September is truly one of the most underrated months for music festivals. As the weather begins to cool while the energy of summer still lingers, it’s the perfect time to enjoy your favorite country artists on a weekend getaway. Pair that with the world’s largest bourbon and food festival, and you have an ideal four-day experience. For those also salivating at this idea, Bourbon and Beyond in Louisville, Kentucky, has just announced its lineup for this year’s festival. Running from Thursday, September 24, through Sunday, September 27, the event will take place at the Kentucky Expo Center and feature major…

Who would have thought that a Treaty Oak Revival concert would have me weepy-eyed on a Wednesday morning? The Texas rock-country band kick-started their West Texas Degenerates Tour on February 5 and has a packed schedule ahead of them with dates lined up until August. You truly never know what’s going to happen at one of their energy-packed shows, from getting soaked in the splash zone during Boomtown to even witnessing a pre-”See You In Court” engagement. Most recently, during their February 14 show in Columbia, South Carolina, lead singer Sam Canty took a moment to honor a fan who…

With Megan Moroney’s upcoming album, Cloud 9, set to release in just two days, the “Tennessee Orange” singer celebrated with an intimate performance alongside a few special guests. In true Nashville mixing pot fashion, iHeart Country hosted an event last night, February 17, featuring Moroney, Kane Brown, and Christian artist Brandon Lake. A clip shared by Wichita’s 102.1 The Bull shows the trio seated on stools across a low-key stage, delivering a stripped-down rendition of Moroney’s October 2025 single, “Beautiful Things.” The heartfelt track, inspired by Moroney’s younger niece, was one of the first few singles to be released ahead…

It’s honestly so criminal that Zach Top has yet to release an official collaboration. As one of the hottest names in country music, Top already has two albums and a self-titled EP under his belt, and yet not a single featured artist appears on them. The closest he’s come is his three-track collaboration with Billy Strings on Me & Billy. While that project was spectacular, there’s no denying that Top’s rich country vocals would lend themselves beautifully to a ‘90s female-fueled duet.  Think something along the lines of Brad Paisley and Allison Krauss’ iconic hit “Whiskey Lullaby” but with Zach…

This performance hands down wins the award for making you stop dead in your tracks and listen in awe. During last night’s fourth episode of American Idol Season 24, the final set of introductory auditions took place at Belmont University in Nashville, and one singer had the judges mesmerized. 22-year-old Bella Emry, a waitress from Bend, Oregon, captivated the panel of Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie with her stripped-down performance of Morgan Wallen’s “I’m A Little Crazy.” Emry noted pre-performance that her live singing skills had never left the small stages of school talent shows or her church.…

Imagine going to school on a Monday morning and getting to brag to all your friends that you played guitar at a Treaty Oak concert over the weekend. That’s some pretty epic street cred for a teenager like Ace Canady, Treaty Oak Revival’s youngest honorary band member. At their show this past Saturday, Feb 14, the little rocker joined the band with his electric guitar for a performance of their 2023 track, “Fishnets.” Crazy enough, this is Ace’s second show with Treaty Oak and another addition to his growing list of other big shows he’s taken part in alongside artists…
