Newest Additions:


Ashley McBryde – “Learned To Lie” – You knew that Ashley McBryde would have a few of those devastating and well-written songs that she’s known for her her new album The Devil I Know. “Learned To Lie” might be one of her best, and it’s all about recognizing the devils inside ourselves, and how they got there.

Tyler Childers – “Rustin’ In The Rain” – Childers really sets off his new album with the opening title track. The ultra twangy intro and the country swagger helps underscore how his new album is the traditional country entry into his catalog.

Tony Logue – “Thundertown” – Tony Logue is a blue collar/Rust Belt/Heartland/country music hero in the making. Anyone who’s interfaced with his music will attest to this. “Thundertown” off his new album The Crumbs is a great example. As Tony says in the song, he doesn’t “play” music. He goes to battle.

Scott Southworth – “Here Comes The Night” – If you like your traditional country music served up straight with no chaser—yet still with enough character and originality to keep it cool—Scott Southworth is a guy you should have in your catalog. “Here Comes The Night” is off his new album Comin’ Round To Honky Tonk Again.

The Country Side of Harmonica Sam – “This Train” – It remains quite uncanny, but completely true that one of the greatest interpreters of classic country music in the modern context comes directly from Sweden. The Country Side of Harmonica Sam is spellbinding with their sonic accuracy and reverence for original country. New album out September 29th.

Tony Jackson – “Do You Remember Country Music” – For years now, the voice of Tony Jackson has been one of the greatest untapped resources in country music just waiting to be exploited. That’s about to change on Sept. 29th when he releases his new album I’ve Got Songs To Sing. How loyal is Tony Jackson to his country roots? Just listen to “Do You Remember Country Music.”

Zach Bryan feat. The War & Treaty – “Hey Driver” – It’s been the collaborations on Zach Bryan’s new self-titled album that have separated themselves from the field. His song with Kacey Musgraves went #1 in all of music, and this song with The War and Treaty is one of the standouts on the album as well. It’s also made Zach responsible for the greatest chart success for Kacey, The War and Treaty, and Sierra Ferrell as well.

Nick Shoulders – “Blue Endless Highway” – Nick Shoulders is the singing, yodeling, whistling, mulleted and mustachioed country music weirdo freak of our time. There is no competition, comparable, or peer to Nick Shoulders. He’s a subgenre all unto himself.
