Running it back. Today, Pepsi’s Rock The Country officially announced the lineup for their second annual music festival tour and it’s absolutely loaded. Spending a total of two days in ten small towns across America, Kid Rock and Nickelback will headline alongside Hank Williams Jr. and Lynyrd Skynyrd, with support from Travis Tritt, Gavin Adcock, Ella Langley, Aaron Lewis, Treaty Oak Revival, Ole 60, Hudson Westbrook and more. Building on last years success with Jason Aldean and returning headliner Kid Rock, Rock The Country has now expanded from 7 to 10 festival dates nationwide, revisiting four markets from 2024 while adding six new…

Running it back. Earlier this morning, XRoads 41 announced the lineup for their second annual music festival and it features some of the hottest names in all of country music. Cody Johnson, Kane Brown and Parker McCollum are set to headline the 3-day event, with support from Koe Wetzel, Jessie Murph, Rodney Atkins, Ian Munsick, Josh Meloy and more. Last year, Oshkosh marketing director, Mindy Klein, talked about the impact of XRoads after their community went four years without a festival in place. And while both lineups feature more country acts that not, blending genres has been a focus for…

Basically the same thing. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you should be well aware of the heinous charges brought against rapper, record producer and record executive, Sean Combs (better known by his stage name, Diddy).

“If I can stand up to someone in power, you can stand up to the bum from your hometown.” After a very public breakup back in October, things between Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry have only gotten messier. This past Tuesday night, fellow BFFs host and Barstool founder, Dave Portnoy, teamed up with Josh Richards to release a diss track towards the “Something in the Orange” singer. Although the video and song have been removed for copyright claims from Warner Music, it hasn’t stopped the video from making its rounds on TikTok and other social media platforms. After it was announced that…

Nowadays, the definition of country music has been left open to interpretation. With many sub-genres spawning over the last few decades, one thing remains true; you know real country when you hear it. For some, it’s been a disappointing last couple of decades. For others, newer artists such as Morgan Wallen or Zach Bryan have been what’s made them a country music fan, considering both stars have incredible streaming numbers and seemingly break records monthly. Although critics and fans have been expressing their frustration with country music changing and evolving for generations, pop music heavily infiltrated the genre in the…

Jason Aldean is officially working on new music. Just moments ago, the 47 year-old country star shared a video to his Instagram story of him and his band back in the studio working on what one would assume is a brand new album. Aldean released his last record, “Highway Desperado,” back in November of last year, and with his tour of the same name wrapping up just a couple weeks ago, it looks like he is right on schedule. If timing and previous release dates throughout his 20-year career are any indication of when you should expect this new record…
