There aren’t too many people I can think of who could even begin to fill Tom Petty’s shoes after his legendary four-decade-spanning career. And while Chris Stapleton certainly wouldn’t have been the first name to pop into my head, I’ve gotta admit, he was a pretty epic choice for the Heartbreakers’ first reunion since the passing of their legendary frontman. Last night at the 25th Annual Americana Honors & Awards, the “White Horse” singer had the immense honor of joining the original band (Mike Campbell, Benmont Tench, Stan Lynch, and Ron Blair) for an epic performance of some of their…

On the off chance someone reading this personally knows Tracy Lawrence, please show him this video ASAP because I have a feeling he’d thoroughly enjoy it. For those who’ve never seen the 90’s country music staple’s podcast, TL’s Road House, there’s not one episode I’ve seen where the two-time Grammy nominee doesn’t bring up Zach Top. And rightfully so, because if there’s one artist who’s been able to make it big by reviving the legendary country sound of Lawrence’s era, it would be Top. On each hour-ish-long episode, TL invites various country music stars and songwriters onto the show and…

After over seven years of having the word ‘butt’ plastered across his wrist, it seems Jason Aldean has finally removed the tattoo fans once roasted him for. Back in 2019, the “Tattoos On This Town” singer added to his collection of many inked pieces, paying tribute to his son, daughter, and wife Brittany with three small designs across his body. Well, unfortunately for the latter, after Aldean shared a shot of her abbreviated name “Britt” drawn out in cursive across his wrist, fans couldn’t help but point out that the r and the i blended together into a u. Hence…

It’s now officially been more than three weeks since Dolly Parton’s passing, and as expected, the Queen of Country is finally getting a televised tribute of her own. The legendary singer, songwriter, actress, entrepreneur, and philanthropist— whose resume could easily take up an entire page— shook the world on Tuesday, August 25, when news of her death broke across social media and beyond. It was one of those rare moments many of us will probably always remember exactly where we were when we first heard the news. In the days that followed, seemingly everyone from fellow artists and celebrities to…

While most festivals have yet to roll out their 2027 lineups, Carolina Country Music Fest already has a major leg up, announcing none other than Florida Georgia Line as its first official headliner. The news comes just one day after the fan-favorite duo announced their return to the road with 12 festival stops planned for 2027 on their Anything Goes Again: The Festival Tour. And as of this morning, CCMF is now the first of those dozen festivals to officially announce FGL is cruisin’ down to the Carolina coast as a headliner for the four-day event. The boys previously kicked…

And the crowd goes… mild. Welcome back to another installment of Jelly Roll’s great fall-off of 2026. Safe to say this year has not been filled with kind press for the 41-year-old rapper-turned-singer, formerly known as Jason DeFord. Between the inescapable news of his divorce from Bunnie XO, uncomfortable-to-watch performances on his Blue Dot Fever-ridden tour, and most recently his Jimmy Kimmel comments, the Jelly Roll fatigue is real. With that being said, I apologize, but we need to talk about his most recent public appearance following his viral hosting gig on Kimmel’s late-night show a few weeks ago. After…
