Charles Kelly Charts Course For The Driver Tour Hitting The Road November 28th

Charles Kelly is most known as one third of Lady Antebellum, now he's taking the reigns on his very first solo project with the release his new single "The Driver" featuring Dierks Bentley and Eric Paslay going to radio Monday October 19th. The Driver already is getting hailed as the most talked about releases of the year from Billboard and other media outlets. I've personally have heard the song and can say it was beautifully written, it's tailor made for Kelly's voice, and with Bentley and Paslay on the song has a quality and endurance listeners will love. Among releasing the single Kelly will hit the road starting November 28th to support the solo project and up coming album. The 22 city club tour's first stop will be The House of Blues in Cleveland, Ohio and Kelly is excited to say the least. This is new territory for Kelly which is exciting and a little nerve racking at the same time considering he's stepping out from his family and band mates Hillary Scott and Dave Haywood. The Driver Tour made sense and with partnering with Enterprise Brand Marketing the sponsorship makes an excellent match.

Casey James Room To Breathe On New Music

All Rights Reserved, Courtesy of 19/Columbia Nashville

It's been more than two years since his debut album now Casey James readies a new album and a new direction in his life as a person,  musician,artist and entertainer. One shouldn't pigeon hole James who's much more than just a  singer song writer. The growth and maturity shows in his style and artistry. The first single release on the highly anticipated sophomore album yet to be announced, "Fall Apart" was a song he heard from his producer. Written by Zach and Josh Carter of KINGSTON along with Will Bowden came about on inspiration in an earlier interview with KINGSTON ( see KINGSTON interview on the next page) James was so intent on having the song as it resonated with him. One who has heard "Fall Apart" the lyrics ring true to moving on from a broken heart or torn relationship. Several can relate.
Currently on a state to state radio tour James previews new material, one song that will appear on the soon to be album "Living Room" has a bluesy,southern country vibe. Again it's eminent on the direction James takes  lyrically and musically in either choosing material or writing his own. In the two plus years Casey's views have changed yet when it comes down to it he's the same person he was just 5 years ago on the indicated reality TV music competition American Idol, James third place finish was just the beginning of a career fans knew early on. As myself saw much more than a musician, someone who's faced adversity and the growing challenges men his age deal with, it's human nature, and clearly Casey has risen above it all in faith. What more can be is the sense of humor and not taking himself so seriously as he recently sat down with Big D and Bubba In The Morning Show Monday March 30th, the day "Fall Apart" impacted radio. Casey discussed a number of topics and one on a friend recommending a supplement he should try, he explains "Not only does this green concoction smell like grass it tastes like it. This is cows food, not something any human should drink, so I tried it," he laughs. D and Bubba simultaneously burst saying, "maybe it came from cow stock." Laughing as I did thought, okay here is country music's biggest Goobers in one room having just a good ole time. Nothing wrong with it either making the morning show that much better. James brings up to discussion the process a bit on this album which was clearly getting it right, all that he has gone through in these past two years to get this album together. "The growing up I did to where I am now is in this music", he explained. James is so excited fans are bursting at the seams to when the album will be complete and ready to hear in it's entirety. From radio station to radio station to fan chats, Q & A's Casey's itching to hit the road more in 2015, and already have several shows coming up in the next few months.

Bucky Covington Releases New Single BUZZIN' As An Independent Artist

Many artists today have found a place independently in country music, Bucky Covington has truly found his place, it simply fits him and is thrilled to release his brand new single BUZZIN' to country radio.BUZZIN', the lead single from Bucky's current project expected out later this year, is the perfect summer-time theme song. Written by Due West's Brad Hull and produced by Covington himself and Dale Oliver will be delivered to country radio this week via PlayMPE and CDX, it will bring Covington's fans a brand new and exciting side twist to his vocal style. Expect the unexpected from Bucky Covington.

After much thought and consideration decided to go the independent route last year. Already 2014 is shaping up for Bucky who's  currently in studio wrapping up his new independent project, which he is co-producing with Grammy nominated Dale Oliver, and gearing up for upcoming tour dates. Covington's plan is to release an EP showcasing his new sound in the fall, which is around the time of the expected birth of his first child.

Covington's career at this point isn't stagnant who has garnered 3 consecutive top 10 hits with "A Different World", "I'll Walk" and "It's Good To Be Me" from his self titled debut album. Bucky's current video "Drinking Side of Country" featuring Shooter Jennings has reached more than a million hits via YouTube.

I say Covington has the right stuff who has a firm grip on music, career and family.

One can't resist listening to the fiery red head Jo Dee Messina who's music is just as fun as she is. ME is Messina's seventh studio album who's given us plenty of hits since the late nineties from "Bring On The Rain" with Tim McGraw, "Bye, Bye" ,"Heads Carolina, Tails California" and "Burn". One can expect the unexpected from Jo Dee. On ME Messina sure tells it like it is from her current single "Peace Sign" to the new single release "A Woman's Rant". Bringing on some woman empowerment for the every day woman who can sure relate. Messina sure brings the goods singing such strong songs.

Jerrod Niemann has brought us the hit singles "Lover, Lover", "One More Drinkin' Song", What Do You Want From Me" and "Shinin' On Me". Since his debut in 2010 Niemann not only found his niche performing he found an artistry all his own. The music speaks for itself Jerrod has explained in interviews that it is listening to the instrumental side of the music, incorporating percussion and horns to the music, that is what it is from Niemann. In his third studio album High Noon due in stores March 25th Jerrod keeps his fun loving rowdy self on the songs "Donkey" and his current single " Drink To That All Night". Climbing the charts with "Drink To That All Night" Jerrod knows how to relate with fans and the growing business with the younger generation. I say Niemann knows how to pick them.
