In October of 2020, The Band Perry — siblings Kimberly, Reid, and Neil — headed down to Dallas, Texas, to try and give their recording days as family trio one last shot. Unmoored during Covid lockdown and slowly finding their way back to Tennessee from their shared Sherman Oaks, California, house, they made a series of demos with Paul Cauthen’s producing team that never saw the light of day. Kimberly Perry was a fan of Cauthen’s 41 Project, especially his “Cocaine Country Dancing,” and thought the feel might suit them and their Southern gothic inclinations.

Morgan Wallen can’t believe he gets to work with country singers like Miranda Lambert and Eric Church.
The musician chats to Et Canada’s Carlos Bustamante about his new album One Thing At A Time, sharing of whether he can just call someone like Lambert up: “Now I can!”
The pair worked together with Nicolle Galyon on the track “Thought You Should Know”.
Wallen recalls, “At that point actually, that was the first time I’d written with Miranda. I had the idea for the song and I came in with a verse and chorus, I think. I was originally going to write with Nicolle Galyon that day, because I wanted a woman’s perspective for that song.
“Nicole was like, ‘Do you care if Miranda comes and writes?’ [I was like] no of course not, that would be awesome,” he continues, insisting that working with “two of the best female writers...

Nicolle Galyon has ordered dinner out almost every night this week. This would not normally be a very notable occurrence for a busy songwriter, business owner, and now solo artist, but there’s a line on the opening track of Firstborn, Galyon’s debut record, that is haunting her a little.
“I sing ‘a high five for the girl making dinner,’ but I have Postmated the past five nights,” Galyon says, sitting cross-legged on a couch in her living room in jeans and a white t-shirt, her hair tucked under a tan baseball cap.

Blake Shelton has announced his first full-length studio record in nearly four years. The Oklahoma native will release Body Language on May 21st. The album is the follow-up to Shelton’s 2017 long-player Texoma Shore.

On Thursday, President-elect Joe Biden outlined a stimulus plan that included, among other things, increasing the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour. Later the same night, Blake Shelton’s auspiciously titled new song “Minimum Wage” was released to the public — not surprisingly, it doesn’t attempt to unpack the vital issue of income inequality in America.
Instead, it’s a story about love, not working-class wages. Written by Nicolle Galyon, Corey Crowder, and Jesse Frasure, “Minimum Wage” is Shelton’s first new music of 2021. Borrowing a little of its verse...

There are guys in country music who struggle to be funny, and then there’s Dierks Bentley. In his new video for “Gone,” the singer earns easygoing, natural laughs by gamely casting himself as doomed TV characters. He’s a Game of Thrones knight incinerated by a dragon, a MacGyver hero who snips the wrong time-bomb wire, and a Fabio pitchman blinded by perfume. He even does his best Dwight Schrute in an homage to The Office.
The clip also puts Bentley in his element: onstage with his band at his Nashville honky-tonk Whiskey Row.

The Cma Awards may get the lion’s share of the attention in country music this week, thanks mainly to its three hours in primetime on ABC, but Tuesday night’s Bmi Awards exude a certain kind of unmatchable cool.
Only in the confines of Bmi’s Nashville parking garage — where tables, a stage, and multiple bars are set up on the hard concrete — would you see the Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir, in a black poncho and hat, and Margo Price in a rhinestone suit singing Dwight Yoakam’s “Fast as...

Next week, the Cma Awards will make an attempt to change the deep gender imbalance in country music by devoting their entire show to women. Hosted by Carrie Underwood, Reba McEntire, and Dolly Parton, the night will “celebrate the legacy of women” within the genre, according to Cma Chief Executive Officer Sarah Trahern. It’s the culmination of a year that saw female artists pushing harder than ever to support each other and be heard, from the Highwomen’s “pirate ship” to Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, Kacey Musgraves, Brandi Carlile,...

Stephanie Quayle was working in the studio with her producers Julian King and Mark Wright, trying to get all the parts for the song “If I Was a Cowboy” figured out, when they decided to add a bit of rumbling baritone guitar to the mix. It was like something clicked.
“All the little hairs on our arms raised up,” says Quayle, whose new Ep — also titled If I Was a Cowboy — is officially out today. “That’s how you know, Ok, something’s about to happen.”

The Country Music Association went with an all-female hosting lineup for this year’s show, and that woman-celebrating theme continued when nominations for the 53rd annual Cma Awards were announced Wednesday morning: Maren Morris led the pack with six nods.
Morris’ sophomore album, “Girl,” is up for album of the year, while the song of the same name, a recent No. 1 at country radio, is nominated in the single, song and music video categories. Her collaboration with Brothers Osborne, “All My Favorite People,” got a nod for musical event of the year. Morris also received a nomination for female vocalist of the year.
In short, Morris got a nomination in every category she possibly could have — with the exception of entertainer of the year. The Cma continues to reserve that top category for veteran acts with a lot of arena tours under their belt, even if that means leaving out...

Darrin Bradbury, “Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs”
Cult favorite Darrin Bradbury makes his Anti- Records debut with Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs, produced by the Milk Carton Kids’ Kenneth Pattengale and due out this September. The album’s title track dishes up Bradbury’s signature gumbo of countrified talking blues, oddball folk, and black humor, with some stoner-worthy philosophy about the origins of microwaves tossed into the pot.

Billy Currington offers a rejoinder to the argument that men don’t pay attention in his new single “Details,” released on Friday. It’s the Georgia native’s follow-up to “Bring It on Over,” which was released in September 2018.
“I couldn’t tell ya, what I did today, or the day before,” sings Currington in “Details,” which was written by Nicolle Galyon, Mark Trussell, and Stephen Lee Olsen. But this little lapse of memory is just a pump-fake before he pulls up for the jumper: “Baby I’m in tune...

“I might be heart broke, but that don’t mean I gotta stay home,” sings Runaway June’s Naomi Cooke in the country trio’s sprightly hit single “Buy My Own Drinks,” obliterating any expectations that she might be the type to waste time crying over someone. Cooke, along with singing partners Hannah Mulholland and Jennifer Wayne (the granddaughter of the Duke himself) are bound to get some Dixie Chicks comparisons with their brand of harmony-drenched country-pop, but their debut album Blue Roses offers plenty to distinguish them from that multi-Platinum trio.

Dan + Shay performed their Grammy-winning hit “Tequila” at the 61st Grammy Awards on Sunday night.
The duo of Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney chose to strip away the pop-ready production of the crossover smash, with Mooney singing and playing piano, Smyers backing him up on acoustic guitar and a string section filling in the gaps. Delivering the song on a compact circular stage near the center of the arena, it was a performance of subtle elegance, which nonetheless didn’t stop Mooney from hitting and holding a huge note to cap off their star turn.

Last year Bruno Mars was the king of the Grammy Awards winning all six of his races. This year, one of the artists he bested for many of those prizes, Kendrick Lamar, leads with a whopping eight nominations. Many of these bids come for his work on the “Black Panther” soundtrack and the chart-topping single “All the Stars.” Likewise, Lady Gaga earned four nominations for “Shallow,” the love ballad from her film “A Star is Born.” Both of their songs also contend at the Academy Awards.
The four general field categories — Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist — are the top prizes at the Grammys. While the nominees are drawn from across a variety of music genres, the winners of these Grammy Awards tend to be the biggest pop and rock acts like Mars, Adele, Taylor Swift, and Mumford and Sons.
