing and recording this album started last year when I finished my tour and we could have never anticipated the circumstances we would be in this year,” said Carrie Underwood in a recent press release. “Creating this album has been good for my heart, and I’m thrilled to get to share it with the world and to bring it to life with Playtone and HBO Max.”

The Max Original special will be executive produced by Gary Goetzman and Tom Hanks for Playtone, along with Underwood and her manager, Ann Edelblute. The holiday event is set to shoot this fall.
