Shout out to Theo Von for the assist on giving us a sneak peek into a few unreleased tracks from Ella Langley’s upcoming album, Dandelion. During an appearance on Von’s This Past Weekend Podcast, Langley allowed him to choose any song to preview from the album (not including the already dropped “Choosin’ Texas,” “Loving Life Again,” “Dandelion,” and “Be Her”). He started off by picking what already sounds like a surefire standout from the album, as well as one of the first slower, more somber songs from this previously introduced flouncy summer album. While Langley’s Billboard Hot 100 success, “Choosin’…

If you’ve been around since her pre-“Choosin Texas” fame, Ella Langley’s bangs weren’t always a staple to her look.

Riley Green’s big acting debut is about to hit TV screens very soon, and his new Marshals’ role has already made waves on the internet– despite the producers’ original hesitations. Thanks to a little nudging from the show’s lead star (Kayce Dutton) and recently transitioned country music singer, Luke Grimes, his now co-star was able to help Green land this new acting role. Preparing for his recently released debut self-titled album, Grimes and Green had developed a writing relationship.

As if today can’t get any sadder, reminiscing on the loss of country music legend Merle Haggard ten years ago today, to add to your tears, take a look back at this incredible performance alongside the late Toby Keith. In November 2005, CMT hosted their star-studded Outlaws concert with none other than David Allan Coe, Jack Ingram, Shelby Lynne, Billie Joe Shaver, and, of course, Haggard and Keith. The latter two took the stage together for an epic performance of Haggard’s 1970 hit “The Fightin’ Side Of Me.” The track, written by Haggard himself alongside his backup band, The Strangers,…
