Levi Hummon Releases Breakup Tune, “Rock and Roses”

Rock and Roses Levi Hummon

Country music heartthrob and one of our most recent Swag Sessions artists, Levi Hummon has been working to build his catalog of music this year. He released “Wedding Dress” and “The Story” earlier this year, and today, he premiered “Rock and Roses.”

As always, Hummon’s vocals are piercing and soothing, as he opens his heart to fans through his music. “Rock and Roses” may sound familiar as the singer-songwriter often sang it on his first-ever headlining tour last year. The song, co-written by Hummon with Ben Wells, depicts how Hummon feels after a break-up. As many of us have felt, he starts to recognize his mistakes and what he could have done better. Hindsight is always 20/20.

“One foot in, one foot out / How stupid was I for that / And how did I go and mess it up / I can’t blackout / I can’t forget / All those nights and not be sad / Who taught me to be so dumb”

Moreover, Hummon manages to cleverly utilize “rock and roses” to memorialize that he should have bought a ring for his ex, but unfortunately, things are broken and cannot be fixed. This is a song of repentance and truly feels like a diary entry. Kudos for Hummon for being so honest and vulnerable.

We anticipate that Hummon will continue to release more music before the year is up, and we are excited to see what he comes up with.

“Rock and Roses” 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.

5 Undiscovered Male Artists You Should Be Listening To

We are loving how the country music genre continues to grow and develop. As a platform, we believe it’s important to promote and support megastars, rising artists, and independent artists in the industry. There is so much rising talent in Nashville that we look forward to continuing to champion.

Here are five of our current favorite undiscovered male country artists that we know you’ll love…

 

1. Adam Doleac
LISTEN: “Famous”

We had to start off this list with one of our current favorites, Adam Doleac, who just so happens to be our first ever Swag Session Artist. He is the epitome of contemporary country music right now! With his charm, good looks, and killer vocals, it’s just a matter of time until he makes it big in the industry. We last caught up with the singer-songwriter at Taste of Country back in June, where we talked about his hit, “Famous” as well as, plans for new music. Check out the interview in the video below and give a listen to “Famous”, along with some of his other songs “SOLO” and “Wake Up Beautiful” that we are also loving. Keep up with Doleac on Instagram and Twitter.

 

2. Nick Wayne
LISTEN: “I Knew It Was You”

Next up, Nick Wayne is another artist that we’ve got on repeat. His unique sound blends effortlessly with his creative lyrics, making you want to sing along to each song right from the beginning. His newest song “I Knew It Was You”, off his soon to be completed Coffee Black is an infectious tune about knowing you found your soulmate, and we believe that Wayne has found his soul’s calling with music. He is a true storyteller. Make sure you keep Wayne on your radar. Give him a follow on Instagram and Twitter.

 

3. Baker Grissom
LISTEN: “Right Bar Wrong Stool”

One of our more unexpected picks is Baker Grissom. Virtually unknown until the release of his debut EP Saturdays & Sunday, Grissom is taking the country music world by storm in a big way. Both myself and our managing editor, Christina, fell in love with his sound and story-telling ability almost instantly, when we first listened to his record. He’s one of those artists that exists in his own lane, which is both refreshing and endearing. Check out his EP, especially “Do I Drink” and “You Are Who You Listen To”. Keep up with Grissom via his Instagram.

 

4. Levi Hummon
LISTEN: “Drop of Us”

Levi Hummon is another artist that we’re loving. He’s armed with clever lyrics, a charming smile, and a great voice. His newest song, “Drop of Us” is story-telling at its finest, and you’ll want to listen to it this summer! Arguably his most popular song, “I Still Do” is still one of our favorites, but it’s only the beginning of his talent. Hummon played “I Still Do” and the rest of the songs off his EP Patient back in October, when we caught the singer at his intimate release party in Nashville. To watch Hummon’s career take off, make sure to follow him on Instagram and Twitter.

 

5. Drew Baldridge
LISTEN: “Middle of Nowhere Kids”

Snagging our last spot is Drew Baldridge. We’ve been fans of the rising artist since back in 2016 when Baldridge released his single “Dance with Ya”. Fast forward to April 2018, when Baldridge joined us on Refinery Rooftop for a live Swag Session. Now, Baldridge is busy promoting his newest singles “Middle of Nowhere Kids” and “She’s Somebody’s Daughter” gearing up to play at the Boots and Hearts Music Festival in Canada later this week. We’re excited to see what the singer has in store for fans this year. Keep up with him via Instagram and Twitter.

Levi Hummon Plays New EP ‘Patient’ at Intimate Nashville Release Party

Rising country star Levi Hummon is no stranger to the music industry. With a father in the business, Marcus Hummon, writing songs like “Cowboy Take Me Away”, “One of These Days”, and “Bless the Broken Road”, Hummon has been surrounded by talent from a young age. Today he released his brand new EP Patient comprised of six tracks. To celebrate the release of Patient Hummon took the stage at Nashville’s 3rd and Lindsley last night (October 25th).

This being his very first VIP Party event, Hummon performed an acoustic set of two songs before meeting everyone, signing posters and CDs, and taking lots of photos. Hummon has created quite the fan base for himself since releasing music on Spotify, and other streaming platforms, that has been featured on top playlists such as New Boots and Hot Country. People waited in line at the door for over three hours before the show started to catch the new rising star. Hannah Ellis started off the night singing new songs and included her hit single “Home And A Hometown” which she sang for us just a few weeks ago during our Live Swag Session.

Hummon then took the stage for a nine-song set, opening with one of his latest singles “Change My Life.” In between songs, the singer-songwriter told stories behind the songs, the meaning behind them, and thanked the people that got him where he is today. The rest of the night went by too fast. The crowd was up on their feet, singing every word, and the energy in the room was so infectious it was undeniable. Hummon finished the night with a fan favorite “Songs We Sang”, which has 16.9 million streams, that got everyone clapping and singing along.

After the show, the highly anticipated EP was released on all streaming platforms. Off of the six-track record, we see three new songs “I Still Do”, “Tough Love”, and “Earthquake.” “Earthquake” is a favorite on the road and since fans keep requesting it Hummon thought it would fit perfectly on the EP. The top track “I Still Do” got an immediate response from the crowd. The ballad is based off a real-life break-up, with his former record label, Big Machine Label Group.

If you are looking for a new artist or song, look no further. Levi Hummon is changing the game and bringing irresistible songs to the plate. You can now stream the EP on any service now or buy it here!
