Need Something To Do? Listen to Brenna Bone

​Brenna Bone returns with her second single “What Do I Do Now?” Inspired by the loss of her close friend Tyler Covato, the song is relatable to anyone who’s lost someone close to them.
 
Brenna is originally from Pennsylvania. A performer, she competed in cheer and also participated in dance and choir. In college, her friends were looking for an extra singer for their band when Brenna volunteered. She was hooked ever since. Following in the footsteps of her idols, Martina McBride, Carrie Underwood, and Kelly Clarkson, Brenna moved to Nashville. There she’s had the opportunity to meet and collaborate with many, including her roommate Christina. However, it is her country rock sound that sets her apart.  Brenna is most proud of staying true to herself telling us, "I haven’t changed who I am as a person, and the kind of artist that I want to be. For example, I’ve had people suggest that I change my artist name. “Bone” is my real last name and it’s a name that I’m proud of. I think it fits for the vibe that I’m going for!"

Moving forward, Brenna is working on new music for next year. You can find Brenna’s music on all digital platforms and her socials at @BrennaBone.

​Queue up the new EP from Samara Yung. Her fifth studio album, “Things I Can’t Turn Off” takes you on the journey of a relationship and ultimately a breakup. Real stories Samara notes, “As these songs came in from publishers, I couldn’t turn them off. I loved each of these melodies, stories and songs for each a separate reason. If you listen to these songs front to back, it tells a story. These are the feelings we all feel, and we shouldn’t have to turn them off. It’s life and a part of the journey. I hope each of these songs speak to you, as they spoke to me and that you can’t turn them off, too.”
 
Growing up with a dad who was a musician, Sarmara often practiced with her dad’s band. In addition to music, Samara was a competitive figure skater as a child. Skating helped her feel comfortable as a performer. In fact, Samara loves festivals and how everyone is there to have a good time. In the past, she’s performed at Dauphin's Countryfest, Extreme Mudfest and the Raymore Summer Slam.

From small-town bar to the big stage, Alberta’s Mariya Stokes is making a name for herself in the industry and supporting her fellow female artists along the way. Growing up, Stokes spent a lot of time in her parent’s bar sneaking in on Friday afternoons to perform with the local bands. At the age of 18, she moved to Calgary to pursue music full time. Her country-soul tone resembles that of her idols Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris, and The Chicks. A songwriter as well, Stokes processes her emotions into song. Always writing in her journal, her most recent single “Rebound” was based of the line “She’s the one that you get when the one that got away is already gone.” Stokes has also written for CCMA nominees Leaving Thomas and Celia Palli. 
 
Wanting to create an inclusive space for her community, Stokes performed at a Queer Event at the Palace Theater along with Nice Horse and Ru-Paul Drag Race’s Trixie Mattel. She’s also an artist in residence for the Women’s Center of Calgary. There she hosts writing workshops for women. She also worked with the Calgary Drop-In and Rehab Center called “Shelter from The Storm,” writing original songs, poems, and stories that captured the essence of the community. An album was released as a result in 2015 which featured her song “Lucky.”  Stokes has also been involved in creating coat drives for the center. 
 
In time for the holiday season, Stokes plans to re-release “Christmas, Arizona” to Canadian Country radio. In 2021, she will be releasing follow up singles to “Rebound” and an EP once touring resumes. You can find Mariya’s music on all digital platforms and on our website here.

And we’re certain that this livestream will introduce even more of Europe’s country music fans to our show and to some of the most talented women in country music today.
