About the song, Hilton says, "A long time buddy of mine confided in me one night that he and his wife were gonna split up. He was still in shock. I was too, they seemed like the couple who had it all, you know? I couldn’t shake this feeling that maybe it’s not “if” we’ll lose people we love but “when”."

 Courtesy of the Artist Following a very busy fall that saw Elise Davis open shows for Ray LaMontagne, SUSTO, and Lissie, the Nashville-based singer-songwriter has just announced a headline tour and support tour with Donovan Woods in 2019. Find a full list of tour dates below and on her website.
Earlier this year, Davis released her critically-acclaimed sophomore album Cactus, which was just named one of the The Bitter Southerner's 30 Best Southern Albums of 2018. Cactus is now available via Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon. Men's Journal recently named Davis one of the "Hottest New Artists of Fall 2018" and said, "Lucinda Williams + Big Star + The Breeders = Elise Davis."  For Immediate Release – Ray Charles’s Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, Volumes 1 & 2 are major landmarks in American culture. Charles demonstrated that great songs with signature performances work in all genres. “I Can’t Stop Loving You” was a standard in country, soul and R&B, as he proved. Modern Sounds also brought America together during the Sixties’ civil rights movement. Charles became one of the first recording artists to have ownership and complete control of the masters. Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music has been listed among the greatest albums of all time, along with the Beatles, Dylan, Motown, Springsteen, Hendrix and the Beach Boys.
These groundbreaking albums, Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, Vols. 1 & 2 are being reissued on digital and CD on February 22nd, 2019 via Concord Records, also becoming available for the first time on streaming platforms. Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, Vol. 1 will be re-released on vinyl for the first time since 2012, with a deluxe edition version containing both Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 on high-fidelity, 180g vinyl. Pre-order the album here and watch "Take These Chains From My Heart" from 1963 here. This past fall, Ray was honored by the Grand Ole Opry with An Opry Salute to Ray Charles, with performances celebrating the iconic Modern Sounds tracks and his contributions to country music. In addition, Charles was inducted into both the Austin City Limits Hall of Fame, a program on which he performed multiple times, and the DownBeat Jazz Hall of Fame.  WATCH “FREIGHT TRAIN” HERE

Filmed in “Big Sky Country” Montana, the video pays tribute to nostalgia, friendship and adventure. Several prominent up-and-coming actors are featured, including: Jack Quaid (son of Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan, whose credits include The Hunger Games, Steven Soderbergh’s Logan Lucky, HBO’s Vinyl, directed by Martin Scorsese, and Amazon’s upcoming series The Boys), Sasha Frolova (Red Sparrow), and Erin Moriarty (Blood Father, The Miracle Mile). The video was directed by Laurence Jacobs, who has directed and produced videos for artists including: Andrew Bird, Steve Martin, Elvis Costello, O.A.R., and Valerie June. Los Angeles, CA - As part of an ongoing campaign to commemorate Creedence Clearwater Revival’s 50th anniversary, Craft Recordings is pleased to present an official short form audio visual project offering a fresh take on their timeless standard, “Have You Ever Seen The Rain.”Following the “Fortunate Son” video moment earlier this year, “Have You Ever Seen The Rain” conveys a wholly different dimension of Creedence Clearwater Revival's enduring relevance – separate from politics or American traditions, something more personal and eternally youthful. Filmed in “Big Sky Country” Montana, the project pays tribute to nostalgia, friendship and adventure. Directed by Laurence Jacobs—who has directed and produced videos for artists including Andrew Bird, Steve Martin, Elvis Costello and Valerie June—the project features Jack Quaid (The Hunger Games, Logan Lucky, HBO’s Vinyl and Amazon’s upcoming series, The Boys), Sasha Frolova (FOX’s Red Sparrow, Netflix’s Snowpiercer, KENZO’s The Everything) and Erin Moriarty (Marvel’s Jessica Jones, Amazon’s The Boys). "I knew I wanted to tell a coming-of-age story,” Jacobs explains. “Something distinctly real that encapsulated identity. Not teenage years, but specifically your early 20s when you’re still growing and trying to become someone.” The result is a story that captures early adulthood’s wild rush of nostalgia and freedom, mixed with heartbreak and melancholy–emotions of which the song is emblematic.  “High Wire” Available Now → http://radi.al/AmyMcCarleyHighWire

Credit: Mike Brooks On the heels of their well-revered 2017 album The Native and recent signing to Bloodshot Records, Vandoliers will release their third album and label debutForever on February 22, 2019 (pre-order). Rolling Stone Country is premiering the album’s first single, “Troublemaker.”
Produced and recorded by Adam Hill (producer for recent albums from Low Cut Connie, The Bo-Keys, Deer Tick, Don Bryant, Zeshan B) at American Recording Studios in Memphis, TN, the band’s third album (and first with Bloodshot) Forever is a mix of youthful and defiant punk, rugged Red Dirt country, and vibrant Tejano. The album’s 10 songs blend emblematic rock ‘n’ roll with bold horns, violin, and a slather of twang reflecting where the band is from, where they have been and, eventually, where they’ll be headed. It’s regional and universal all the same.  Husband and wife duo Blue Honey, consisting of Troy Brooks and Kassie Jordan-Brooks, are excited to announce their upcoming sophomore album, Sweet Rebellion, is now available for pre-order on iTunes today. The pre-order comes at a discounted price and with two instant gratification tracks, "August Without Us" and "Can You See Me." The album will be available on January 25, 2019.
"We are more excited about this long awaited album than we’ve been for any of our projects in the past. Although we love all our projects, this one really showcases what you would see in a live Blue Honey show," says Kassie. "From the guitar riffs to the lyrical content, to the focus on vocal harmony, this self produced album is just 'us.' We truly hope our fans love it as much as we do!"  "The Vegabonds soar with catchy, desert-tinged rocker 'Everything I Need'...one of the standout tracks on the upcoming album. The song takes on a sort of desert meets surf rock vibe and the band spaces out with psychedelic instrumentals and an insanely catchy chorus. The song is vaguely reminiscent of Tom Petty and even Chris Isaak but with a tinge of Southern boogie. There's also a fiery guitar solo that leads into a spacier, slower groove and captures the depth of what The Vegabonds are truly capable of."
--GlideMagazine.com, December 7, 2018 THE VEGABONDS--the Nashville-based alternative southern rock band--are gearing up to release V, their upcoming full-length album on January 18 via withBlue Élan Records. Today (12/7) they've partnered with GlideMagazine.com to unveil a lyric video for their new single, "Everything I Need." Click here to watch the animated, outlaw-themed video. "'Everything I Need' was written after a cross country tour from Nashville to California and back in late 2016," says Daniel Allen of THE VEGABONDS. "It was a music and comedy tour, so we were on the road with comedians the whole time, and every night was completely unique and different. Our stops in Las Vegas and L.A. were the main inspirations for this song. It's based on all the characters we met on tour in those towns, and the experiences we went through as a band and individuals. 'Everything I Need' is fast and full speed from the start which is the same way that whole tour was." |
