Saying John R. Miller is a great singer-songwriter doesn’t come relatively close to capturing his depth. A true wordsmith, a skilled guitar picker, and the insights of a Tibetan Monk’s Third Eye on an awakening psychedelic trip is closer to the truth. While his songwriting ability is most impressive, a very close second is how

Alan Jackson, the man’s still got it. Even though Jackson is 63-years-old, the man has had the kind of year that would put men half his age to shame. From the release of his 16th studio album Where Have You Gone, to his duet with his daughter “Racing The Dark,” and even playing a benefit concert

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Anna Ash has announced her next album Sleeper and shared two new singles, “Favorite Part” and “Popularity.” The new releases build off of the rootsy, delicate Americana sound that Ash updated with more complex soundscapes on her most recent EP Fire Season, which she released in March. Her intimate, intricate songwriting has conjured literary comparisons, with her

Though she says she was skeptical of accepting the cover because she didn’t feel like she really deserved it, the Tennessee native has accomplished a hell of a lot over the past year. We’ve seen her branch out into the perfume market, fund a portion of the Moderna COVID vaccine with a million dollar donation,

Let’s call a spade a spade… for the most part, country radio sucks. They play the same 5 pop songs over and over again (literally, read our full country radio data analysis here), hardly any women, and with this new wave of boyfriend country bullshit, it’s enough to make you want to lay down in

It’s no secret that country music is often associated with summer and warm weather. Themes of sunshine, tan-lines and time spent outdoors pervade the genre (for better or for worse). Some artists such as Kenny Chesney have made entire careers with a heavy focus on beach themed music, and fans clearly gravitate toward it. However,

The Limestone Kid has been having one hell of a time at Aught Six Ranch, near Pueblo, Colorado. Aside from the breathtaking views out there, Parker McCollum has been taking in all that the Colorado outdoors has to offer, both hunting and fishing. Yesterday, he shared a picture of a gorgeous rainbow trout that he

There’s been so much amazing news swirling around about the Turnpike Troubadours, as it’s been officially confirmed that the legendary country band will be reuniting once again. With that being said, there was a huge rumor about this upcoming show at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Oklahoma on December 4th. RC & The Ambers (RC Edwards,

Zach Bryan is officially BACK on Yellowstone, By now, it’s no secret that Yellowstone has done a phenomenal job of showcasing some of the best that country music has to offer. And we’re not talking about the Kane Browns of the world. We’re talking about real deal country music… the kind of indie artists that could

A country boy can survive, by God. Hank Williams Jr., along with Dean Dillon and Mart Stuart, was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame last Sunday. And, he had an extra special guest there to honor him on such a huge, important night in his storied career. Eric Church took the stage to

I know I’m not the only 30-something country music fan that grew up listening to a little punk rock. I grew up on a steady dose of Alan Jackson, George Strait, Reba, Brooks and Dunn and the rest of the ’90s country greats, but there was a time when I got into bands like Blink

The Turnpike rumor mills is on FIRE. Earlier this week, the Turnpike Troubadours, AKA the greatest band in country music, revealed a “Coming Soon” home page on their website. They also wiped their Instagram clean and made their Twitter account private. The move appears to be much more significant than routine website maintenance, and has

Thanksgiving looked a lot different back in 2001, as several families had to spend it without a loved one due to the horrible terrorist attacks on September 11th. It was a day of reflection and deep sadness, as the United States underwent an attack on a level that it had never seen before. And while

Give me anything and everything Morgan Wade straight into the veins. She’s been on fire for quite a while now, most recently with some live performances of songs from her stellar debut album Reckless, and also covering Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire” just for kicks. Well, she’s back with a stand out track from Reckless.  “Take Me

Beats the heck outta Kane Brown, eh? I gotta give the Cowboys props, Luke Combs is a real improvement from Kane Brown last year Can’t recall the last time I enjoyed the thanksgiving halftime show — TURQOUISE CLASSIC 2.0 (@TribeAlive) November 25, 2021 Luke Combs took the stage during halftime of the Cowboys Raiders game

We all love spending time with our family on Thanksgiving, right? Just not TOO much time. If you’re anything like me, after a couple hours of Thanksgiving dinner and family time you’re ready to sneak off to the garage to grab a beer out of that beige fridge (you know the one), crank up some

The things I would have done to go back and see one of these acoustic shows… Before he was the outsider country superstar he is today, and right after releasing the record that got him there, Purgatory, Tyler Childers played a song we wouldn’t hear on an album for 2 years. “Peace Of Mind” is the

Erin Rae “Candy & Curry” “I’m hearing many voices, so convincing,” Erin Rae sings on this meditative new track, which was inspired by an early-pandemic reverie at a friend’s cabin in Madison, Tenn. Produced by Jonathan Wilson, the song pairs Rae’s ethereal, multi-tracked vocals with an arrangement that combines elements of dream-pop and psychedelic rock. The
