Gettin’ Old is coming SOON. And Luke Combs has been sharing some cool stories behind tracks from his forthcoming fourth studio album, like “Love You Anyway” and “See Me Now.” A couple days ago, he detailed how he came up with the inspiration for the already fan-favorite “5 Leaf Clover,” which is actually fittingly dropping

Some small part of my brain thinks Post Malone was born with face tats… As we’ve talked about a lot around here, Post Malone’s knowledge of country music runs deep and he’s never been afraid to show it off. The rockstar/rapper has been vocal about his love for Shania Twain, rocks Tyler Childers and Colter

Talk about a throwback… RC Edwards, best known as bassist for the Turnpike Troubadours, shared a really cool picture of them way back in the day, with frontman Evan Felker rocking a full head of curly hair. He shared the photo with the perfect caption: “Lil Baby Troubadours.” And it looks like it was timestamped as

One Thing At A Time is the #1 album in all of music this week. According to Billboard, Morgan Wallen’s new behemoth of a 36-song third studio album earned a #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200 All-Genre chart after moving a monster 501,000 equivalent album units in the United States (ending March 9th). It’s

Throw all the adages for this one out, like “they don’t make music like they used to” and “simpler times.” The 1970’s Grammy Awards, which marked the 12th annual time the event occurred, was chock full of country music greats like the legendary Johnny Cash and the instantly recognizable Tammy Wynette. The award for Best

Zach Bryan has certainly come a very long way… He shared a screenshot on Twitter earlier of a message he sent to The Lumineers on Instagram way back in 2016, asking them to check out his music and even sending a short video over. He also noted how much their influence meant to him and

Make it 15 for Luke Combs. The North Carolina native and country superstar just scored his 15th career #1 single at country radio with “Going, Going, Gone,” from his 2022 Growin’ Up record. The break-up song was written by Luke along with Ray Fulcher and James McNair, as he sings about a former significant other,

Seems like somebody started hittin’ the whiskey glasses a little too early… Last Friday, Morgan Wallen put on a free show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to celebrate the release of his record-breaking album, One Thing At a Time. Fans stood in line outside the arena for hours to get tickets, and the show was sold out only

Tim McGraw focuses on what truly matters in life with his latest single, “Standing Room Only.” Released today (March 10), the soaring, emotional track feels like a thoughtful companion piece to the country star’s trademark hits “Live Like You Were Dying” and “Where the Green Grass Grows.” McGraw co-wrote the track with longtime friend and collaborator

Waylon Jennings knew how to crank out hits. And on this date in 1986, he released his first album with MCA Records, Will the Wolf Survive, which eventually became his sixth #1 country album. Up until that year, Waylon had been with RCA Records since 1966, so moving to a new label made the whole

The audio conversation of Clay tearing his bus driver a new one went viral earlier this week, and while it’s not entirely clear what transpired to set Clay off like that, I think we all can agree that it is no way to treat anybody, regardless of job performance. @southernyankeetwo #claywalker #country #music #nashville #men

Chris Stapleton’s going to be a busy man in 2023. Following a jaw dropping performance of the national anthem at Super Bowl 57 last month, Chris and company are gearing up to hit the road on their 2023 All American Road Show Tour, and he just added even more new stops along the way. The full

Say what you want about The Highwaymen, but you can’t accuse them of consuming too much caffeine. A tweet from Ken Jennings went viral today which showed an old tour rider for the Highwaymen, the country music supergroup comprised of Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. The mundane nature of their requests

Megan Moroney is on a rocket to the moon right now. Signs a record deal with Sony, Grand Ole Opry debut, announces debut album Lucky, reveals tracklist, and now we get another single release from the album.

What do you get when you combine two genre-crossing artists in Rufus Wainwright and Brandi Carlile together on the same track? A wonderfully-spooky yet beautiful cover of The Everly Brothers “Down in the Willow Garden.” The song, which was released today, showcases both Wainwright and Carlile’s raspy voices while also honoring the traditional Everly Brothers

Innovative songsmith Rufus Wainwright recruited fellow genre-bending talent Brandi Carlile for a goosebump-worthy new track. Released today (March 7), “Down in the Willow Garden” finds the pair putting their own captivating spin on a traditional murder ballad from the early 19th century. Over the decades, the song has been covered by dozens of artists, from

Just after his solo breakout. From 2019 in Paste Studios NYC, a young Marcus King took the stage as a solo artist for one of the first times. He made an appearance with his group, The Marcus King band, a year prior at Paste, but once King went solo, he returned. Paste Studio sessions are
