Now this will be a party… The man himself, Koe Wetzel, is headed to Fort Worth next week to host the official grand opening of his new bar and restaurant, Riot Room, in Texas. It actually opened last month on March 16th, but with a pretty much non-stop touring schedule for the first half of

Charley Pride now has his rightful place alongside the other country music icons outside of Nashville’s most iconic building.

What a cool way to make your Grand Ole Opry debut. Emmy Russell, granddaughter of the late, great Loretta Lynn, will make her debut at the country institution this Thursday evening. And not only that, but she’ll also be joined by Loretta’s sister (and her aunt) Crystal Gayle, who will both help celebrate what would’ve

We’re just barely getting into spring, but I think all of us are ready to blast this classic Kenny Chesney song once it’s officially time for summer. “Summertime” was released on this day in 2006 (17 years ago, feel old yet?) and it was immediately a hit. The song was released as the third single

Coming soon… Back in January, Diplo finally dropped the long anticipated Kodak Black and Koe Wetzel featured song “Wasted,” and I’ll admit, the song highly exceeded expectations, and I’m the last guy that generally enjoys country and rap thrown in together.

Happy Easter. “Amazing Grace” is arguably the most popular hymn of all time, the perfect song for Easter Sunday.

Happy Easter, y’all. In the spirit of the holiday, I wanted to put together a quick list of the best, more recent country gospel songs for this Sunday in particular.

Pete Mancini has made an art form of suburban ennui, highlighting the cracks in the facade of perfection and the anxiety of keeping up with the Joneses. He sets it all to a dreamy, 70s-inspired soundtrack — something akin to what would have happened if Neil Young knew about REM. As always, Mancini hits the bullseye

It’s hard to believe that it will be 6 years this fall since the horror at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas. 58 people were killed and hundreds more were injured when Stephen Paddock opened fire on the last night of the country music festival from a hotel room on the 32nd floor

This year, Darius Rucker will release his first full album in six years with Carolyn’s Boy, and he is giving fans another taste of the forthcoming project with his newly-released radio single, “Fires Don’t Start Themselves.” The fun and steamy song was written by Dan Isbell, Ben Hayslip and Jacob Rice, and it finds Rucker singing about a

Ashley McBryde is known for sticking to her own path, even if it’s the road less traveled. That determined mindset is at the center of her new single “The Devil I Know,” out today (April 7).  Co-written by McBryde, Jeremy Stover and Bobby Pinson, the slow-building track poetically explores the life choices she’s made —

It’s almost impossible to imagine that country icon and all-time legend Hank Williams isn’t a member of the Grand Ole Opry. But it’s quite the opposite, actually. At just 25 years old, he made his Grand Ole Opry debut on June 11, 1949, and fans were so enamored with his performance that he received an impressive six encores for
