New Music From Billy Currington, Phil Vassar, Randy Houser & More

Billy Currington who's topped the charts with "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right", "Good Directions","People Are Crazy", "That's How Country Boys Roll" and  Pretty Good At Drinkin' Beer" makes his way back into country radio with a brand new single impacting radio March 18,2013. "Hey Girl" is the first single from Currington's fifth studio album due out later this year.
"Hey Girl" is a far stretch from Currington's previous hit singles which will in fact bring in a new batch of fans.

The wholesome warm inviting personality of Phil Vassar breaths freshness in country music.
Vassar's soulful sound truly identifies with listeners, to pigeon hole him as a country Christian artist is well under estimated, Vassar is far from it incorporating his soulful, rhythm and blues country sound to the growing field of country music. Phil brings inspiration, hope and good ole positive country to growing audiences alike.
From the hits "Carlene", "American Child", "Just Another Day In Paradise", "In A Real Love" and "Don't Miss Your Life" Vassar returns to  country music with a new single 
"Love Is Alright" to impact radio March 18,2013.

Listen to "Love Is Alright" here on RodeoWave

The undeniable prolific singer songwriter Randy Houser charted success with his first single How Country Feels from his latest album of the same name. And as if this was a clear indication already we'll see Houser expand his country music genes even further.
The newest single "Runnin' Outta Moonlight" has recently impacted radio with 41 stations added in it's first week, no doubt "Runnin' Outta Moonlight" will mark the second highest single release from a male vocalist this year.

The Year In Country Music 2011



As we come to a close on 2011 let's look back on what was the best year ever in country music. Jason Aldean is rising to country music fame,but don't let that fool you, the My Kinda Party artist is soaking in what was the best year ever for him, his family and band. Winner of CMA's album of the year and musicial event of the year and ACA winner of album of the year. The party is just getting started, Aldean will ring in the new year on his first headling tour.2012 will prove to be another fantastic year for Jason Aldean and fans. Let's get the party started!

Taylor Swift keeps breaking charts and breaking hearts,not figurativly speaking. Swift still shows us how to run a business,this savy business woman released her own fragrance Wonderstruck, toured the world and still manages to keep a level head through it all. It's no wonder she's CMA's entertainer of the year and Billboards Artist of the year.This birthday girl will have a lot to celebrate on her 22nd birthday December 13th. In 2012 Ms. Swift will bring new music to her fans and has recently released a new song titled "Ours", a video for the song has recently been released to all major outlets. Taylor is all smiles these days.

Kellie Pickler, she's caught the eye of many and it shows, the recent newlywed, Mrs. Jacobs has been on the radar on many Christmas specials this holiday season and landed a role on the CW's 90210.
Picker-Jacobs is releasing her highly anticipated 3rd album January 24,2012 "100 Proof" and 2012 will be the year of the pickle. Pickler has toured 4 years with service of the USO, she is highly active and will surely make plans to ring in the new year with yet another tour overseas for our military men and women. For any updates and information on Kellie Pickler visist her official web site at The Official Kellie Pickler site and at Kellie Pickler Fans Site & Forum

Faith Hill is ready to make it back into country music after 6 years, the new single "Come Home" was released just this past November, fans can currently download the song on i-tunes. Hill will have new music and a new album to hit shelves in mid 2012. Lots of faith to come for all.

Rising star Sunny Sweeney has shown us the Texas honky tonker she is. Her debut album "Concrete" recieved rave reviews this year and is becoming a fast rising album in country music unless Scotty McCreey teen crazed fans pass it by.Not a chance,there's a lot of sun in Sunny's corner.

Rodney Atkins has found the beaten path in his career,the take the back road artist has flourshed musically and artistically in 2011. Atkins' music has speaken volumes to his fans, Farmer's Daughter, If Your Going Through Hell and Take The Back Road have all made an impact on those who follow the artist and his music.

Martina McBride and pro-active Breast Cancer Supporter released her 11th studio recorded album this year,she's been an embassador and leader for many beyond her music. Her voice is powerful for so much more. That true sense of self truly shows.


All of these artists and more,one I would not leave out, Toby Keith,the Red Solo Cup USO supporter and musician has paved the wave throughout the years. Keith is very much so our country music artist of the decade.
