Impressive would be an understatement. As the year comes to an end, chart publications and the top streaming services have been releasing their year-end performance metrics. Earlier in the week, it was announced by Billboard that Morgan Wallen had the highest grossing tour in country music by a long shot, bringing in a massive $260 million in revenue across 44 stops. Over 1.3 million people attended a Wallen show in 2023, coming out to an average of over 30,000 per show.

Always a good day when Dylan Wheeler drops new tunes. Today, the Broke Ass Kid singer dropped his brand new song, titled “Outcast Crowd.” The track, written By Dylan, as well as Philip Mosley and David Ray Stevens, is an ode to all those people who don’t necessarily fit in with your regular ordinary do-gooders, yet don’t seem to give a sh*t. If you’ve been a Wheeler fan for some time, or just like the rockin’ sound coming out of Texas, this one should be right up your alley. Here’s a look at some of the lyrics: “Lately my names…
Livin’ the dream. As most of you are probably aware by now, the overnight sensation that is Oliver Anthony, blew up two months ago when he released his viral hit, “Rich Men North Of Richmond” through RadioWV’s YouTube channel.

Back in October, Anthony announced he plans to start recording his debut album in January: “Have been in the woods lately writing some songs and petting some dogs. Will be recording my first official album in January. Going to…
Man, I love these types of videos. While casually scrolling on the internet, I found this absolute gem of a throwback video featuring a 2016 jam session between Luke Combs and the boys from Muscadine Bloodline. Surrounded by nothing but (presumably empty) beer cans and good friends, the three were hangin’ out backstage drinkin’ and whomever decided to pull out their iPhone 6 to record ’em singin’ “Hurricane” deserves a big ol’ check for blessing our feeds. Hurricane was Luke’s first ever single at Country radio. It first charted and gained success in 2015, helping Luke score a record deal…

In honor of the breakout year Megan Moroney has had, I decided to do a quick deep dive and came across her cover of Chris Stapleton’s “Either Way” she posted three years ago to her YouTube account. Either Way was written by Chris Stapleton, Tim James and Kendall Marvel, but was first released by Lee Ann Womack on her 2008 album, “Call Me Crazy.” Although the song won an award for Best Country Solo Performance at the 60th Grammy’s, most people are more familiar with Chris Stapleton’s version from his 2017 album, “From A Room: Volume 1.” Not only is…
