Sometimes a change of scenery can be enough to help you escape the lingering pain of heartbreak. But what happens when space, sand and a stiff drink aren’t enough to help you escape a memory?

Everybody knows The Eagles’ 1972 hit song, “Take It Easy,” it’s an absolute classic. I mean, who doesn’t want a chance to stand on the corner in Winslow, Arizona, after blasting the song on a long drive with the windows down?  Bucket list stuff right there. Of course, we all know ’90s country superstar Travis

Travis Denning “Buy a Girl a Drink” Emotional sincerity and real-life relatability take center stage on “Buy A Girl A Drink,” the latest song from Travis Denning. Co-written by Denning alongside Paul DiGiovanni, Chase McGill and Jeremy Stover, the reflective tune is a sobering reminder to not let anything hold a person back from pursuing

I love me some Whiskey Myers. As the band gears up to release their highly-anticipated sixth studio album, Tornillo, that’s set for release on July 29th, I got a chance to talk to frontman Cody Cannon a little bit about the new record (more to come there), as well as what it’s like to be

Americana standout Lilly Winwood is ready to soak up the moment. The talented Nashville-based singer-songwriter’s new track “Brighter Days,” which is exclusively premiering on The Boot today, is the hopeful first cut from Linwood’s upcoming album Talking Walls. Cushioned by dreamy guitar from Laur Joamets and Philippe Bronchtein’s pedal steel, Winwood’s soaring vocals drive home the lyrics’

Brothers Osborne’s John Osborne is opening up on his battle with depression. The duo recently stopped by SiriusXM’s Exit 209 with Storme Warren Podcast, where John shared a lot about his personal journey and struggle with depression.

From the moment country-pop multi-instrumentalist Caroline Jones first heard British singer-songwriter Mimi Webb’s addictive hit song “House on Fire,” she was immediately hooked. “It has such a clever lyric, which I really appreciate being in country,” Jones tells The Boot in a recent interview. “I love lyrics that are layered, and there’s obviously a certain bit of

A new Charley Crockett era is upon us. He just announced his 11th career studio album The Man From Waco, which is slated to drop on September 9th. Charley wrote or co-wrote all 14 songs on the tracklist, as well. And he’s been on quite a tear lately, dropping three other albums in the last

I am a huge professional wrestling nerd, and the other day I was thinking about how country music and pro-wrestling have been entwined over the years. This was sort of sparked by AEW’s “Hangman” Adam Page’s Spotify playlist title “anxious millennial cowboy,” which features songs by Orville Peck, Waylon Jennings, and Charley Crockett. It really

“Is that Wheeler Walker Jr. up there?” My friend was joking, of course. We were watching Paul Cauthen perform the semi-satirical “Country As Fuck” from his recently released album Country Coming Down at the Palomino Festival in Pasadena, CA.

Rita Wilson’s latest offering off of her forthcoming duets and concepts album is her own version “Songbird,” which was released by Fleetwood Mac in 1977.

Happy Monday, y’all. Today for the Song of the Week, we have a cover called “She Thinks I Still Care” by Elvis Presley. The song was originally written by Dickey Lee and Steve Duffy and first popularized by George Jones when he released it as a single, as it eventually peaked at #1 on the Billboard

This is probably the coolest Airstream I’ve ever seen. Miranda Lambert recently showed off her vintage Airstream affectionally nicknamed “Wanda the Wanderer,” as the camper has traveled everywhere on tour with the Texas native for the last decade. A ’54 Flying Cloud model designed by the Junk Gypsy Company in Round Top, Texas, it has the

Thank GOD this video popped up on my YouTube queue. Nothing will tug at my heartstrings more than a musician performing with their parent. Billy Strings and his father, Terry Barber, sat down for a show at City Opera House in Traverse City, MI, in 2020. Although Barber is not Strings’ biological father, he raised

Go ahead and melt my face off, Whiskey Myers.
