The record that started it all. Before Eric Church was the certified country legend that he is today, setting out on record-breaking tours, winning ACM Awards and ruffling feathers with unique festival performances, he released his debut album, Sinners Like Me, 18 years ago today. Despite not being an absolute smash hit right out of the gate, Sinners Like Me has proven over the last 18 years that it has aged like fine wine. In fact, many of the deep cuts present on the record have remained cornerstones of Church’s live shows still today. “These Boots,” “Lightning” and “Livin’ Part of Life” are all regularly played by Church, reaching a new…

Another day, another crossover. Last night in what can only be described as a concert for the ages, Post Malone brought out the cavalry for his performance at Marathon Music Works in Nashville. Between performing his past hits such as “rockstar,” “Sunflower” and “Congratulations,” Post debuted a plethora of brand new country songs and brought out the likes of Blake Shelton, HARDY, Sierra Ferrell and Joe Nichols during the 14-song set. After performing his current hit, “Pour Me A Drink,” along with Shelton’s 2004 #1 hit, “Some Beach,” the 29-year-old singer/songwriter surprised the crowd by bringing out Nichols for a…

A burger and a grape sno-cone anyone? Does “Chattahoochee” even need an introduction? Arguably one of the most popular ’90s country songs and one of the most iconic in Alan Jackson’s legendary discography, the track has had an impact far beyond many popular songs from the era. From the instantly recognizable guitar riff in the intro to one of the most catchy choruses in the genre, “Chattahoochee” has solidified itself as a certified classic over the past 30 years. Written by Jackson and Jim McBride, “Chattahoochee” is a coming-of-age tale packed full of relatable albeit specific details and concepts. From lake days to lost loves, the track…

Today, she addressed the performance on Instagram, noting that she was drunk during and that she is currently checking herself into rehab. In the post, Andress said, “I’m not gonna bullsh*t y’all, I was drunk last night.…
