Throwback Monday? After sweeping the CMA Awards back in 2015 by winning every category he was nominated for, Chris Stapleton returned the following year and teamed up with country music icon, Dwight Yoakam, for a legendary performance of the Ray Charles & Willie Nelson hit, “Seven Spanish Angels.” “Seven Spanish Angels” was written by Troy Seals and Eddie Setser, and was originally released in 1984 off Charles’ studio album, “Friendship.” The album went on to go #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, while the song also topped the Hot Country Songs chart, becoming Charles’ most successful hit at country…

I’d pay GOOD money to witness this many legendary artists on one stage again. Back in 2015, (which is now ten years ago, holy sh*t), a plethora of country music’s biggest stars teamed up at the Moody Theater in Austin, Texas to pay tribute to the legendary, Waylon Jennings. Nearly two years later, CMT aired the special event for those who weren’t able to make it out to the Lodestar state, titled Outlaw: Celebrating the Music of Waylon Jennings. Throughout the event, fans witnessed a performance of “Lonesome, On’ry and Mean” from Eric Church, a cover of “I Ain’t Living…
What a year for Morgan Wallen. Despite not releasing an album in 2024, the 31 year-old singer/songwriter was crowned the fourth most streamed artist on Spotify this year. Couple that with the fact that he became the first artist ever to earn five #1s on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart in a calendar year, it’s hard to argue that Wallen doesn’t have one of the most die-hard fanbases in all of music. And last night, he surprise-dropped a fan favorite, “Smile,” to streaming platforms, accompanied with a new music video featuring Barstool Sports comedian, Caleb Pressley. “Smile” is just Morgan’s fourth…
The Duo we didn’t know we needed. After the release of his debut country album, F 1-Trillion, which featured a plethora of today’s biggest country stars, many (myself included) were wondering whether Post Malone would hang up his cowboy hat at the end of 2024. Then came the announcement of another headlining tour featuring Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell, set to kick off in April of 2025 in Indio, California. And last night, Post Malone doubled down on his love for classic country and proved he ain’t leavin’ the genre any time soon when he brought out Zach Top to perform a cover of…
Slow news day. Love or hate Morgan Wallen, you cannot deny that the “Last Night” singer keeps his personal life fairly quiet. Whether it’s his relationship with fellow star, Megan Moroney, or the countless rumors surrounding his dating life in Nashville, he’s never opened up much about himself outside of the studio. With that being said, however, it seems like none other than NFL quarterback, Jay Cutler’s ex-wife and reality TV star, Kristin Cavallari, took it upon herself to reveal some details about her brief relationship with the superstar today, appearing on Jelly Roll’s wife, Bunnie Xo’s podcast, Dumb Blonde…
Parker McCollum fans are still pissed. Earlier this month, Oliver Anthony posted a 15 minute video to his YouTube account titled “What I’ve Learned From The Music Industry So Far.” During the lengthy clip, the “Rich Men North of Richmond” singer attacked another artist for using “autotune modulators” and “drum loops” at a prior music fest: “A lot of these mainstream acts run backing tracks. Like I’ll never forget, I won’t say who the act is, but I think it was in South Carolina at the Myrtle Beach one… the band who played after us, that dude had six autotune…
